Local gem
Super close to the airport and was close to where I wanted to be as I was in Crete for a friend's wedding. Pool area was nice with enough sun loungers for October. I stayed in a single room and was a decent size for the little time I spent in there. It had a tiny balcony attached, which I wasn't expecting but was nice to sit outside in the evening and read. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Sofia Hotel was conveniently located for a walk to the archaeological museum and an early morning departure at the airport. Hotel is nice and on a quiet street with convenient parking. Only problem wa that the bedding was uncomfortable and made sleep difficult.

A great stay
We knew we were flying in late and so were looking for a hotel close to the airport for one night before continuing on to our ultimate destination. We saw a number of very positive reviews for the this hotel and decided to make a reservation, which turned out to be a great experience. We decided to walk from the airport to the hotel since the distance was only about 1.6 km, one mile or so, and walking proved no problem as we only had a one backpack and one carry on bag each. The room was simple and clean, the breakfast was great, the staff were polite, the atmosphere was laid back and comfortable, and we found the price to be very affordable. Exactly what we were hoping for in a one night stay. Overall a great stay.

Perfect Airport Hotel
We arrived after a late flight from the UK. Our flight landed on time at 22:00, and it took us until 22:45 (we had hold baggage) until we were clear of the airport. We took a taxi from the airport (15€). We chose to spend one night near the airport and were able to walk to the Europcar pickup point the next morning. Check in was quick and easy. The hotel was much better than I had anticipated. The rooms were clean and modern. There is a fridge which had bottled water in it. We had a small balcony. The bar is open until 01:00 and bar snacks are available until 23:00. There is complimentary raki in the foyer. Wine is available by the jug or bottle and reasonably priced. The bartender was expecting us to take the bottle and glasses back to our room, but we sat outdoors and relaxed. Aircon in the room was effective. We didn’t use the pool but the area looks clean and well maintained. We got breakfast at a local bakery which was a couple of minute’s walk away.
