Galaxy Hotel Iraklio

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed one night and it was perfect!! Staff were helpful and only 15 min walk from the main areas which was great. We didn’t want to stay right in the hustle and bustle where it was loud. Breakfast was also really good. Had everything you wanted. If I go back to Heraklion I’d definitely stay there again. Parking included was a bonus."
