I stayed here with my husband for our honeymoon. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel itself was beautiful and clean. It was also within walking distance of the city center where there were tons of restaurants as well as the port of Heraklion which was a meeting point for different excursions. It was a fantastic stay and I highly recommend.

The spa was excellent. Loved using the pool and jacuzzi (no extra charge). The breakfast was also excellent and included a wonderful fresh made buffet spread and made to order food. The room was nice and the staff pleasant. The rooftop bar had nice views. Parking was the only tricky thing - very limited & first come first serve.

The stay was very nice. A beautiful modern space with a pool and bar. It is a gorgeous hotel inside. Breakfast was very good and nice to have raki in room. The worst part was parking...no signage when we arrived then having to leave your keys at front desk so they can move your car if needed (double spots blocking other row of cars). Really bad parking. Area was practical for walking into town. Overall good, but parking and tight streets an issue.

The property is cool/unique but located in a rough area. It is a short walk to the center of town. The hotel breakfast provided a lot of options but wasn’t very good quality, pancakes were rock hard, omelette included ingredients that was not listed etc. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. The weather wasn’t great for our stay, so we weren’t able to use the pool much, the top floor bar was closed all Saturday.

Great location near the core of the old city. Easy walk to the shops and restaurants. Parking while limited was super convenient and close. Clean and modern room. The only observation with the room was there was limited space to lay our suitcases for easy access but in reality, not a big issue.

What a beautiful hotel just minutes from the port and the central area. We easily walked over from the ferry, and it was simple to launch explorations of the city and its surrounding areas from this location. The staff are very attentive, and the drinks at the bar after a day of touring are well prepared. We also enjoyed a treatment at the spa, which was a perfect conclusion to our 15-day tour of Greece. Recommend if you are coming to Heraklion!
