Our room was strange : not so big with a tiny shower room (which could have been cleaner) but a very large terrace. The bed was a disaster (the kind where you spend the night trying to stay on it). The hotel is very well located, quiet, and the service excellent. Very good breakfast.

The staff was really helpful. We had confirmed a reservation for a new year's special dinner but due to some confusion our reservation had been cancelled. The personnel managed to find us a nice table and we ended up at a quiet end of the restaurant, the two of us sitting alone at a table set up for six. We appreciated this gesture. All over our stay, we found the personnel to be very efficient. At Lato, it is service with a smile. We would definitely return should we go back to Creta and recommend this hotel with a view on the harbour and the fortress.

We had a nice stay. Staff at reception desk was very helpful. The breakfast buffet was good and fresh. Finding the way to get into the hotel's street was very complicated.

We were anticipating wonderful rooms with great views. The views were indeed wonderful, but the rooms needed some major housekeeping and revitilization. I had to ask to have the filter changed on the air conditioning unit because the mold odor was overpowering. The lower mattress had stains visible and the carpet was charcoal so we could not determine when or if it had been cleaned. This hotel has a great location and an outstanding restaurant, but without upkeep, the price of the rooms is not worth it.

This hotel is a very good value. It is well located, with great views of the harbor, and well run. The only negatives are pretty tight parking space (true for all Heraklion hotels, I think), and a somewhat unfriendly restaurant.
