Asterion Hotel

What guests think

Asterion Hotel is widely chosen for short stopovers near Heraklion Airport, with many guests praising exceptionally friendly front-desk service, generally clean spaces, and a decent included breakfast, as well as good value for short stays.

Recurring downsides include significant aircraft and road noise and limited soundproofing, making longer stays or light sleepers less comfortable. Rooms are basic and sometimes small, with occasional issues like hard beds or limited outlets, though some guests found them comfortable for an overnight. Best for travelers who prioritize convenience over amenities.

Propre, mais manque de confort. Toilettes encastrées comme ça a été pu entre la douche et le lavabo, pas simple... Manque une bouilloire. Quartier bruyant. Mais idéal pour accès rapide à l'aéroport

En arrivant à l’aéroport d’Heraklion je me suis dirigée vers l’hôtel à 22h30, il est à proximité de l’aéroport. Très bien accueillis à la réception. J’ai demandé pour des déjeuners le lendemain matin et là surprise la personne m’a dit que c’était compris dans le prix. La chambre est spacieuse, avec Clim, il y a un séchoir à cheveux.Le petit déjeuner est très copieux. J’y reviendrai à la prochaine occasion et je recommande vivement.

very noisy caused by low flying airplanes and a highly frequented road in front of the hotel, there was an advice at the door to the balcony to keep it closed at all times and to use the airconditioning

arrived after midnight from the airport which is just up the road. Easy check in and after using the lift to take the luggage to the room, we had an ouzo out front of the hotel. Staff provided free of charge a plate of cold meats and cheeses. Not bad at 1am. room was ok for the night but wouldn't want a week there. Comfortable but a little cramped in the room and the ensuite shower/toilet. Breakfast included ( mostly Continental) . we went down late and the hot offer was now somewhat cool. Enough to get the day started. We have used this hotel several times each occasion we fly to Crete because of its nearness to the airport, a reasonable price for 2 people, breakfast included, good service and a faairly good bed for the night. So, yes , i recommend it.

La proximités avec l'aéroport est pratique pour faire étape lors de son voyage mais beaucoup trop bruyant pour un séjours long car les avions décollent en permanence au dessus de l'hôtel. Concernant l'hébergement, le ménage est complètement à revoir. En revanche, on y est très bien accueilli et les petits déjeuner sont correct.

Wir wollten ein günstiges Hotel nahe dem Flughafen und Knossos und genau das war es. Super freundliches Personal, alles blitzsauber; die alten Möbel waren uns egal; TV und Klimaanlage dafür tiptop und das Frühstück war ok. Ab und zu braust ein Flugzeug in niedriger Höhe vorbei, aber auch das ist in der 2-Minuten-Nähe vom Flughafen normal. Deshalb von uns beiden ein ganz klares 👍👍👍👍👍

A special shout out to Stelios, who prepared an awesome continental breakfast for us since we had to leave so early (0430). We scrambled to make our flight so having some good food in us was greatly appreciated. THANKS STELIOS!!!! We look forward to our next trip to Crete and chance to stay at the Asterion.
