beach front hotel; get a beach front room; our city view side was noisy well into the night. Breakfast was AMAZING! Wifi interruptions frequent, free parking around the corner, One night stay going thru was great!. Do have dinner and breakfast ther
Beautiful spot on the boardwalk! Close to everything in the city. Breakfast was included and it was delicious. I would highly recommend and would stay here again.
The hotel is right on the promenade and the beach. We stayed 2 nights. The room is comfortable and clean,no noise and it's very calm. The staff were kind and helpful. The only problem ,there is no lobby,all the space is turned into a restaurant. The breakfast is ok. Parking is on the street if you can find one. We enjoyed our time there.
A very pleasant hotel. We stayed 2 nights. Our room was excellent. Clean and modern. Staff was friendly and helpful. Many restaurants on the seaside, steps from the hotel.
We were greted and made to feel at home. We were upgraded to a suite and it was very spacious and comfortable with amazing views. Breakfast was excellent taken right beside the sea. Lerapetra had everything including quiet beach, wonderful old town ans limitless places to eat fantastic cretian delicacies.
Great hotel in the best location possible, the ocean is your pool. Staff are fantastic, understated, helpful, friendly. Room was a junior sea facing suite, loved it especially the balcony with glass railing. Breakfast had an extensive choice, everything was very tasty.
Hotel is in a good central position, with the rear of the hotel overlooking the sea, as does the restaurant, which was nice at breakfast. Room was basic, but we were only there one night so was adequate for our needs. Good shower. Very nice buffet breakfast with choice of hot and cold food. Staff friendly. Private car park available.
Good communication with hotel for organising parking and a later checkout on our last day. Parking at the hotel was close by. Check in was smooth and all staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Lovely large room with balcony and sea view. Our room was clean and tidy with a large comfy bed, air con, fridge, hairdryer, towels, robes, slippers and toiletries in the bathroom. Breakfast was included in the price and very good. Close to shops, restaurants and beach. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.
+ very clean, confortable rooms with views (junior suite), good breakfast, friendly stuff
- The Restaurant Music never stops from 6:00 am till midnight (First night it never stopped). Although room is comfortable, could not sleep well because of the unexpected sounds.
we were a family of 4 (2 teens). We had breakfast buffet each morning. The hotel is steps away from the beach. The sea view we had was gorgeous . Lots of stores and shops within walking distance. The owner and staff were friendly and helpful. we have stayed here each time we have come to ierapetra and will return
Well excellent place and staff ( special Maria )
Reception. Close the everywhere !!!

Good hotel
Staff friendly, breakfast excellent, facilities fine. However, website implies that all rooms lookout over the bay or seafront. This is untrue as half the rooms look over a grubby back road. This is fine for a short business trip but not for 7 days holiday. No other rooms were available to us.
