Rua Augusta

L’hôtel est magnifique, et parfaitement situé au cœur de la ville dans un cadre exceptionnel

The best and worst thing about this property was the location. It was right in the heart of the action on 25th August street and very convenient to everything we wanted to do in Heraklion. We stayed in the Hellas suite, which is on the ground floor right at the front of the building, The suite and building were meticulously maintained and very tastefully decorated and appointed. But it was loud, well into the early hours of the morning and then again near dawn. Lots of street noise, noise from tourists, vehicle noise (even though facing a pedestrian street), church bells. Those are all obviously outside the control of the owner and probably would have been less of a problem if we were staying on an upper floor, farther back from the street, or if we were visiting at a less busy time. But difficult to fall asleep and stay asleep. Also, randomly, turning on a tv in one room or changing channels would turn on tvs in the other areas of the suite, which was like a game of whack-a-mole with our family on different schedules. Still, it was a lovely spot, and we would go back, although probably try to secure a different suite.

This was an excellent choice! Very very nice and in an excellent location with so much in a very short walking distance. We had a teen with us so the separate additional room upstairs was great. The listing and the photos were exactly as described, and staff was prompt to respond and assist with any questions. Highly recommend!

The hotel is right in the middle of Heraklion old town. Everything is walkable. The hotel is very clean. Spotless in fact. Marble everywhere. Our suite is very well equipped, very modern. It was very quiet, despite being in the middle of town. There is no on-site host. Entry is by door-code. Communication with off site hosts is via WhatsApp and was very responsive. There are a few steps up to the font door, and the elevator is very small. So this might not suite disabled people. Would definitely stay here again if we return to Heraklion.

Rua Augusta exceeded our expectations. We were in the England suite. Was the perfect size. Modern. Very, very clean and well laid out. Finishes were high end. Washer/Dryer combo was very convenient and the location was perfect. Will definitely book here again.
