FAQs about hotels in Heraklio Town

The Cradle of Minoan Civilisation

Nowadays known as the capital of the Greek island of Crete, Heraklion was once the centre of the Minoan civilisation and the port of the ancient Knossos. This stunning gem features rich history, outdoor markets and important archaeological sites.

Just 6 km from the lively Heraklion is the world-renown ruins of the Knossos palace, where according to the Greek mythology Daedalus built a labyrinth to hold the Minotaur.

Home to the 16th-century church of Agia Ekaterini, the cathedral of St. Minas, Venetian Loggia and the Archaeological Museum, this destination is much more than just a cosmopolitan city with vibrant nightlife. Do not forget to wander around the old port or visit the Venetian Walls.

Beach lovers can discover some of the most popular places of Crete like the tourist resorts of Malia and Hersonissos, the golden beach of Amoudara and the fishing village of Agia Pelagia.

The international airport of Heraklion, Nikos Kazantzakis, is the largest one in the island and the second busiest in Greece. Situated about 4 km from the city centre, it offers seasonal flights to Vienna, Barcelona, Zurich and St. Petersburg. Booking.com offers a great variety of hotels in Heraklion.

    Heraklion has a lot of car and bike traffic.

    Heraklion has a lot of car and bike traffic. It is like peak hour in Sydney constantly. Parking is horrendous. I would recommend staying out of Heraklion. Drive to Knossos Palace, but go early. The other attraction for us was the Archaeological Museum. Get a uber or taxi to that. The foreshore looks like they gave up on it years ago. After Chania, Heraklion was a disappointment.

    Of the 3 major cities, Heraklion has the most interesting sites and museums - especially the Kotsanas Museum of Ancient Science . Rethymnon was the most relaxing and romantic. Chania was far too touristy, but the Natural History Museum is excellent with exhibits well-titled in English

    Heraklio is perfect for those who want to go sightseeing rather than only beach. It is a bustling city with an excellent museum and good transport links. The bus timetables aren't the easiest to understand and if you want to really explore Crete you may wish to consider renting a car.

    The position is a perfect compromise for visiting the Cnosso palace ( 7 minutes by car) and Agia pelagia beach ( just 30 minutes for an amazing water in a close by town). The room is clean and traditional. The true gem of the hotel is the hospitality. Katerina ( the receptionist) has been an impeccable and outstanding host, she gave us a lot of useful and practice tips to plan our trip(where to go on the beach, where to buy essential stuff, where to eat tipical Creta food). We felt very welcome and spoiled. Highly recommended.

    The hotel was located very near to the centre of town. Staff were friendly and helpful and the self parking was great. An excellent breakfast with fresh juice, good coffee and the best range of fresh baked cakes and tarts. The only problem with Heraklion is the aircraft that need to depart over the town from the airport, we didn't notice this when inside the hotel but certainly noticed it when outside. Still a great town to visit and an good hotel to stay. Easy drive to Knossos.

    Nice, clean hotel and great value for money! The staff were so friendly and the location was great near the waterfront, a parking builiding nearby that costs 8 euro for 24 hours and it is a short stroll to the old centre. It had a mini fridge, comfy beds, nice bathroom with plenty of towels. It exceeded my expectations for a basic 4-bed room. I would definitely recommend!

    Great location, near airport, which was important to us since we had late flight and needed to spend that night in Heraclion. Reception is working 24 houras, which was also important, since we arrived to the hotel at around 2 AM local time. Room was clean and the bed was comfortable, so overrall I would recommend this place!

    This is such a nicely decorated little hotel and we totally enjoyed our one-night stay there. Not quite in the city centre, but close to the sea and there is a big shopping centre nearby. It was very relaxing to stay on the terrace and enjoy the garden and the cats. Staff were also very kind and helpful.
