Staying at Galaxy Iraklio Hotel was an absolute delight! The room was spacious, clean, and beautifully appointed with modern amenities—perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Location-wise, it couldn’t be better: just a short walk from the city center and surrounded by great restaurants and local shops. The staff went above and beyond with their friendly, attentive service—always smiling and ready to help. I especially loved the slow-roasted lamb—it was tender, flavorful, and absolutely unforgettable. The island has so much to offer in terms of food, culture, and scenery, and this hotel makes it even easier to enjoy it all.

Ibis Styles Heraklion Central
Staying at Ibis Styles Heraklion Central was an absolute delight! The hotel is perfectly located just a short walk from the port, where scenic views unfold with every step. I loved spending evenings by the water, sipping a drink and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere under the stars. The rooms were clean, modern, and well-appointed, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. It’s rare to find such a great mix of convenience, charm, and value in a city like Heraklion. This place truly stands out—definitely my top choice for future visits, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone exploring Crete.
Capsis Astoria Heraklion
Staying at this hotel in the heart of Heraklion was a fantastic experience—its central location makes it super convenient for exploring the city, whether you're heading to shops or museums. The room layout is unique with the sink placed in the bedroom area, which works well for quick morning routines. However, one thing that stood out was the bathroom setup: the shower and toilet areas aren’t fully separated, so after a shower, water would spread all over the floor. It’s a bit risky and not very practical. I’d highly recommend installing a proper door or glass partition between the shower and toilet zones for better safety and hygiene. Despite this small drawback, the hotel excels in location, cleanliness, and overall value. It’s definitely a great choice if you’re looking for comfort and convenience in the city center.
Olive Green Hotel
Staying at Olive Green Hotel in Heraklion was an absolute delight. Located right in the heart of the city, everything—sights, restaurants, and public transport—was just a short walk away. The room was spacious and recently renovated, with a surprising bonus: a tablet provided for guest use. I spent a few evenings catching up on my favorite shows, which made the stay even more enjoyable. Every staff member was incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from day one. Breakfast was a highlight too—offering variety each morning, so it never got boring. Plus, dining at the on-site restaurant came with a nice discount. The only minor downside was some noise from the street level at night, but it didn’t ruin the overall experience. With such great value, excellent service, and a prime location, this hotel is a top pick for anyone visiting Heraklion.
Lato Annex Boutique Rooms
The location is incredibly easy to find—just follow the slope along the exterior wall of the Archaeological Museum after getting off the bus, and you’ll arrive right at the door. The room was spotless and well-maintained, with a clean, inviting feel. Front desk services and breakfast are located in the main building across the street, while dinner is served on the fourth floor. They offer a choice of three courses, and the meal quality was solid. The dining area has great views of the Venetian Fortress and the harbor—especially beautiful at sunset. One small note: drinks are à la carte and paid for at the time of ordering, but that’s a minor detail. Overall, the experience was excellent, and the value for money is outstanding. I’d definitely stay here again.
Lato Boutique Hotel
Staying at Lato Boutique Hotel was an absolute delight from start to finish. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the port and only five minutes away from the Archaeological Museum, making it incredibly convenient for exploring Iraklion. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of fresh options that kept us energized throughout the day. Rooms were clean, well-maintained, and equipped with all the essentials. What really stood out was the incredible value for money—this hotel offers top-tier quality without the premium price tag. On June 1st, I was greeted by a remarkably courteous front desk staff member who went above and beyond. He patiently answered numerous questions about local attractions and even printed my ferry ticket to Santorini—such thoughtful service made a huge difference in my travel experience. I’m truly grateful for his kindness and professionalism. This hotel has earned a permanent spot on my list of favorite places to stay in Greece.
Artion Boutique by Enorme
The hotel was absolutely perfect! The rooms were stunning and immaculately clean, with a real artistic vibe that made the stay feel special. Being just a short walk from the city center is a huge plus—everything you’d want is within easy reach on foot. The staff were warm and welcoming, always ready to help. The only minor downside is if you’re arriving by car: the narrow streets make parking tricky, and there’s limited space nearby. There is a paid parking garage on the main road leading into the alleyways, but it’s not super close to the hotel. It would’ve been helpful if the hotel had mentioned this detail during booking or check-in. Overall, though, this place offers an exceptional experience—great location, beautiful design, and excellent service. I’d definitely stay here again.
GD Gallery Suites
Staying at GD Gallery Suites in Heraklion was an absolute delight. The location is fantastic—easy access to the city center via public transit, and while the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful inside the property, it’s conveniently close to pharmacies and supermarkets for everyday needs. The rooms are beautifully designed with a modern art flair, making you feel like you’re staying in a boutique gallery. The bed was incredibly comfortable, perfect for a restful night’s sleep. One thing to note: there aren’t many restaurants nearby, but if you’re looking for a calm, stylish retreat with great value, this place is a must-try. Highly recommend for travelers who appreciate quality over quantity.
Legacy Gastro Suites
This hotel is an absolute gem! Located just 200 meters from the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, it’s incredibly convenient—right outside, you can catch a bus to Knossos Palace for only 5 euros round-trip. My room was fantastic: spotless bathroom, a small balcony perfect for morning coffee, and great overall ambiance. The only downside? It’s near the main road, so nighttime traffic noise can be noticeable if you’re a light sleeper. Also, while not directly on the beach, the sea view is a bit of a stretch—still, the location makes up for it. Everything you’d expect in a well-run boutique stay: a kettle, complimentary bottled water, and top-notch breakfast. I literally couldn’t finish all the food—so generous! And the coffee? Hands down the best I’ve had in years—rich, smooth, and perfectly brewed. If I ever return to Heraklion, this will be my first choice again.

Stayed just one night and already can't stop raving about this place! The hotel is incredibly convenient—right next to the ferry port, with plenty of restaurants, pharmacies, and a major bus station all within walking distance. I didn’t need to rely on taxis at all; everything was super accessible. My room was spotless, the bed was comfortable and supportive, and the overall atmosphere felt cozy and well-maintained. It’s perfect for travelers who value location and simplicity without sacrificing comfort. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Heraklion looking for a stress-free base. Great value, great vibes, and an excellent experience in just one night.
Castello City Hotel
If you're dreaming of visiting Crete, this is the place you absolutely must stay at. Yes, it takes a bit of travel from Korea—bus transfers involved—but everything along the way is well-organized, with convenient stopovers, comfortable accommodations, and a great breakfast experience. The whole journey feels seamless and rewarding. Plus, the price is incredibly fair for what you get. I’d definitely come back here on any future trip to Crete—it’s truly a top choice.
