Staff are so helpful. Rooms are immaculate. Nothing is too much trouble. Herbs Garden restaurant has the best staff and food is excellent. Portions are generous and the half board option has a good selection across the 3 courses offered.
Breakfast offers a great choice and is served from 7 till 10.30 which suits what you are doing.

I had a large sum of cash stolen out of my room. Cash was hidden deep in one of my suit cases in $100 bills. Perpatrator mush have seen the cash earlier in the day and later, at night was able to access my room again and replaced the stack of $100 bills with $1 bill. Hotel said they did not see anyone access my room via the door, however they did. At night, via balcony or any other means my room was accessed and the thief had the time to find the cash envelope again and replace the cash. Major breach in security as the rooms obviously are accessible to any one at any given time. Reconsider staying at this hotel for your safety.

Nice boutique hotel, well located within walking distance from all amusement spots. Excellent view from the roof garden on the port and old fortress. An asset to the hotel was the friendly personnel, especially Maria at the reception. She showed professionally friendly attitude, very good smile and was ready to help with all questions. Certainly an asset to the team. Thank you for all

Great location for exploring the City Center. Lato Boutique Hotel is a short 12 minute walk from the Port of Heraklion, and only a few minutes from the City Center. A convenient bus, only a five minute walk away, will take you all the way to Knossos Palace in about 30 minutes.
The hotel itself has nice views of the harbor depending on your room. The rooms are comfortable, but a bit older. There is noticeable airport noise from the planes taking off, and nearby clubs can be heard late into the night. In add, the bathroom is quite cramped, and the shower is hard to control. The entire space usually got wet due to errant spray.
In summary, this is a great place to stay if you care about exploring the City by foot.

Directly by the port, but not a great part of town. Not a lot of comfort in this hotel. Booked the hotel after good reviews and good photos but honestly it’s more of
2 star hotel, really rundown, tiny rooms, balconies are dirty. The corridors are ridiculously old and breakfast is really mediocre/not good. The bathrooms are tiny and old. There is a small rooftop restaurant, which is OK, server was suuuper friendly, but food is average. For one night ok if you have a cruise to catch and are on a budget. We would have preferred booking something more expensive but with a better experience.
We spent a day at Teatro Enorme
Beach Club to escape which was amazing.

Pros
- bathroom was small, but shower was large and excellent water pressure
- front staff was personable and helpful with dining suggestions
- easy walk to main attractions
- air conditioner worked well
Cons
- bed creaked when getting on/off, but didn't affect our sleep
- elevator is a bit old fashioned, where you open the door to enter.
Overall, benefits far outweighed the minor cons. Would stay there again without question and highly recommend.

This is a 2-star hotel with a below average breakfast buffet and a 3-star rooftop restaurant. It’s in a dirty, rundown part of the city. We witnessed hit and run driving and smashed cars twice just outside the main door. Mangy dogs, cats, and humans lying on the sidewalk a few steps from the entrance did not enhance the atmosphere. The ever-changing desk staff was surly and consistently unhelpful. The room was small and not as pictured on their website. The bathroom design was just weird, outdated, and had no ventilation. The cost is low, but not low enough for what you get. Better to spend a bit more and enjoy your stay somewhere else.
Reply to respinse from business: Unfortunately, the hotel you describe does not match the hotel we experienced at Lato.

Our room (310) had a terrific balcony (that you could play football on) with an even greater view of the fishing harbor and ocean. However the heat pump/AC unit was on the blink and the room (especially bathroom) had a bit of a musty smell. It’s a bit strange that the doors of this hotel’s rooms do not have peepholes for security, as most hotels have today. Also, the shower did not have a bracket for the attaching the handheld shower to the wall. I’ve stayed here multiple times over the years and — for the first time — got the feeling that general maintenance has suffered a bit as of late. As always, parking is also bit dicey although there is a parking garage (Central Parking) closeby that gives a discount with a validated parking stub.

I stayed at the annex and had no issues. I visited in the off season so prices were super cheap.
The annex has no front desk so checking in is across the street at the main hotel lobby and so is breakfast.
For parking, Lato has a deal with the Heraklion port so you can park at the port parking lot for free which is about a 5 minute walk from the hotel. You show your keycard to get access/entry to the parking lot.
The rooms are very typical European style where there is just enough space for the bed and your luggage. The bathroom is just enough space for toilet and shower. I didn’t mind it at all since I was only there to sleep and shower.
I would recommend a stay! The location is very conveniently located within walking distance to the town square/city center!

We were in Heraklion for two days and loved staying at Lato Boutique Hotel. The location is outstanding--we could walk all around Heraklion. We had a beautiful see view over the sea wall from our junior suite.
The breakfast was truly fantabulous with a large variety of choices and all the food was great. The front desk guided us to the restaurant Peskesi for outstanding Cretan food--locally sourced and sustainably grown and served. The atmosphere at Peskesi was fantastic also.
The rooms were spotless and superbly maintained. As with the Greek people everywhere, the staff were friendly and more than helpful with anything we needed.
We would definitely return and definitely stay here again.
