I wish I had stayed at Creta my whole time in Agios Nikolaos. The hotel was so much better than my previous hotel. The management was so friendly and helpful. I would happily stay here again on my next visit to eastern Crete.

This was a lovely place. The room was incredible, it was so large with a fully equipped kitchen. Everything was spotlessly clean. Our welcome was warm and friendly, and enjoyed sharing stories with the marvellous French-Canadian owner.

Hotel very good. Kitchen well equiped but a little bit of washing up liquid would have been good. Shower very temperamental, hot then cold. Parking was an issue! Overall enjoyed the stay.

Fantastic location, 5 star view, large room with kitchenette, very clean, large balcony, exceptional value. Bernadette and her (family) staff were very engaging and super helpful. Highly recommend. Although only 5 min walk to the start of the action, can be challenging if you have mobility issues, but where in Greece isn't like that. Curtis and Karen (couple in their late fifties)

Friendly, quiet and very clean apartment/hotel

We wanted a one night stay in a quiet location but near the harbour. This apartment hotel was perfect for our needs. We were able to check in early which was a bonus and after we checked out they kindly looked after our luggage for 3 hours. The room had a good fridge and good kitchen amenities. The bathroom also had a bath with toiletries. The air conditioning was very good too. Reception were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again. Excellent value for money.

Phenomenal view, lovely clean room, terrific staff

Absolutely fantastic place. Impeccably clean, cleaned most days. Stunning and unbelievable view from the balcony (the photos for the sea view double room on the top floor are brilliant on the website, in actuality it's even better. The staff couldn't be more helpful. All in all a magnificent experience, the best place we've ever stayed, in a lovely setting, close to all necessary amenities. Practically outside the door there's steps leading down to a row of bars and tavernas overlooking the sea and harbour, with steps down to a tiny pebbly cove that's perfect to swim from, and 4 minutes walk round the corner is a sandy shingle beach with sunbeds and parasols and more good swimming. There's a free city shuttle bus that takes you around the town and to the bus station that picks up by the horn statue near the bars, leaves about 10 past and 20 to each hour. We're already booked to go back next year! Thanks to Bernadette and staff for making it a lovely holiday. Strongly recommend Creta Hotel
Sunrise around half 6 each morning. Worth getting up early for.

Hôtel familial au personnel extrêmement sympathique, et francophone ! Il est tres bien situé a 5 mn a pieds du centre (lac). Très propre, disposant d'un ascenseur. La chambre (201) donne une magnifique vue sur la mer et l'île juste en face, avec une belle terrasse, bien orientée pour en profiter dès l'après-midi. Les équipements sont un peu vieillots mais fonctionnels. La clim meriterait une petite réparation car 2 volets sur les trois sont cassés et il est difficile dorienter le debit d'air. Bref un très bon rapport qualité-prix !

Consigliatissimo!

L'hotel si trova in posizione centrale, ma in una strada poco trafficata e quindi silenziosa. Le stanze, pulitissime, sono ampie e comprendono un balcone con splendida vista mare e una cucina spaziosa e molto fornita. Staff molto cordiale e disponibile. Consigliatissimo!
