Top Karteros Hotel Reviews

Karteros Hotel

8/10 Good

"The lobby and breakfast bar area was nice as well as the pool. The rooms need a major overhaul as they have old ceilings walls and decor. The bathrooms were old and had grout and old tile swere dingy and showers were like capsules. The balconies overlooked an old roof area and had some trash outside. This place had potential but the old rooms ruined it for me."

8/10 Good

"Really nice place to go and relax – was a bit caught out by the number of young families there (09.07.26-16.07.26), not really an issue (and we've had a family so know what it is like), but was hoping for a little more quiet, particularly regarding the family above our room!! We'll deffo go back, but 2 or 3 weeks earlier to hopefully avoid the families. Restaurants were excellent, the food was very very good (particularly Mouries) especially when compared to a restaurant in Malia Old Town – and very competitive when you take into account you need a taxi in and out of Malia old town. All restaurant staff were very attentive and liked to chat, so relaxed and very friendly. We had a swim up bungalow, worth the extra for that, you get a really nice private space for relaxing after a hard day on the beach! The beach was clean and kept very tidy (in fact, it wont a Blue Flag award while we were there). The sea was amazingly warm, probably one of the warmest seas I've been in on all my travels. The beach guy and the Beach Shack staff worked really hard and nothing was too much trouble for them – drinks were served very quickly, even at the furthest part of the beach from the bar. Overall, very nice place to go and relax."

Sofia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was a nice hotel and reasonably priced. I stayed here for four days with my 14 year old son. We travelled over from Ireland. It had a 24 hour reception and the staff were very friendly and helpful. There is also 24 hour access to a computer and printer. And it also has a bar. They make food sometimes. I tried twice but they weren't making food when I asked. Though you can get food delivered to the hotel with E Food app. The pool isn't that big, but it's still nice. You can only get into the pool from 10am until 7pm. They seem strict on the 10am part, but we stayed in after 7pm without any problems. My main issue was the breakfast isn't that great in my opinion. It could also do with more fruit. It's quite close to Heraklion airport and you do hear a lot of planes and you can actually see them overhead from the pool. I actually read this before I booked our trip. The planes do get less frequent as the night comes. Tbh, it didn't affect our sleep and I would still stay here again if I ever go back."

GDM Megaron Historical Monument Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very nice 5 star historical building. Fully updated with the latest amenities. Staff was amazing. Super friendly and helpful. Rooms were very spacious with all the amenities you could need. Remote controls for the 2 tv’s need new batteries. Pool area is very nice. 8/10 would highly recommend this place. Thanks for having us !"

Village Heights Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Lovely food, great amenities and the staff couldn’t do enough for you. The vibe is relaxed and it feels like there is a good amount of space so nowhere feels too crowded. We were there just as a couple but there were lots of families and children there but not to the point where it was disruptive if you’re just trying to have a relaxing time. Would definitely go back."

Lato Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel, decent location close to local bus station and harbor. Wifi in our room had a poor connection. Elevators a little small, fridge in our room had a weird smell and safe was already locked (only stayed one night so didn't bother). Breakfast buffet was very good and staff very friendly and helpful. Herb garden restaurant on the 4th floor was excellent, nice view and great food."
