Anemos Inn by Estia

Albergo molto pulito, camera ampia e cambio lenzuola quasi giornaliero. Piscina pulita con servizio bar economico ed impeccabile. A due passi dal mare e dalla strada di negozi e ristoranti con parcheggio dedicato ai clienti. Prima colazione completa molto buona e, su tutto, il sorriso delle persone che ti assistono e ti coccolano. Un luogo che ricorderò per sempre.

We had an amazing stay at this hotel, mainly thanks to Maria. She is a wonderful host who takes care of everything, is incredibly kind, and makes you feel like you’re visiting an old friend. For the price, both the breakfast and the rooms are very good, and everything—including the pool and rooms—is very clean and well maintained. Getting around is also very easy: there’s a public bus to both Heraklion Old Town and the airport for only €2.10 per person. That said, if you want to explore other areas, a car is definitely recommended. We rented one through a company Maria suggested, and it was not only much cheaper but also offered better service than what you’ll find online or at the airport. The car came with full insurance and no extra cost for a second driver. They even delivered it to the hotel and let us return it at the airport—super convenient! The location is excellent, being very close to both WaterCity and the Old Town of Heraklion. Around the hotel, there are many nice restaurants with amazing food and friendly people, making it easy to enjoy local cuisine without going far.

Very friendly hotel staff and cleaners. Very close to bus stops going into Heralkion and into malia. Very good and fresh breakfast too!
