Top Palace of Knossos Hotel Reviews

Infinity City Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was super helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very good with lots of variety. Close to the airport but excellent sound proofing."

Ibis Styles Heraklion Central

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was very well located and staff was very nice and helpful. The bar on the 6th floor terrace was nice and gave a nice view of the town."

Villa with Private Pool, Jacuzzi & BBQ for up to 8 guests

10/10 Excellent

"This villa is amazing! And larger than it looks in the photos. The views are incredible, the villa is huge and the pool is fantastic! We stayed ten days there and loved it. Communication with Maria was brilliant - she answered every query promptly and was so helpful. There is absolutely everything you could possibly need, from bin bags to washing detergent! Wifi was good inside and outside, and there is air conditioning throughout the villa.The villa was immaculate, clean and spacious. The beds were very comfortable and the bedding pristine, all bedrooms fitted with shutters and/or blinds. Plenty of good quality towels were provided for inside and out. Sitting out on the two balconies to watch the beautiful sunsets or relaxing by the pool on one of the many loungers was such a treat. Do note that the pool is deep everywhere (apart from the jacuzzi area), which made for great diving for our two sons. And you really need a car. But all in all, I cannot recommend this villa and its owners highly enough."
