Beautiful room with private dunk pool to escape the heat- although the rooftop pool and bar are also fantastic with wonderful views of the water. Great location near old city center and sights. Very helpful staff- we were able to check out but also use the facilities all afternoon before heading to late night flight. Fantastic breakfast included with fresh fruit and plenty of options. Highly recommend to anyone in Heraklion area.

This is a gem in the central Heraklion! Hotel itself is amazing with all the latest mod cons. We had a room with a pool in the room - the water was perfectly heated so we could enjoy it despite cool weather. The spa area is lovely and relaxing. It is not only the hotel that made the lasting impression - all the staff were amazing, tentative, helpful. You could say - it is their job, here however they go above and beyond! The hospitality is just amazing. THANK YOU Maria and Theodore for amazing hotel and stay!

The property is cool/unique but located in a rough area. It is a short walk to the center of town. The hotel breakfast provided a lot of options but wasn’t very good quality, pancakes were rock hard, omelette included ingredients that was not listed etc. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. The weather wasn’t great for our stay, so we weren’t able to use the pool much, the top floor bar was closed all Saturday.

Excellent hotel hidden between old buildings and small streets. You drive up to a beautiful hotel with parking! We were always greeted with warm smiles and kindness. We received a free upgrade and a welcome drink with dessert in the room. Everything is brand new, clean, smells great and feels like luxury. They have a wonderful spa with a pool, jacuzzi and sauna. On the rooftop you can enjoy the outdoor pool and a sunset dinner. Breakfast is exceptional and made to order! I have to mention the wonderful manager, Denia! She was always making sure staff was on point. Can't wait to visit again!

What a beautiful hotel just minutes from the port and the central area. We easily walked over from the ferry, and it was simple to launch explorations of the city and its surrounding areas from this location. The staff are very attentive, and the drinks at the bar after a day of touring are well prepared. We also enjoyed a treatment at the spa, which was a perfect conclusion to our 15-day tour of Greece. Recommend if you are coming to Heraklion!

I never write reviews, but I really had to write this one. Because the physical appearance of the hotel was nice and fancy and everything, sure, but it is really the service that makes this a five star hotel. I had a day-long bout of food poisoning (from a nearby restaurant, definitely not the hotel) while I was staying there, and the whole staff went way way above and beyond in taking care of me, especially the head manager. They were also very helpful with regard to all my other needs and questions the rest of the time I was there. This is THE hotel to stay at in Crete if you want five star treatment.
