Top Knossos Archaeological Site Hotel Reviews

Capsis Astoria Heraklion Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel with a beautiful swimming pool on the roof. Located right in the heart of Heraklion. Shops, restaurants around the corner and the museum practically next door. Buffet breakfast was exceptional. Will definitely stay again."

Lato Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Liked everything. All the staff were very friendly and helpful and the view from our balcony was superb."

Galaxy Hotel Iraklio

10/10 Excellent

"All good"

Sofia Hotel

8/10 Good

"The property was nice and clean. The staff was friendly.. The only issue we had was that our air-conditioning unit was not working well. The room was warm and stuffy. Staff told us to open our windows for a breeze..."

GDM Megaron Historical Monument Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel’s stunning design and attentive staff left me thoroughly impressed. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the breakfast was simply delicious."

Asterion Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great place to stay for an early flight. Yes, it is noisy with the planes flying overhead, but I don't think that you can get away from this unless you stay really far away. The food was great, and the location was ideal. I chose not to walk with my suitcases, & the public transit was 1.20 euros with a 5 minute bus ride. The location was in the heart of the city - very busy - (I only say this because we stayed in a very quiet relaxed area of Crete) so this was very busy for us. Please Note: that there is NO PARKING, it's very limited - But the hotel is Ideal if you need to get to the airport. We stayed (one) night, and it provided us with everything that we needed. Would highly recommend."

The Pal Living in a Concept

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient location to walkable areas in the city"

Olive Green Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Half board was well worth it. Good food. Lean rooms and very friendly staff. They even packed us a breakfast since we checked out before breakfast started."

3 Pines Design Living

10/10 Excellent

"This place was amazing! The reception was very helpful during our stay. They sent us a list of nearby cafes/restaurants, popular places, etc. The room was very clean and very safe. There was nearby grocery stores and cafes. Great location, short walk from the centre."
