Hotel in a historic building in Heraklion. If you're looking for a place with all the modern amenities, this is not it. But it's clean and comfortable if you don't need all the bells and whistles.

We booked this hotel for the close proximity to the ferry and it exceeded our expectations in every way! The staff were wonderful, the food too pool was a perfect relax in the heat, dinner was delicious. We planned on going to town but loved it so much we stayed there the whole time! We only had one night before our 8am ferry. I would highly recommend!

A beautiful, peaceful stay

Megaron Hotel is a truly elegant, classical place, everything felt well cared for. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The rooftop restaurant offers a lovely view, and the small pool there is a perfect spot to relax. The room was clean, the bed very comfortable and breakfest was amazing.
