Located in Heraklio Town, 400 metres from Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Plānis Str Urban Suites by Semavί provides express check-in and check-out and free WiFi throughout the property. The property is situated 6.4 km from The Palace of Knossos, 17 km from Cretaquarium Thalassocosmos and 200 metres from Municipal Art Gallery. The property is 50 metres from the city centre and 2.4 km from Amoudara Beach. The location was great, easy to find, and very spacious room. The room fit all of our needs. Since there was no personal interaction (ie everything done electronically) there was no issue with that - if we did - we had a number to call in a pinch. No need.

Situated in Rethymno Town, 500 metres from Archaeological Museum of Rethymno, Four Seasons of Bliss at Sohora Hotel features express check-in and check-out and free WiFi throughout the property. The property is set 26 km from Museum of Ancient Eleftherna, 46 km from Psiloritis National Park and 700 metres from Fortezza Castle. The property is 300 metres from the city centre and 1.6 km from Koumbes Beach. We stayed in the Spring room, which had its own private balcony overlooking the courtyard. It was very close (a couple hundred meters) from the Venetian Fortezza and the seafront, which was very convenient and beautiful. The hotel is located in the old town, where no cars drive in the narrow streets - which makes it perfect for wandering around and looking through all the souvenir and clothing shops, super markets and cafe's and restaurants. We will definitely be back, and will definitely book in at Sohora Hotel. The staff were very friendly and went out of their way to accomodate our requests and assist us with arranging transport. Our best stay in Crete!

Located 27 km from Fortress of Frangokastello, Anopoli Rooms offers air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. The guest house features family rooms. We stayed here with my mom for one night, and it completely exceeded our expectations. The village itself is quiet and charming, set in the mountains, and the whole experience—from the hotel to the taverna and the wonderful host—was just perfect. From the start, we felt very welcomed. We were helped with our luggage to the third floor, and it felt like we were given one of the best rooms, with a stunning view of the mountains. The room was spacious, beautifully renovated, with elegant furniture and thoughtful design—it was clear a lot of care went into creating such a comfortable space. Everything was spotless, fresh, and bright, from the bedroom to the bathroom. We also ate at the taverna that belongs to the hotel, and the food was absolutely delicious. The owner is such a kind, helpful person—he gave us great advice on routes and places to visit, and it was truly a pleasure to meet him. We loved everything about our stay and honestly didn’t want to leave.
