We only spent one night here and arrived in the evening. The hotel is very nice and had a small restaurant where we had dinner. The pool was lovely and clean and we were able to find parking for our rental car. I would have booked this hotel again on our return to Heraklion, but it was full and we couldn't get a reservation. It's convenient to the port and the airport.

Stayed here for 1 night as it was close to the airport. Rooms weren’t clean and it had a smell to it. Bed was very uncomfortable and the sheets were paper thin. Super old hotel - wouldn’t stay here again but managed because it was only 1 night.

We chose this hotel because of proximity to the airport. It’s clean, staff is great, but the beds are hard and we had some trouble getting the aircon the way we needed it.

Liked: Cleanliness
The Sofia Hotel was just what i expected it to be. It was a hotel near the airport that was very convenient to stay at the night before our flight so that we could be at the airport very early. I don't think I would stay there otherwise but the staff was very nice and it certainly did exactly what we needed it to do.

We rented this hotel for easy access to the Heraklion airport for a morning flight. It is very convenient to the airport and was a very short cab ride away. That is the main attraction here. It is clean enough, and safe enough, and close enough. Nothing else is significant to note. very average hotel.
