It was alright. Maybe more of a $40 a night hotel than the close to $70 that I paid but the staff was nice enough. Really not much of an advantage over some other slightly more expensive hotels or cheaper hostels

Good all rounder
arrived after midnight from the airport which is just up the road. Easy check in and after using the lift to take the luggage to the room, we had an ouzo out front of the hotel. Staff provided free of charge a plate of cold meats and cheeses. Not bad at 1am. room was ok for the night but wouldn't want a week there. Comfortable but a little cramped in the room and the ensuite shower/toilet. Breakfast included ( mostly Continental) . we went down late and the hot offer was now somewhat cool. Enough to get the day started. We have used this hotel several times each occasion we fly to Crete because of its nearness to the airport, a reasonable price for 2 people, breakfast included, good service and a faairly good bed for the night. So, yes , i recommend it.

No problems here!
Amazing service, great location by an amazing bakery, coffee shop & excellent prices. Given it is a bit noisy due to the planes coming and going from the airport, but that is expected given the proximity to the airport- fantastic staff in the hotel - no problems with my stay would 10/10 stay again, Thank you!

I’m rating this property on the basis of its price point. And on that basis, I cannot fault it. I needed an overnight stay close to the airport and, given all I wanted was a sleep-over, didn’t want to pay a small fortune. The hotel advertising is true to its word. It is no more than a 20 min walk from the airport & easy to find. There is a plentiful supply of restaurants, bars and shops on the doorstep. The room itself is basic, but completely functional, with a small bathroom & balcony. There was also a fridge. The room was clean and tidy. The TV worked. I found the bed comfortable and got a good sleep. The air conditioning looked new and worked well. The staff were all extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful. I was given great recommendations for an evening meal and coffee in the morning. For a cost-effective overnight stay for or from the airport, I doubt the Asterion could be bettered. I would happily stay again.

Friendly near to airport accomodation
Late night flight arrival and a quick taxi ride to the hotel. Just a one night stay. Has a small elevator big enough for one person with suitcases. Very friendly reception . Clean room with 2 single beds. Small balcony overlooking the street. Noise not a problem. Beds a bit hard. Small shower but more than adequate. Plenty of hot water. Nice lobby area and comfortable seats outside in addition. Lots of facilities close by-- shops, cafes, petrol. On the main road from the airport down to the centre and port area. Decent continental breakfast with wide assortment included with price. Overall, good value and just right for a night or two. Also the road outside has a good bus service from Herakleion centre to the airport. Would certainly stay there again.
