We stayed for 1 night arriving on a flight at about 2300 before heading south on holiday the next morning. It is only a 4 minute (but €10) taxi ride from the airport. The room was modern, smart and clean but not luxurious. We had no problems with the beds or bathroom facilities. The staff were friendly and helpful. We... More

We needed a place to crash before an early flight back to Athens, and did a quick search while on our way to Heraklion from Agios Stefanos. Sofia Hotel is clean, has an amazing location literally 5 minutes from the airport, and the staff were very helpful. We needed a bite to eat at 2am after a 3 hour drive,... More

Exceptionally friendly staff, very accommodating. Very modern bathroom with glass door circular shower. Three beds all very clean and crisp. Free internet. Breakfast (included) was plentiful, variety of hot food, multiple cold meats... More

I had to visit Crete for business Trip for 2 days. I stay to "Sofia Hotel" because it was outside of the center of the city, very fast and easy access from the airport of Heraklion (5 minutes by Car) and the most important was that I could park my car without extra charge to the Private Parking area safely....

Living in the south east of Crete for a good part of the year I always spend the night in Sofia prior to an early morning flight. Driving through the Dikti mountains in wintertime at o-dark-hundred to Heraklion isn't the most relaxing start for a trip abroad. Hence the convenience of Sofia Hotel at 1 km distance from the airport.... More

The hotel was great, very clean, my husband was catching an earlier flight than me and they said I could do a late check out. I actually felt bad that they would be waiting and so I took my cases down early. The person at reception said " oh put them in the managers office" wow the hospitality was great.... More

The hotel location was great , cozy and quiet and very clean . A real feel like home . Sofia was great and very accommodating . I highly recommend this... More

This hotel has everything one expects from a 3-star hotel: friendly staff, reasonably-sized rooms, free WiFi (lobby only), poolside taverna for (simple) evening meals, standard (for Crete) breakfast buffet, own (smallish) parking space. The air-conditioning is somewhat weak considering the climate; its stops working as soon as you remove your key card from its holder when leaving the room. If... More
