Breakfast Views Worth Waking For
After a long day exploring, we loved retreating to our room with an incredible harbor view. The breakfast was a feast—so many Cretan pastries to choose from!
While the experience was fantastic, the Wi-Fi was frustratingly intermittent, making it hard to plan our next adventures. A more stable connection would have been appreciated.

The hotel features a stunning rooftop restaurant with incredible views and an epic breakfast buffet.
The neighborhood was quite noisy at night, making it hard to get a good night's sleep.

Had a fantastic stay with friends! The views from the rooftop pool were stunning, and the breakfast spread had a variety of homemade options. We explored the nearby port and Old Town, both just a short walk away. The friendly staff, especially the breakfast team, made each morning enjoyable.
The gym lacked air conditioning and there was no water provided, so it's good to bring your own bottle if you plan to work out.

After a long day, I loved unwinding by the rooftop pool and indulging in the relaxing Turkish bath. The breakfast was a highlight, with delicious cakes and made-to-order omelets. The only hiccup was the air conditioning in the room, which was a bit too direct for comfort, but it didn't ruin the overall experience! 😊

The rooftop area offers stunning views of the harbor that are hard to beat, especially during breakfast. The breakfast spread is quite impressive, featuring a range of delicious pastries and hearty options that set a delightful tone for the day.
The hotel’s common areas and rooms seem to have a dated vibe, lacking the modern updates you'd expect from higher-end accommodations. Noise can be a bit of a hassle, especially from the bustling streets nearby, affecting the overall tranquility of the stay. Parking is limited and navigating the spaces can turn into a bit of a challenge. the furnishings in the room could use more personality and comfort, as some pieces felt more like functional than inviting.

The Megaron Hotel in Heraklion was an absolute delight. Walking in, refreshing water and a baked treat greeted me, setting a warm tone. The front desk efficiently checked me in, and the staff made me feel genuinely welcome throughout my stay. The room felt clean and well-appointed, with stunning views of the Venetian Harbor outside my window. The complimentary breakfast stood out. I indulged in fresh omelets, crispy bacon, and a variety of delicious pastries that rival some brunches. Though the breakfast café was bustling, the staff kept everything running smoothly. The hotel's location was perfect for exploring the town, and I loved spending time by the rooftop pool. One downside was the air conditioning, which felt a bit too direct for comfort at times. Otherwise, my stay was fantastic. I am definitely planning to return soon!
