The shower was almost cold. The breakfast was great, the staff, particularly sylvia were friendly and helpful. Sylvia gave us excellent advice as to what was possible to do and the actual driving time it would take to get places. She was also very kind in helping us learn Greek, she's an excellent teacher. We had a wonderful time and want to come back

Close enough to the port and the city life of downtown, but far enough to rest in the night. Breakfast is good and the personnel very kind. Bed was very big and very comfy.

The superb staff were incredibly friendly and super helpful, provided great recommendations for restaurants and excellent insights about archaeological and museum visits, and what to do around town. Had a fantastic view of sea and Koule Fortress from our balcony, and the room was clean and exactly what we needed for our stay. Easy location for taxi to drop us off and pick us up, and close walking distance to museums and city attractions. Would absolutely stay there again whenever visiting Heraklion.

The staff were wonderful, and helped us make a tee time when we couldn’t figure out the phone. Breakfast was plentiful with something for every taste. The free parking consists of three spaces but we were always able to squeeze in. I felt very safe staying there. We bought hop on - off bus tickets rather than drive to Knossos and are glad we did. We stayed 4 nights, but 3 would have been enough for us.

Wonderful stay

Very welcoming, friendly and informative staff who were always willing to help. Even helped us to bring our luggage out of your car and bring it up the elevator to our room as we had several. Offered complimentary coffee and a water refill station. Room was a good size for 3 people. Central location to the port, shops and restaurants. Would highly recommend this hotel.
