This location had a great pool not large with a depth of 1.5 meters but just right for cooling off. Staff friendly across all areas.
Joan Shirley, 7-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Staff were all so friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was delicious with so much choice. The hotel was very clean & the rooms were a little small, but had everything and were also very clean.The pool area was small, but lovely and suited us perfectly. The hotel is located about a 10-15min walk from the city centre and the sites were all accessible by walking, taxi or bus which was perfect for us. We will definitely be back.
Nathalie, 4-night trip

A very nice hotel next to town centre. Thhe rooms are clean and well looked after. The staff are absolutely amazing and would try and help with any query you have! Food is delicious (we had dinners in a la carte restaurant a few times and all were a hit). Would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Iraklio - for tourism or business.
Tatiana, 8-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I enjoyed my room upgrade very much. The room was very comfortable and provided a good night’s sleep. Breakfast buffet was superb, as always. But the staff is what sets this place above other hotels. Very attentive and professional. This is still my favorite hotel in Heraklion.
