Very, very kind staff, decent breakfast, clean room, cleaning amenities were provided, close to the airport (20mins by foot - totally doable), nice restaurants around, local vibe. We had a good stay for our late night arrival and early departure days!

Useful hotel for our arrival in Crete. Close to airport - a bus or taxi. There were bars and restaurants near the hotel. They were very helpful telling us how to get a bus to the airport to collect our hire car. Room fine with a balcony and outlook over the back of the hotel - good for sleeping. Good airconditioning and WiFi. Breakfast adequate.

Very close to the airport (15 min by walking) The hotel is OK, and it's open h24. However the breakfast can be improved

6/10 Good

The hotel is very close to the airport, which is very good. The breakfast has good options. Staff were helpful and kind and everything was okay for the checkin. However, the room wasn’t well cleaned. It had some plastic on the bed, the shampoo provided was opened. Lots of noise from cars and flights.

Reasonably priced for one night

Good value for money. We needed a budget stopover having flown in late night. Close to airport, clean, reasonably quiet and an fairly comfy bed for two sleepy travellers.

Great location and good facilities

Very accommodating hosts, small room but good facilities incl air con, balcony, Wi-Fi, breakfast. Walking distance from the airport and on the bus route into the centre. Stayed here previously and will stay here again. Highly recommended.

Very charming and quaint. Amazing staff. So clean. Comfortable beds. We booked here because it was close to the airport, but we didn’t realize just how much airport noise there would be.
Verified review

6/10 Good

It was alright. Maybe more of a $40 a night hotel than the close to $70 that I paid but the staff was nice enough. Really not much of an advantage over some other slightly more expensive hotels or cheaper hostels

Our stay at the Asterion Hotel was short (about 12 hours) but comfortable. The front desk staff were gracious and accommodating to our needs. 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.

Good all rounder

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.

Property is clean but bathroom are old and floor tiles are dark looking like not properly clean . .but in general is good for the Price that you pay for . Only complaint is that description in Expedia said : ..”parking available a rare perk in the area “.. this is not accurate . There is not parking .. the front desk said “you can park anywhere in the street” , yes of course like any where in this world ..! But is very busy area and you will not found any easy spot . We book this hotel for the only reason to be close to the airport in a fly early next day and because we rent a car … and we get busted for the inaccuracy of information Be aware that the place is to noise for the airport aviation all the time .! But to be fair , hotel is not bad . And the area you will find some good restaurants and bars and is not a tourist area .!
