Anesea City

10/10 Excellent

"The best experience!"

GDM Megaron Historical Monument Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location to be close to “downtown “ area, under 15 minutes from airport. Great place to relax between the trips. Place has own parking, not unlimited, but with good chance ( 90%) to actually park there."

Artion City Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff are exceptionally friendly, Beautiful room and modern room Breakfast is delicious and plenty selections and the lady who look after breakfast area is very efficient. 5 mins walk to the center."

Mirabello Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Good budget hotel. Friendly staff, good location."

Galaxy Hotel Iraklio

8/10 Good

"The staff was excellent. We really like our pool view room (quiet). The included breakfast was good. We had one dinner at the hotel restaurant and it was very good. The internet is poor and the tv channels don’t have many (news outlets only) English options."

The Pal Living in a Concept

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were large, staff was excellent and location was convenient."

Marvel Deluxe Rooms

10/10 Excellent

"Emplacement très propre avec terrasse au toit, petit déjeuner complet et délicieux. Personnel très accueillant et sympathique."

Marble Luxury Suites

8/10 Good

"Very convenient for a night before an early flight. We decided to stay here the night before rather than drive from chania early in the morning. It is very close to the airport which makes it convenient, but that does come with aircraft noise. It is a nice place with great facilities. However, the apartment needs some maintenance and the kitchen seating area was not clean. Nothing that can't easily be resolved and I would stay there again."

Ibis Styles Heraklion Central

8/10 Good

"Overall stay was good. Great location to everything that we needed"
