Kastro Hotel

This a hard review to write.|The hotel is modern. Very central location with very good restaurants nearby and close to a parking. The people are very friendly and the breakfast buffet very good.|But the room although modern must have been conceived by someone who has never stayed in a hotel.|There is no closet to put away your clothes and no room for your toiletries in the bathroom.|The mirror in the bedroom stops at the head (unless you are very very short!)|The bathroom is in front of the bed and separated by a glass door so if you use it at night too bad for your partner!|There is an expresso machine but no capsules!|And it is the first time we were charged for using a room safe!

I stayed at the hotel for what was essentially a 3-day domestic business trip. I have to say I was really pleased by my experience! The room was exactly what I expected based on the description - comfortable, with a desk, a mini-fridge and a rather spacious bathroom, while the cleaning services did a thorough job daily. Although few and brief, my interactions with the staff all went rather smoothly. The best part was, surprisingly, the breakfast! Guests are absolutely spoiled for choice, ranging from classic breakfast ingredents like toast bread, butter & marmelade to local white cheeses (φέτα, ξινομυζήθρα, τυροκαυτερή), raw or boiled vegetables, olive oil and other Cretan products and healthy stuff! As someone who doesn't usually eat breakfast or rave about food, I haven't seen such variety of options at any hotel I have visited in other Greek islands, so I felt compelled to comment on it. I have no negatives to point out, so all in all, I had a lovely stay, and I would definitely recommend the hotel to anyone visiting Heraklion. Ευχαριστώ!

Tucked nearby main shopping and not too far from bus station. This is easily walkable from the port. Staff was extra helpful in guiding us to local restaurant options, bus transit, and general information. Morning buffet breakfast was delicious and plentiful.

One city hotel in the center of Heraklion with nice renovated rooms and and its near the morzinis lions fountain and the shopping center of heraklion.verry clean and well made rooms with nice bathrooms and accommodations as iron,safe, coffee machine ,tv and water heater.some of the rooms have also complimentary breakfast or with an extra charge you can have it as well.it contains cold cuts as ham,turkey, feta cheese and gouda,orange juice,coffee ar tea and other beverages.Omelets and bacon with sausages are also an option and some pies than like cheese or spinach pie,yogurt with fruits ,honey a variety of breads and bread sticks and some other siders also.Also dont forget to take pancakes from the automatic maker is nice.The room prices are almost valued for money(maby it can be cheaper some days in the week ) and the restaurant is clean and spacious for the size of the hotel. Until now i stayed in 2 rooms and im very satisfied. For any more information not be afraid to contact me in personal mesage.

Kastro Hotel is a great value. The rooms are modern and super clean. The staff is helpful and friendly. The included breakfast is substantial and delicious including the freshly made pancakes, a real treat. The central location is close to everything including a very affordable nearby grocery market.

Generally good,nice rooftop/smoking area,in the city centre,the parking lot that the cooperate with was closed when we arrived so we had to park on the street. Other than that everything was nice

Well located hotel at a good value for money. Room was clean and spacious. The breakfast included was nice, although there needed to be more staff to help clean the tables and replace plates/cutlery etc as it was a little chaotic. But on the whole this is a very minor point and would still recommend! The roof of the hotel had a nice sitting area with a view of the sea too!

This hotel is in a great location, beds are comfortable, rooms are modern, even has a coffee pod machine. Fast hot water coming through an over head rain shower head. The safe costs 5 euros for your visit. Excellent lift. Will stay here again.
