"Staff very helpful."

Aquila Atlantis Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was beautiful and in a great location to the port, old town etc. Also had free parking which was a nice bonus. We spent a lot of time in the pool which was much needed respite from the heat. Only items to improve here was a bit of a disconnect between the day reception staff and the night reception staff re: our request for late checkout. Night staff said yes, then the next day, the day staff said no - so it made us scramble last minute to pack everything up. Otherwise - a great stay and would recommend!"

3 Pines Design Living

10/10 Excellent

"The property was excellent. It was in a great location, with good restaurants and supermarkets around. We could walk to the port area about 1 km away. It was spacious, clean and very well maintained. The staff were friendly and very helpful. We really valued the washing machine and gym. The area was very quiet. The only issue we had was that the pool was heavily chlorinated and caused some skin irritation with my husband. Apart from that, everything was perfect."

Infinity City Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel within walking distance of the port for our short stop over in Heraklion . Staff very helpful and allowed us to have early breakfast before our ferry ."

"Really friendly welcome even though we were late arriving. Rooms are stylish, modern and clean. We only stayed one night as we were moving to a resort the next day but would definitely visit again."
