My wife and I have been to Chania for vacations. We decided to travel to Irakleio and stay for two days and then flying back from there. We asked in Chania where to stay to Irakleio and they suggested this hotel, as they told us it is in the centre of the city, so it is the best place to... More

I have stayed to that hotel a year before for business. This year, I went to Irakleion for a week, last month and I booked to the same hotel, as its location is the best . Also, It has been a renovation to the hotel and the change is really obvious! For sure it is the best value for money!... More

We've booked this hotel only for a night (wanted to travel down the town, visited museums and went to Knossos). So my review on the hotel will be based only on one-night experience :) Hotel has a very good location - in the center, so can be easily found. Not very expensive. Not bad, really... but I can't imagine to... More

This hotel was a risk because of some reviews saying it was bad and old but what i have to say is that it is perfect located, very important if you want to go around and see everything. Yes it is old but cheap, who is so clever can find a new modern one and cheap. Do you think it... More

After spending my holidays in Chania I had to catch an early plane from Heraklion. Therefore, I just needed a place to spend the last night in Heraklion. The hotel is located in a very pleasant and vibrant pedestrian zone, close to everything. It is only a short walk from the KTEL bus station and the taxi to the airport... More

This place is by no means charming. Luckily, my husband and I stayed for only one night. We read about the place in Fodor's and assumed it would be great based on the review. The room is pretty depressing and bare, the bathroom is tiny and there is no shower curtain or stand for the hose. The breakfast room was... More

My partner and I stumbled across the El Greco, it doesn't look like much from the main street but inside is of a high quality. My partner and I visited at the end of May 2010, it was hot enough for me and not as many tourists. The hotel manager George was very helpful, the room was of a high... More

Friendly, helpful staff and the hotel is right in the center of downtown, central to everything and in the middle of the action. Continental breakfast is included. My room was comfortable with small TV and a tiny bathroom. The water was nice and hot though and the towels were changed daily. Note that there is a charge for air conditioning... More

Most of the comments below are spot on. El Greco has a great location. From the outside, it looks like a nice hotel, but inside it’s kind of old and dirty (not dirty as in odors or roaches and stuff, but just dusty and deteriorated). Actually, we randomly stumbled into this hotel late at night. (Context: My wife, two young... More
