I stayed at the Olympic for two nights, the room was very pokey by our standards but quite lavish by Greek standards. The rooms were clean & bathroom a bit small. However, it was centrally located in the middle of Heraklion, convenient to everything, there was a market nearby, lots of restaurants & many other attractions were within walking distance.... More

If there was one word to describe the hotel it would be 'Location' Surely you can do a lot when the hotel is in the heart of the action... shopping, museum, cathedral and restaurants. The hotel was just a place to lay our heads but the location facilitated exploring Heraklion... Tip... there is a bank that exchanges currencies if you... More

New clean furiture, towels and sheets. Located in the center of the city. Cheep. Very, very small room, smaller than 13sqm showen on website.

We stayed 3 nights here. The room and bathroom were good size and clean. We enjoyed the location ie short walk to shopping, restaurants, port, buses and attractions. All staff were positive and helpful. Breakfast was very good. We would stay here again.

We stayed here in September 2011 while we were on honeymoon trip around Europe and especially Greece. So, our choice of Olympic was not based on tripadvisor but on a suggestion of my friend who stayed before. He was right. The hotel is located in a nice area where there is a bus station in 1 minute from the hotel.... More

Nothing but good things to say about this hotel. It is centrally located in a clean, safe area, close to museums, shopping, the waterfront. Rooms are large and well equipped with bathtub, satellite TV, etc. I travel on a budget and really felt that I received excellent value here. I highly recommend it.

The hotel was easy to find, it was central to the main tourist areas including the Archaeological Museum (still mainly closed but with one small gallery worth visiting). It was also close to many bars. Reasonable prices online for a short stay. Staff were friendly in the cafe and bar (they chilled a bottle of wine for us 'cos the... More
