Hotels in Heraklio Town

I payed extra for bungalow with pool front. No regret there. Nice clean room with large balcony. Pools are large and with optimal temperature at least for me. Beach is really nice with sand and pebbles. There are large but smooth rocks in the sea itself, but only for 2 meters or so, than it is sand again. Restaurant has smaller variety of food, mainly for lunches, but dinners are better. The biggest...

We stayed here last week. Staffs are very nice, multilingual, the rooms are very clean despite the fact that there were many clients around. We also love and enjoyed our stay because there are greens everywhere and they updated our room at the beachfront. They were very organised with the covid protocols at the restaurant especially when everybody was there.

The best hotel in amoidara.

Excellent hotel. Exceptional price / quality. Great food. Friendly staff. Extensive grounds, lovely beach. Plenty of sunbeds. Shops in the grounds. Nearby village is a 20 minute walk. Not a lot to do in the evenings, could be an issue for some people.

Love this place! Ideal for families. Super breakfast Variety...there is food variety in general! Environmental friendly hotel. .

My best holidays of my life ! The food was amazing; the pools were ok even if one with salty water which might not be ok for everyone; the beach is one step from the hotel, there are beach sport available with sealing ; the proposed trips are so cool with montain 4x4, and a boat trip to Santorini Island; the kid's club is very creative and multi languages. Bref, I would return soon!

Was recommended for us to stay here, but won't be going back. Breakfast was reasonable, but they started removing it all 2 minutes after we sat down, 30 mins before it was due to close! Not happy Jan!! Rooms are OK But we had 2 single beds pushed together?? Balcony view of roof tops, great pizza place across road, small pizza is 48cm diameter & base/toppings tasty.

This was my first time in Heraklion. I stayed in this hotel for 11 days. My stay was very pleasant, the staff was extremely cordial, attentive and nice. Everyone was extremely helpful. The only issue I had was the smell of the towels, whatever vendor they use to wash the linens and towels, they need to change it. As the towels had a musty smell that was really awful. The staff changed my towels daily...

Wow amazing hotel! I enjoyed every second I was there! From the wonderful food at breakfast, by the pool and in the restaurant at dinner. Continues to the fun pool which is open from eight in the morning to eight in the evening, very convenient hours. Continues by saying that the hotel is sparkling clean and beautifully and elegantly designed. The location is very good, quite close to the airport,...

Stayed for 2 nights. We had a family room, which was quite nice and spacious with an extra bed, seating area and with a bathtub. The breakfast was nice but not very expansive. It has a really nice pool, but there are limited seating and sun beds. Would stay at this hotel again.

I recently stayed at this fantastic hotel and was thoroughly impressed. The staff were incredibly helpful, always ready to assist with any request. My room was well-appointed and very comfortable, making my stay extremely pleasant. The breakfast selection was excellent, offering a wide variety of delicious foods. I particularly enjoyed the Turkish delight in Reception, and the sample of ouzo in the...

Best hotel in Heraklion. Excellent location, breakfast and dining. Spacious rooms comfortable beds. Highly recommended

We came to this hotel for 4 nights due to our easy jet flight being cancelled. Our first room was extremely basic and not the nicest but did the job for an emergency room. We then found we needed to be here for another 3 nights. The man at the reception was extremely helpful with getting hold of easy jet etc and securing us a place to stay for the next 3 nights. The room we were then put in was nice...

We stayed at Vanisko Hotel for 3 nights. Everything about our experience was wonderful. The buffet breakfast was magnificent - fruit, vegetables, cheese, pastries, coffee, juice all the best quality. Everyone including the bar tenders, chefs, receptionists, and manger were wonderful to us. Should be 10 stars not five. Definitely the place to stay when in Heraklion.

The rooms are clean, spacious and modernly decorated. The breakfast is amazing, with great variety and lots of locally produced delicacies, as well as pancakes and crepes (depending on the day), which are usually not offered in most hotels. The pool is spacious and good for all the family, as it reaches good depths in some areas, but also has an area especially designed for kids. The location isn't...

Very good hotel, except the shower head is bad and the door seems to be broken so it’s extremely loud. The surrounding area is not that good. Very few restaurants to choose from and not a very pleasant view to see when walking. On the positive side there is a big grocery store just over the road and a small supermarket with good closing times and prices. The walk to the beach is just 5 minutes and...

Came from England for a week in Hotel Vanisko with family, a luxury feel as soon as you step into the hotel. Very clean, spotless in the lounge as well as the room which had clean sheets regularly, breakfast was delicious and staff were incredibly friendly. There was a very large swimming pool area as well. Will be returning

Amazing people and service. Breakfast was great we definitely enjoyed our stay there.

Nice place. However, the staff was very rude with us. We traveled with our 11 months girl and asked to kindly prepare our very own baby food, which needed to cook just 4 minutes in plain, boiling water. They refused saying that it wasn't possible. We were very frustrated, as we didn't expect such a bad treatment from a 4 stars hotel and didn't know what to do. Luckily, the restaurant nearby accepted...

We stayed at Ibis Styles for 1 night in August 2024, because due to our incoming flight being delayed we arrived late in the evening. We got upgraded to an Executive Room and all, from reception welcoming to check-out was absolutely perfect, the room was big and clean with all comforts and a quiet balcony. Breakfast is generous and includes local sweets, and there is also a supermarket on the lower...

Nice building, good sized rooms for a good price. Car park right below but costs 9 euro per day. Breakfast was standard but nice.

Excellent hotel. Rooms modern and spotless. Great shower! Got a free upgrade on arrival. Breakfast was excellent- so much choice. Staff were really helpful and made booking for us for a day trip to Spinalonga and gave us excellent restaurant recommendations. Don’t be put off by the black/dark stairwell; everything else makes up for this. And great location! Would definitely recommend a stay here.

Right in the center of the old town of Heraklion, a very comfortable and modern hotel. Convenient to everything. We had a car and the system for 'valet' parking in the garage was simple to use, 9 euro/day. Tip: pull right in to park to the "Central Parking" right next to the hotel when you arrive, just get your ticket stamped when you check in. Only negative was from time to time we smelled smoke...

At the ibis Styles hotel I booked a room for one night. The check-in was friendly and done quickly. I thought, that the room was clean and very spacious, but the bed wasn’t too comfortable for me, nevertheless I could sleep quite well. And unfortunately it was not too soundproof as you especially could hear the motorcycles from outside on the streets. Despite this I would stay here again.

Decent, clean rooms, free Wi-Fi but too modest and monotonous breakfasts and not always adequate dinners with a stingy owner who doesn't like his guests

Friendly staff. Good location

We have been at Marirena Hotel just some days ago and I would like to underline that everything was perfect. I was surprised because lots of people sent descriptions that are not real. Very friendly staff, perfect position near the beach, nice dinner with rice, pasta, meat and fish, lots of salads and vegetables. I really cannot understand why lots of people said never again. Me and my family...

Great staff happy boss 3 star hotel should be more Happy days

The staff was very nice. The room and the bathroom were clean. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was also great and with a nice view. The bathroom looks a bit older. Probably they renovated only the rooms. The air-conditioning was working a bit strange, maybe had some technical issue.

We only stayed for one night, it is simple, but nice. Near the city center, the fortress, the bus station, the harbour. The view from the restaurant is amazing.

Liked: Nice place near the port Pretty good location Helpful staff Cleanliness of the room Breakfast was nice (great staff there) + view from the restaurants is breathtaking Covid precautions (u feel safer) Bus station for direct ride to Knossos is 50m from the hotel Disliked: Really small shower Refrigerator is not exactly powerful, don't buy anything what needs to be frozen

small, but clean hotel with everything needed. Very nice breakfast place with seaview

Hotel in perfect place in the city, close to airport, ferry, and walking to the historic centre as well. Very helpful and friendly staff.

The hotel is a bit off the pedestrian city center but within walking distance to the bus stop to Knossos and the main bus station. The breakfast is served on the sixth floor with nice views of the port. Unfortunately, the breakfast room is not open-air, and there is freezing air conditioning. Nice breakfast, instead of the usual Lipton tea they offer a wide range of teapigs flavours, a very good brand...

Location, room, staff, breakfast, everything was great! and also they give a room when we arrived earlier than check-in! Thank you!

Very central and close to Port and shops. Easy to walk to Port. About 5 minutes walk with luggage. Clean and neat. Helpful reception.

Tucked nearby main shopping and not too far from bus station. This is easily walkable from the port. Staff was extra helpful in guiding us to local restaurant options, bus transit, and general information. Morning buffet breakfast was delicious and plentiful.

Staff do not respect the “do not disturb” light. They don’t use those door cards, so there is no other way to let them know. I’m glad I didn’t leave any cash out where it could have been mistaken as a tip

Very good location, the room was very clean. Breakfast was ok. We stayed here for only one night but it was a really nice hotel and I would come back!

Excellent location, extremely nice people, comfortable, clean, well equipped room, good breakfast, all at a very fair price - couldn’t find anything deserving less than 5*…

This hotel is in a great location, beds are comfortable, rooms are modern, even has a coffee pod machine. Fast hot water coming through an over head rain shower head. The safe costs 5 euros for your visit. Excellent lift. Will stay here again.

Excellent hotel. Despite the appearance of the surrounding area, the hotel is great and the rooms were recently renovated. They look clean, modern and the beds are very comfortable. The bathroom is lovely and the rooms offer all comforts you'd expect from a hotel. Location is amazing, a few minutes away from the city centre and the port. Parking in the area is a bit of a nightmare but luckily the hotel...

The location is beautiful, clean, neat, and well mentained. I do not recommend room 203 because the position is right under the concrete arch and it is very hot at night but otherwise rooms are ok, spacious, well placed with air conditioning and balcony to every one. Cleaning is made every other day and sheets are changed twice a week. Breakfast is ok maybe more diversity will do best, had fruits from...

We liked basically everything. The location is very good: it is near to restaurants and shops, to the beach and to the bus. The facilities: the kitchenette, the small playground for children, the pool which was clean and nice. The staff is very nice and helpful.

Excellent staff, pretty good accommodations and location. We stayed for one night, had the ground floor apartment. Very clean and tidy. Was mini kitchen with everything you might need and there is a huge balcony where many flowers (in the evening terrific aroma).

We were dropped off by the taxi at the wrong hotel and when we arrived at the hotel Eleni Palace we had a great reception from staff. Coming away with two grown up sons we were placed in a family room and then the manager toldusweneededa bigger room and up graded us to a huge suite with an open balcony which has amazing views. Staff are amazing cannot do enough for us.

Super nice place 😊

Cozy, simple and welcoming. Breakfasts are modest but delicious, the rooms have air conditioners,some apartments have a kitchen, and a balcony, though you have to pay extra 5 euros per day to use an aircon and 1 euro if you want to use a safe camera. You can also rent a car here, they have one of the best prices in Ammoudara, we rented a very economic Ford Fiesta diesel. The price for the hotel is...

We used the hotel as a base for our night flight. Nice place, friendly staff and we sat around the pool most of the afternoon. The rooms were comfortable and clean. Had a shower then walked into town for a meal before going back to the hotel to get our cases and make our way to the airport. Location was good for access to local coffee shops and restaurants, was also good for transfer to airport which...

I have been coming here for several years and always found the same warm welcome. Not to speak of the super convenient location not far from the airport for overnight stays. The recent refurbishment is a welcome upgrade too. My only regret is that the snack bar has given in to the regrettable requirement for. Pizza and burgers instead of Greek food. But I still enjoyed a delicious salad.

Very good hotel, close to the airport with helpful, friendly staff.

This is a decent 3-star hotel within walking distance of Heraklion Airport. Our room was clean and spacious enough for a family of four for a single night. The hotel's employees were kind and helpful. While the hotel serves breakfast, we opted for the bakery next door, which was great. However, there are a few drawbacks: the noise from aircraft was noticeable even with the windows closed, the air conditioner...

Friendly staff, comfortable rooms, good breakfast in the morning. Location really convenient, close to the airport. A little tricky to get to on foot if you have luggage with you, however. If you have luggage, I'd recommend taking a taxi. Would definitely stay again.

Very very helpful and kind service but the way to walk is quite unpleasant (sidewalks won’t do it well on stroller or heavy luggage). The bedrooms are ok, medium size with a balcony. The breakfast is good !

Exceptional service! The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable. Special thanks to the friendly lady who recommended an amazing restaurant and helped us with a room change, and to the warm-hearted gentleman who checked us in late at night.

We found this hotel by referral from another hotel that was overbooked, how lucky we were! This hotel is conveniently located in the city, close to restaurants, shopping and especial to the Archeological Museum, which is only a very short walk away. The room is very clean and comfortable, the breakfast was delicious. And the service was excellent, especially the receptionist Anastasia, She is the best...

While this a pretty little hotel, I do not think it is a five star hotel. The 24 hr concierge was very helpful with information and requests. She was the best part of the experience. Rooms were pretty but cramped and small. A small shower stood in the corner of the bedroom. Thank goodness the toilet was in a separate room but you practically had to stand on the toilet to close and open the door...

Located in the center of Heraklion this hotel is the epitome of Greek hospitality. We were warmly welcomed by the staff and shown directly into our room. The room was clean, luxurious, spacious. Overall everything we were looking for with breathtaking views of the Port and the beautiful colours of the sunset. Everyone in the hotel made us feel at home and nothing was too much for them. Excellent breakfast...

It was a birthday treat for my wife. Our room was wonderful with everything you could ask for. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was one of the best hotel breakfasts I have ever had. We were only sorry that we couldn't eat it all! The location was ideal for exploring the Old Town.

The hotel was very well taken care of but the staff is what makes it really special! we also had a great dinner. We were delayed flying in but the team so kindly waited for us. First class service!

Excellent design Spacious apartment Great location available parking

A new hotel, fully equipped and clean rooms. We liked the terrace on the roof. The hotel is comfortably located, a kilometer from main sightseeing places, also not far from Knossos, 10 minute ride by car, and like 15 minutes ride to the airport. Very friendly and heplful staff. We are very thankful to Sofia Paravoliasaki for her help in organisation of our trip to Greece. Only good impression from...

This is old hotel, which have been renovated. Good service and location, personal vary friendly. Little bit overpriced for Greece.

GREETINGS FROM OPEN GREECE! I've never stayed at this hotel, but after visiting the website and watching the promotional video, I realized just how brilliant they are—they can confidently afford to advertise like this! In my mind, their approach to guests is just as bold and ingenious! Bravo!!! 5 stars!

Ok but feels "cheap" for a 5* The parking it's a problem. The personnel are great. So does the breakfast.

Our family room was ok, and the view from the pool is good, even if the terrace is very windy and the water is cold. 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.

A few days away in Heraklion found us staying at the Aquila Atlantis Hotel. The Aquila offers you everything you may need whilst staying in Heraklion and worthy of its 5* rating. The Aquila Atlantis is a matter of minutes walk from all main parts of the Town. This being the Marina or, the busy central retail area. The hotel itself is situated in a relatively quiet area making it a nice escape from...

Two Blocks from Everything, Great Staff, Fine Food The Aquila Atlantis Hotel is two blocks from everything. It’s two blocks to the ocean, the Rocca del Mare fortress, and seafood restaurants along the water. It’s two blocks to the astonishing Heraklion Archaeological Museum (Minoan culture from 7000 B.C.), Museum of Ancient Greek Technology, and other museums. Two blocks the other way is the city...

My wife and I traveled around Crete for two weeks and this was our favorite hotel of the entire trip. It’s cozy, historic and luxurious. Their breakfast was also possibly the best hotel breakfast we’ve had anywhere.

Room was large and clean, with a beautiful view of the port. The hotel is well-maintained and has an interesting history. Staff was very helpful in learning about local attractions and how to get there.

Our stay at the Megaron Hotel in Heraklion was absolutely exceptional! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a genuine eagerness to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The location is perfect, offering stunning views of the harbor and easy access to the city’s attractions. The rooms were spacious, beautifully decorated, and impeccably clean, providing a perfect...

The rooms with a view to the port are OK but services don’t match the price. Overall impression loses out to details.The housekeeping lady invaded the room at 09.00. Only two servings of coffee capsules the first day (really now…), no facilities to dry bathing suites. The good side, they serve one of the best breakfasts around Greece and the waiters are extremely polite.

The Megaron was absolutely wonderful. From the spaces where you can sit and relax (the "living room" or the sundeck) to our room, everything was clean and beautiful. The staff was always welcoming and helpful. Jasmine and Mary at reception were unbelievably friendly, answered all of our questions and helped us to get reservations for restaurants we were interested in. Our room was beautiful with two...

Wonderful place - amazing staff!! Across the road from the ferry terminal - easy access to the port. Special shout out to Effie - her customer service was amazing! She printed some things for us we needed for the next day, and upgraded us as well! Thank you!

Excellent stay, excellent environment and fantastic staff. The only lack - a single diet and little greek meal made of meat. I salute: Little Anna, Great Anna and Nektarios - Beach Bar.

We've stayed in Dessole Dolpin Bay resort for our family vacation and LOVED IT! Food is absolutely delicious, so many options even picky eaters will find something. Employees are so nice and welcoming. You feel like home, like part of dessole family. :) All the staff were just great!! The only thing we didn't enjoy was the mattress in our room. Awfully hard and uncomfortable. But we got used to it...

Nice beach, good food and very helpful staff.

The hotel and beach were very beautiful nad well-kept. Staff was helpful and kind, always smiling. Entertainment was well-organized by likeable animators (especially water gym). Delicious, varied food. I highly recommend!

It is very good place.

Very kind personnel, clean rooms (daily room service). Pools and animation team were perfect. Big waves most of the time. Really good food.

Agapi beach resort was a dream! The staff are all incredible and friendly. Very informative and accommodating. Me and my family all had a spa day as well and Erika and the team were all amazing! Our first time in Greece and it definitely won’t be our last

This was my first experience of an all inclusive beach resort (I'm more a city break kind of person) and I think the bar has been set high for future ventures - I'm sold! This resort was amazing on every level. Beautiful beaches, plenty of space for everyone, really good and varied food/drink choices, and lots of activity options available. The staff were all friendly and attentive and the whole resort...

Agapi Beach Resort in Crete offers an exceptional vacation experience that blends luxury with the warmth of Cretan hospitality. Nestled along a beautiful stretch of coastline, the resort provides stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea, making it the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. The accommodations are spacious, well-appointed, and immaculately maintained, catering to every comfort and...

Could not be more positive about Agapi Beach Resort. Firstly all the staff are so warm and welcoming, nothing is too much trouble. They work exceptionally hard and are a credit to the hotel. The hotel itself is a great property. Very clean, lovely pools and plenty of food and drink options available. The food inparticular is a very high standard. It's a great location with Heraklion around the corner...

Really beautiful hotel! The location is very good. This hotel is very big and has several swimming pools + the private beach that is wonderful!! We went there for a company trip, everybody was happy. The breakfast was very good and the rooms were really pretty and clean. The only downside is that the meeting room was not really ready: water, air conditioning, plugs for our computers but otherwise I...

What a lovely place to stay. The check-in was smooth. Even though we arrived after dinner hours, they still wanted us to go and help our selves to whatever was left. The room was great. It had recently been updated. The bed area was separated by a step up. This got a bit of getting used to. The only problem was the soap and shower fixtures. A double-sided tape was used. This weakened after having our...

The hotel was super clean and the beds were very comfortable. Staff was exceptionally professional , friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious - a wonderful assortment of hot and cold items. Location is great- close to many things but quiet. Will definitely stay here again if I get a chance to return to Herakleon!

Lovely hotel - very comfy and quiet, located in a great and walkable part of town. Actually exceptional breakfast with traditional Cretan foods

Olive Green Hotel provided a good experience overall. The location is excellent, and the room was spacious and clean. However, the check-in process took longer than expected, and the breakfast was below average. Despite these minor issues, I would still recommend this hotel for its comfort and convenience.

I booked the family suite and had it all to myself and it was the perfect size. The hotel is right next to many stores and restaurants and not too far from the harbor if you’re looking to take a ferry. The staff are very warm and friendly and they helped me order a taxi which came super fast. The breakfast was also nice. I highly recommend this hotel!

Great hotel with very welcoming staff who provided us with great advice on what there is to do around the area. Would defo recommend!

One of the best parts about Olive Green hotel is the breakfast! Everything was homemade and fresh that day. Such a wide variety of food: from eggs, meats, feta, every possible preserve you can think of, Greek yogurt, hazelnut chocolate spread, tahini. Freshly baked pastries and spanakopitas/tyropitas. Fresh peach juice and coffee, and so much more! Every night we went to bed excited for breakfast the...

Well guess we "won" the lottery with the room/bungalow. Which felt archaic 😅 - the location was nice however - directly on the beach + you can play tennis. Minigolf course is a nightmare however 😐😆needs immediate resuscitation although at this point I am afraid only necromancy would be helpful 💀. The whole resort is closed off however with guarded entrance and parking, that's a plus point. The dinner...

Hotel on a good place close to the airport (25 min), with busy street with shops, bars and restaurants outside the hotel. Bungalows ale llaced in nice garden, close to sea. Hotel has own beach with enough seats, the same with the swimming pool. Rooms are clean and well equiped. The shower is not very comfortable, mostly with the sheet, small or no window, so it is very hot there. The meal was good...

Stayed at Creta Beach for a week at the beginning of August (Family of 4, two adults and two under 5). Short 20-30 minute transfer from the airport. Arrived late at night and they provided a bag with food for all of us which was great after a day travelling. The rooms were very good size, clean and great facilities. Location of hotel good. Few shops over the road and short bus ride into the city either...

I was there in June. It's a great place for your vacation. It has beautiful green territory, tasty food, nice views, big enough private beach. Also, staying in a bungalow is a nice option. But most important - in this hotel they really know how to bring you the best service, the hotel staff is amazing and beyond expectations. Also, it's pretty quiet for a relaxing type of vacation. Only one minus ...

My wife and I stayed at this hotel for a few nights to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, due to the stunning beachfront location and generally warm staff, and would definitely recommend to others. Recommendations to be even better: 1) Improve the check-in/reception experience. We arrived very early in the morning and the receptionist did not looked pleased...

Really clean and fantastic bungalow hotel with a typical Greek food restaurant, 25m line pool and own beach area. The barkeeper was a entertainment master with a lot of jokes and humor. Definitely worth alone for the experience and drinks.
