Friendly welcome, good location. We had a slight issue in that the shower head clip (to attach to the pole) was missing, I mentioned it to reception and it was dealt with immediately. Breakfast was basic as I expected for the price.

I was happy with my hotel room. My only complaint was that there was very little parking around the hotel.

We liked this hotel so much, that we booked 2 nights on our return to Heraklion. The staff are so friendly & helpful. It is also very conveniently located in walking distance of the ferry port, bus station & city centre.

Clean room, AC worked well and bed was comfy. Close to the port for catching ferry early and walkable to old town. We didn’t have the breakfast as we left too early, but it was available for 10 euro per person

A lovely welcome. We arrived late but the gentleman in reception was so welcoming. We had a very early start to catch the ferry in the morning. He very kindly arranged for the catering staff to provide coffee, biscuits & cake for us.

It was one of the best hotels even if it is rated at 3stars category. the reason of being satisfied about my staying there is that it had a wonderful view of all over the coast line, it was clean and spacy, the breakfast was appropriate and the dinner was of a great variety on the boufet and well cooked foods as meat, salads, desserts and ordef. the only disadvantage is the charged Internet when u are in the room.

Amazing!! Beautiful, clean, friendly hotel. Front desk staff were all angels, gave great directions. Importantly, there is NO KETTLE in the room. The front desk provided me with hot water at all hours for hot drinks in my room or in the lobby. Wifi was fine. Cheap, good supermarket around the corner. Near McDonald's, bus station, and ferry port!! Quick walk to town, not bad.

The entire hotel smelled like cigarette smoke. The bedding and towels had hairs on them which wasn't from us. The street noise and noise from the rest of the hotel came through the walls very clearly. We were woken up by people in flip flops going down the stairs every morning. The breakfast supplied by the hotel was fairly tasty and had a good variety of foods. The people at the front desk were generally friendly.

The entrance of the hotel looked very nice and the staff was friendly but the room was very basic which was fine as my husband and I were staying only the 1 night to catch a boat early morning. I hardly slept as it was very noisy, I could hear the lift and then water running, it went on for a while way after 1am!! The room could have been more inviting and needed a little updating. It is a shame as it is convenient for transport links.

This hotel is straight down the street from the port so very convenient. I came in at night and didn't want to spend money on a cab, so it was perfect. Old look and feel in the rooms, but it was clean and had A/C, hot water, wifi, and great new sheets and towels. Breakfast is basic, and they ran out of honey for the yogurt, which is pretty crazy for Greece. Pretty quick walk to the city center.

We found this hotel to be great value and conveniently located for both the airport and the centre of town, which is about 10/15 minute walk away. The staff are very friendly and we received a very warm welcome when we arrived in the early hours of the morning. We were able to park right outside the hotel, with no problems. Our room had good air conditioning and a private balcony with partial sea view. The continental breakfast was very good. We would highly recommend.

The Athanikon Hotel is somewhat old and run down, but was perfect for my spouse and me on this particular occasion. The front desk staff was both attentive and responsive to our needs and requests. Room lighting was a bit on the minimal side and the shower is not properly designed to prevent the floor from being constantly flooded whenever it is used. Still, the hotel was close to many tourist attractions as well as to a good bakery and supermarket. We will definitely consider staying here again on future trips to Heraklion.

Staff is great. The large lobby is very nice. The rooms are a bit tired and can really use a facelift. The area is commercial and residential, not pretty, but it was convenient to the sights, and the price was amazing.

The hotel was nothing fancy but it was everything I needed. Close to the conference I was attending, and close to the heart of Heraklion. Downsides: (a) The wifi sucked; during high-use times it was basically non-functional. (b) There was a fair bit of noise from the street, and from other rooms in the morning, making it hard to sleep in. (c) The shower was very small; I'm a small person so I was ok with it, but if I had a wide build, the shower curtain would have stuck to my body. The shower head is high though so it should be fine for tall people. Upsides: (a) Hotel staff were super nice! (b) There's a mini fridge, private bathroom, desk and light. That's pretty much all I need in life. Closet and bench with plenty of space to put my stuff. (c) Lots of lovely natural light from the door to the balcony made it easy to wake up in the morning (d) The balcony was small, but still nice to stand on and look at the town. I could see all the way to the sea. (e) Nice lobby and porch where you can sit and work if you need to.

This hotel is about a 6 minute walk from the bus station and is in easy reach of the town centre, about a 10 minute walk. The sanitary recommendations for Covid are strictly applied, the rooms are cleaned daily. Staff are on duty 24/24 and are all very helpful and friendly. The breakfast is varied and plentiful. Only one bad point, situated on a main street it's quite noisy you need ear plugs at night.
