“This hotel's central location, right on Kornarou Square, makes it a practical base for exploring Heraklion's main attractions; the hospitable staff and longstanding tradition since 1969 are real assets. While rooms might feel compact for larger families, I think it's a solid choice for short stays, particularly for business or solo travelers who want to be in the heart of the action.”
