“Kronos Hotel, a two-star in Heraklion, impressed me with its harbor-view rooms and heartfelt service, especially the thoughtfully prepared early breakfast. While the bathrooms are compact, the prime location near the city center, coupled with the surprisingly quiet AC, makes it an excellent value. It's a warm, unpretentious base for exploring Crete.”
