Nice little hotel

My stay at the hotel was very nice. Its close to all the fun and easy walking distance to almost everything. Breakfast (which was included) was the best part. Food was really good and many choices.
King bed = two single beds pushed together. : )

Olive Green Hotel provided a good experience overall. The location is excellent, and the room was spacious and clean. However, the check-in process took longer than expected, and the breakfast was below average. Despite these minor issues, I would still recommend this hotel for its comfort and convenience.

This property is a newer building, conveniently located within walking distance of the main pedestrian street. It is a bit farther from the ocean, but is definitely walkable. The rooms are clean and nice with helpful staff. It is very near an easy bus station to get to Knossos. Very good breakfast.

Very smooth check in experience. Easy walk from the bus stops and ferry terminal. Room was clean. Washbasin was inside a wardrobe kind of setting which was bit inconvenient but overall room was spacious. We got room with balcony which helped to get some fresh air as and when needed. Very centrally located property and professionally managed.

We had a very pleasant stay at the Olive Green hotel. We stayed in it twice, once on the way in to Crete and before he headed back. Olive Green is a well appointed hotel in a very convenient location. It is easily accessible to all the interesting areas in Heraklion - the Archeological museum is a stone's throw away, and the port is about a 10 min walk. Tons of restaurants walkable from the hotel. The breakfast in the hotel was very nice. Its a great spread of Cretan items along with the usual fare. We really enjoyed trying out the different items. We got the executive room in one stay, and it was really nice with a wraparound balcony. The room itself is well appointed - has all the amenities in a compact and neatly setup spaces.

Great location in central Heraklion. Room was large but the shower and sink in our room were located in the middle of the room (not a separate bathroom; the toilet is a WC in a separate room). It means zero privacy for the shower. The staff wasn't warm but everyone was nice enough. There are fantastic restaurants within easy walking distance of the hotel. The port is also walking distance. There's a bus stop the other direction about 5 min away that goes to the airport or to Knossos. The location seriously can't be beat.
