Archontiko Hotel

I liked the location, excellent space, super comfortable bed, super powerful air conditioning. Kind people and always ready to help, family hotel and I will definitely return next vacation with my children.

I don't have any complaints, I liked the place.

Just returned form a lovely short break at ArhodikoRoom was lovely, pool was quiet. Staff could not have been more helpful and we really enjoyed our stay.We’ll be back.

Everything was great. The staff was friendly and it had WiFi on property.

No lights were on at night in the hallway.

This is a family run hotel...all the staff I met were pleasant, friendly & welcoming. The hotel has a lovely pool area, with plenty of chairs / sunbeds & a comfortable dining / lounge area. The bedrooms are 'rustic' in style and include free air-conditioning, free wi-fi, a safe (fee payable), a private bathroom, comfortable bed, kitchen area with sink / fridge / table, wardrobe & a small terrace with outdoor seating & airer.The location is perfect - close to the beach (10-15 mins walk), shops (5-10 mins walk), bars / restaurants (5-10 mins walk) & bus service (5 mins walk).

The Shower - The shower handle has no hook/ holder...the shower curtain is attached by swinging rods, which has the effect of closing off a corner of the shower base as the rods are too short, therefore the curtain then sticks to you...if you try to move the curtain, it soaks the bathroom floor. Cleaning of the room (inc emptying the toilet bin) is only every 4 days.

The guys that run this hotel are absolutely amazing, it's clean , excellent value its beside easy access to shops (5mins) beside beach (10_15mins , easy bus route (10 mins , restaurants close (5mins , this hotel is brilliant ?

The location is quite good

I strongly do not recommend staying in these apartments. Our mistake was to check the reviews on booking, but if you look at the rating via google maps, you will understand everything yourself.During our trip to Crete we visited 4 apartments, and this is the worst place of them all (prices were almost the same). A 20yo renovation awaits you: an air conditioner that is impossible to use because it apparently hasn’t been cleaned for all these years, judging by the wonderful smell it emits; pillows that hurt your neck because they have become crumpled inside due to age (the smell is no better than air conditioning); mold in the bathroom and on the shower curtain, which will certainly touch you.The so-called breakfast deserves special attention, looking at it you will want to cry: 2 types of bread, jam, boiled egg, and perhaps you will get a piece of cheese. Bon appetit!

Hotel is located in a perfect place: away from noise and city rush, yet close to very nice beaches and all services like bars and restaurants or shops.The breakfast was basic, but enough to kick off the day.Very nice pool, well maintained yard plus very helpful staff.We liked the stay - it perfectly met our needs.

The shower is small, and the shower curtain doesn't allow for comfort during the showering.There could be more variety of offerings for breakfast.None of these doesn't spoil the place by any means. We loved the stay.

The staff was very helpful. The room was nice size. Lovely people ❤️

Bathroom. The shower was so small I couldn't bend to clean my legs and feet. There is not enough space to even stand in the shower. ?

Good location, easily reachable to go to the airport next morning. Personnel prepared sandwiches for us because we had to leave early (+). Touristic area (beach, taverns) nearby, unexpectedly. Very nice swimming pool. Spatious room for 4 persons, good bed/matras.

Airco had some difficulties to counter the exceptional heatwave.

Location was excellent, close to beach and great taverna nearby.Breakfast was very good.

Cannot think of anything.

Staff very friendly and helpful (booked a taxi for us, good advice for restaurants).The hotel is comfortable, clean and practical. Small scale, feel good, nice pool, flowers. A friendly and lovely place.The situation is interesting if you go or arrive at the airport (15 minutes drive, connection by bus).

It is located in the surroundings of Heraklion, close to the harbour and the industrial zone. A lot of Resorts and hotels nearby, not really a charismatic location.

The staff were very friendly, attentive and efficient. Great care had been taken to make sure that our arrival at a quite anti-social hour was trouble-free and smoothly achieved. An excellent breakfast was freshly prepared and presented in a very pleasant dining area. The genuine welcome and hospitality we received - and it was only for a brief late-night stopover en route to our destination - easily equalled and indeed surpassed our expectation, and certainly would ensure that we shall be happy to return in the future. Well done to all at the Arhodiko hotel, and many thanks for everything!

It was all fine.

Rooms are cozy and hotel is really nice and clean, I was extremely satisfied, wonderful view on mountains was thank you I'm sure that I will visit this place again

A lovely small family-run hotel, very chilled if you want to avoid the crowds. I found it to be exceptional value for money and incredibly friendly. Hotel manager Manolis went above and beyond with his customer service. The location is slightly beyond the main drag but that was perfect for us. The small hotel pool was a great bonus for us. Highly recommend.

Close to bus service for the city. Tour booking services were plentiful. The dinners were wholesome and healthy. The room was comfortable but very dated.

The dated appliances, furniture and amenities in the room. The front of the hotel is modern but it hides a hotel that needs a major renovation to modernise the rooms. The shower and toilet are almost unworkable for the average size person. There is no permanent screen around the shower which causes the whole shower/toilet room to get wet.

I liked the location and the attention from many members of the family

The manager wasn’t kind. He should join the police force.

small boutique family-run hotel where nothing was a problem

Very friendly and helpful staff, spacious room. Really liked the swimming pool.

Good Location close to beach & bus & shops/restaurants, but quiet. Nice size rooms with great views from balcony, good sized pool, simple but decent breakfast, helpful & friendly staff. Excellent price/value ratio

The hotel is essential but has what it needs

The breakfast has very few options and is little tight, toilet is narrow
