Reviews
u to the lady who cooked our omelette every morning. Delicious. In fact a big thank you to all the staff from the maids who make the beds to the waiters and front desk workers. They are all a great team and made our stay memorable.
The hotel itself is a somewhat older building, but appears to have had some modernisation work done, although a bit more is required to be able to justify a 5-star rating.
Room: Top Floor Deluxe Room, Harbour
Pros
- Nicely spaced out room
- Balcony was large but not exactly harbour facing. It was quite far to your left but still a nice view.
- clean, comfortable beds, amazing shower
- fantastic breakfast, cooked perfectly and a good selection. Fresh omelettes were perfection.
- A special shout out to the friendly older doorman and the gentleman behind the bar. You're a credit!
- Most Staff were *generally welcoming and helpful
- Live Music in the evenings was quite nice.
- Parking available
- Rooftop Pool, could be larger but if you go when it's quiet it's quite nice. Loved the panoramic view from there.
Cons:
- *My partner thought that one or two staff members were somewhat abrupt and impolite. I didn't encounter it myself but perhaps something to think about.
- Elevators are somewhat cramped, I imagine claustrophobics may struggle.
- Flickering lights several times throughout stay and a full on power cut on one occasion
- Balcony door did lock me out for a while and I had to use quite a lot of force to get back in.
- Safe was not working. I did a test lock first luckily, so didn't have anything locked in. Flagged to hotel staff for review when I checked out.
Room was excellent, plenty of room to swing a cat, king bed with a selection of 5 PILLOW TYPES!! Mini bar was stocked & also meals/ drinks to room & pool areas. Roof top/ harbour view of Heraklion was great, see video. Walk to restaurants & shops 4 minutes, coffee shops within 3 minutes & tastes great!
I recently stayed at this hotel for three nights with my tour group, Odysseys-Unlimited. I wish Odysseys-Unlimited would not book this hotel for its guests, because the hotel’s service and rooms were below standard. A couple of the front desk staff were unfriendly, which made me feel uncomfortable. For example, on my second day, I told the front desk that my room didn’t have water. The young man who answered the phone gave me a long lecture instead of sending me some water. When I got off the elevator, the hallway was so dark that I could hardly see the room numbers. I had no idea why they kept the hallway so dim, creating a gloomy and uncomfortable environment. My first room was small and dark like a prison cell. The second room was the same size but had a window; however, I had to keep the curtain closed because the room was exposed to other floors and buildings. Overall, my stay was terrible, and I want to warn potential guests that the pictures on the hotel's website might be photo-shopped.
But do not go for the half-board option. The food on offer was very poor. It was our worst meal in Greece by far.
