Très pratique pour se rendre à Knossos
Pros:

la localisation proche de Knossos et de l'autoroute est un avantage, même si cela peut être bruyant lors de périodes très fréquentées, ce qui n'était pas le cas quand nous y étions. Le petit-déjeûner est excellent et il y a une piscine. La pièce est très grande avec un salon agréable.

Cons:

Le village proche n'a pas vraiment de restaurant et la cuisine du logement, qui demanderait un petit lifting et d'être aérée, manquait de casseroles.

Hotel für eine Zwischenübernachtung
Pros:

Hervorragend ist das Gebäude und insbesondere die Mitarbeiter! Die zwei Damen beim Frühstück machen einen wunderbaren Job. Herzlichen Dank dafür!

Cons:

Das Hotel hat großes Potential. Dazu bräuchten die Zimmer aber eine Auffrischung! Es ist schon sehr in die Jahre gekommen, insbesondere das Bad müsste moderner gestaltet werden.

Pros:

Sehr zugewandtes, freundliches Personal. Schöne und elegante Ausstattung im Stil der Erbauungszeit. Liebevoll gepflegte Gartenanlage. Herrliche Aussicht auf die Berge.

Cons:

Leider verläuft neben der Anlage eine relativ neue Schnellstraße. Die Lärmbelästigung ist ein Manko.

Highlight nahe Heraklion
Pros:

Tolle Lage mit weitem Blick in die Landschaft.Schöne abwechslungsreiche Gebäude in Südorientierung.
SUPER Service, freundlich und kompetent.
Umfangreiches, gutes Frühstück mit frischem Brot, aber leider kein Espresso.
Zimmer und Bad groß mit ansprechender Möblierung und kleiner Küche.
Großer Swimmingpool, (leider nicht geheizt und für uns im Oktober 25 zu kalt)

Cons:

Die unter der Anlage verlaufende Schnellstrasse ist nichts für empfindliche Ohren und hätte in der Beschreibung erwähnt werden müssen.
Die vielen Stufen in den Gebäuden und zum schwierig zu erreichenden Parkplatz sind herausfordernd für
alte und evtl. gehbehinderte Leute

Confort lumineux bel environnement vue superbe un peu gâché par le bruit de la route
Pros:

Petit déjeuner complet de qualité pour tous les goûts présenté dans un très beau cadre. Accueil très chaleureux de Sofia ainsi qu'à celle qui est à la réception.

Cons:

La position du lit plaqué contre le mur à cause de l'emplacement de la baignoire grande mais fonctionnelle.
Le bruit de la route.

Two night stay
Pros:

The staff were so friendly, welcoming and hospitable. The grounds were lovely and well kept, the room spacious and airy. Wonderful views from the terrace. Great location outside of Heraklion, but well connected with Knossos only 15 minutes away by car.

Cons:

The noise from the road below, whilst not overly busy, it could be heard loudly when vehicles passed. Due to the design of the shower over the bath, water flooded the bathroom when showering.
