Really great hotel. A little gem right in the middle of town. If you can get a room with a church view, it’s really worth it. The staff are so helpful. They saved us money getting to our next hotel with better cab options. Just be warned if you are taking a cab, it’s a one lane street in front of the hotel so the cab driver is going to want to unload you and get going super fast!

It was clean and the staff were friendly. There’s also a restaurant next door which had delicious food and great staff. However, for the price I paid I expected to at least have a free bottle of water in the room, as well as access to an iron and hair dryer. I think those are basic necessities. Also I turned on the do not disturb button and the cleaning lady still came into the room while I was asleep. I didn’t appreciate that

Modern rooms and easy access to Lions Square

This is our fourth stay at the Metropole. We choose this hotel for its convenient location and cute little square with cafes right next to it. It is a short drive from the airport and there is a car parking lot very close to it (not managed by the hotel). The check-in is quick and efficient, even if you arrive late due to plane delays. The rooms are clean and modern.

The staff at the hotel were very helpful but the service at breakfast in the cafe next door was strange. There was no menu to say what was avaliable & food arrived randomly. eg the bread arrived after everythingl else. Although the food was acceptable & plentiful we were given things we didn"t want but couldn't choose what type of coffee we wanted & were not given any juice. There was lots of waste because there was no choice.

I booked a Deluxe Room with a balcony and city view, but ended up on the lowest floor with a large tree directly in front—completely blocking the view. Definitely disappointing, especially considering the higher price for the “view.” Be careful when booking this room type—what you get might not match the description.

Great spot! So much to see around the area. Parking was a bit tricky, go to the Themes Parking which is roughly 800 feet from the hotel. It’s 15 euros for the whole day but conveniently located. The area around the hotel was amazing! So much to explore. Breakfast in the morning was top notch! Felt very taken care of!

I liked the location in the old town of Heraklion. It is outside the normal tourist areas so you have a nice 20 minute walk to the water. The breakfast is amazing with 2-3 trays of food that is hard to finish as 2 people. If you can, get a package that includes it.
