8/10 Very good

Nice modern place in central location with modern bathrooms. Windows provide poor isolation though, especially Saturday night was noisy with yelling party people passing by. Laundry delivery wakes you up Monday at 06:30. Kitchen only had three plates although apartment can accomdate four people. In March proper beddings instead of thin sheets would be nice.

Easy check-in process. Concierge staff are kind and helpful. Location is close walking proximity to bus stops, attractions, bars and restaurants. Surrounding area appears understandably concerning although did not feel unsafe during different points in the day.

My family stayed here in a two bedroom two bath for two nights and couldn’t have been happier. The place was updated, immaculate, spacious, and in an ideal location - in very close proximity to tons of shopping and restaurants. Well stocked with bottled water and coffee. Parking in the area is challenging. We paid 12 euros to park in a nearby lot for 24 hours our first night, second night we got lucky and found street parking. Would definitely stay here again.

The best of 10 hotels and apts we have stayed in Greece so far. The personnel/service is super helpful and anticipates to what we needed. Modern, clean, quiet. Provided a map of the city, helps with calling taxis, etc. Best location, walkable. Must stay here at Heraklion!!!

Space is amazing- location of hotel is very convenient. Walking distance to center. Lots of restaurants, coffee shops, gelato and pastry shops. Rooms were very clean, bathroom has an amazing shower. Kitchenette is fully stocked if anyone wants to cook. Best part of this stay is the amazing employees, especially Manos. He went above and beyond to help us. We wholeheartedly recommend this hotel.

The check-in process was super easy. We were warmly welcomed by the man at Reception upon entering the door. Appreciated their help to offer assistance with our transport to the airport. Keyless entry was kind’a nice to have. The room we had was bright, clean and had a nice urban theme/furniture. Loved that the location was steps away from the Plaza and great restaurants closeby. Also conveniently located as it’s close to the port, fort and museums. Would highly recommend the Lion.
