We were greeted upon arrival but the staff were very welcoming. We were early so we were taken to the rooftop bar while our room was being prepared. The rooftop bar and swimming pool is very lovely and comfortable. Once our room was ready we were shown how the controls work, the smart room was so convenient. The location is perfect. It is a very brief walk to the city center, the port and quite a few other attractions. The hotel is quiet, modern and comfortable.

Lovely accommodation in the heart of the city. Depending on the suite the shower is part of the main bedroom but this wasn't an issue for us. Rooms are tastefully done and the staff couldn't enough to help. The top floor restaurant overlooking the city is exceptional.

Extremely comfortable and well-equipped hotel in a quiet neighborhood just outside of the city center (10 min walk). Staff were very friendly, helpful and accommodating. We only stayed overnight but we could have happily stayed longer since there are excellent restaurants nearby and good cooking facilities in the room.

FAQs about hotels in Heraklio

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.

    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 town was buzzing and full of life.

    The town was buzzing and full of life. Some excellent restaurants (peskesi a stand out) Beaches were stunning especially when blessed with perfect summer weather. BUT, the traffic is terrible, parking is difficult, road-rules are optional and the lane-ways are very narrow. Visiting Knossos is an absolute must.

    Heraklio was beautiful.

    Heraklio was beautiful. The archeological museum is incredible. The history musuem is likewise. The underpopularized The Museum of Ancient Technology was faciinating.......The city is a fine landing place to Crete and offers much more on its own, however we found the graffiti to be overwhelming. I do not believe the slander of it to reflective of the intellegence of the residents of the city - from my interactions. Moreover the beauty of the archetecture is marred by the slander perpetrated. I can only think that the building owners are overwhelmed by the constant repainting required. Hate speech is not free speech but rather incitement.

    Good Location to shops and all the attractions. Good place to start or end a trip to Crete. You could pick up rental after your stay, or drop rental off before your stay. Near airport. A short taxi ride to hotel. Close to rental for cars. Great buffet breakfast with hot and cold food. Beds very comfortable. Room very clean.
