Top Heraklion Hotel Reviews

Aquila Atlantis Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice pool, great breakfast, very helpful/friendly staff, cleanliness could’ve been better and beware of parking situation - very limited spots! We spent lots of time looking for a spot at night with 2 babies…"

Lyttos Mare Adults Friendly 12+

10/10 Excellent

"The variety, quality, and selection of food was fantastic. Everything was super clean from our room, to each and every restaurant, and each and every pool, washroom and sunbathing bed! All staff were super helpful, and made sure we were well taken care of from the minute we arrived till the early breakfast that was provided on the day we left! The entertainment was fun! We enjoyed the Chicago show! Thank for a great time!"

Galaxy Hotel Iraklio

8/10 Good

"We booked our stay months in advance of our trip. Yet when we arrived at 11pm at night (my wife, I, 2 children and the Mother In Law we were told the room wasn’t ready(?!) and they would have to put another bed in a different room so we could all fit in. That led to a half hour delay (not welcome at that time of night with young children) and worse still we would have to move rooms the next day…hotel is good for a city centre location, but that really poor start left a bad taste in the mouth…."

Phāea Cretan Malia, a Member of Design Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"The most impressive was quality of food in buffet and the 3 restaurants. It's also perfect for families with kids. Cleaning was good, but missed some spots occasionally. The rooms are descent sized, comfy beds, bathroom was a bit small, but not a problem. What made stay great was that it was such a compact resort, but somehow they have "hidden the rooms" so it doesn't feel crowded. Beach is great, with plenty of chairs, pools the same. Amazing place for kids, as they kept meeting new friends, and parents could relax with a good overview pools and beach areas. Kids club had good opening hours and nice staff. Some staff members were excellent, some average, but they were all helpful with the kids. Food was beyond expectations. Top ingredients cooked very well. Exceptional value for money. What could be improved- Though most food was included, a couple of dishes needed extra payment. No roomservice was included in the Effortless package, but the ice cream shop was. There were 2 Wine lists, Effortless (all inc) + regular. The regular was available everywhere, the full effortless only in restaurants. In Bars only 3 wines, but all drinks included. Wine selection on effortless wine list could be improved, but a couple of good wines so no issues. Did not like shampoo and shower gel at all. Overall, for what we paid, we feel we received great value, our kid met so many new friends it was a great vacation for all. Will definitely be back."
