I came for a holiday alone and I was a little bit worried about how it will turn out since it was the first time experiencing it, but all my expectations were exceeded. First of all, I was welcome by Rene that is such an amazing lovely young lady and genuinely kind. They immediately offered me a lemonade when I arrived since it has been a long trip. She told me that now it is time to relax because I am in holiday and I was absolutely amazed by her attention to details and her willingness to answer every question I had. There is something magic about Greece and I always feel welcome but here it was even better than usually. I came for Easter holiday so I was invited to an amazing party they held with the occasion. For the modest price of 14 euro I was able to participate and enjoy amazing live greek music, traditional Easter food, roasted lamb and many other things. I was impressed of the fact that Rene was always around and made me feel so good even if I was alone, but being extremely careful not to take any of my personal space. She has an amazing emotional intelligence. She introduced me to other people, she was always taking care of everyone to make sure we all feel great. The hotel also offered a little Easter gift in my room, red eggs and traditional cake, which again made me feel so welcome and really experience Orthodox Easter and greeks hospitality. The hotel was very clean, room was huge, everything was well taken care of. Breakfast was unbelievably varied, from english breakfast to Mediterranean choices..they even had onion rings which I never saw before for breakfast. Absolutely delicious and amazing. Overall, this was a truly amazing experience, the staff, the hotel, the food, the hospitality and care I felt were the perfect ingredients for a perfect holiday. Greece is a blessed country and I can feel it every time I come

Lovely hotel, let down by 2 silly things. Firstly, nobody was allowed to use the pool until 10.30am. Unclear why as breakfast was at 7.30 so most people were out by 9.30am. The over zealous entertainment lady made a small child cry for using the pool at 10.15. All seemed a bit dramatic, not bothering anyone and cleaning was done early morning and then water tested throughout the day when people were swimming. Nobody was near the breakfast area either. The other issue, room was lovely and new and staff were great. However, the lorry delivering linen pulled up directly outside our window each morning at 6.30am. Sat for 10 mins before driving away. Hard to sleep through even with ear plugs. Surely this could have been down at 7.30 onwards?! Breakfast was lovely. Hopefully these issues can easily be rectified by the hotel Manager to make it more enjoyable for future guests.

Our stay at Minos Hotel was not a pleasant experience, and I will briefly explain why. The hotel is actually a complex of buildings, so depending on where your room is located, the reception can be either close or quite far. In our opinion, this is not a 4-star hotel, but rather a 3-star one, as none of the buildings reflect a true 4-star standard. The carpets in the hallways are heavily stained, the rooms had ants (we even changed rooms due to a hot water issue, but both had ants), the pillows were so hard they were impossible to sleep on, and the elevators were old and very cramped. On top of that, we were also disappointed with the way service was handled at the restaurant. There was always someone at the entrance directing guests to a table, which made us feel like we couldn’t choose where to sit ourselves—something we found quite annoying. We had both breakfast and dinner included: while breakfast came with basic drinks such as water, juice, tea, and coffee, dinner only included food, with drinks charged separately. What was particularly frustrating was that the waiters would immediately clear away glasses if you chose not to order a drink, and they were constantly rushing around the tables, asking if you were “finished” and making a lot of noise with the dishes—especially the older staff members. Overall, we wouldn’t repeat our experience at Minos Hotel and I would not recommend it for a 4 star vacation. Regarding accessibility, keep in mind that from Heraklion Airport, you would need 2 more hours with the bus to get there (it’s not a long distance apparently, but consider all the stops included on the way to Minos).

Aboustley loved the hotel and especially the staff, I have a artistic 12 year old son and all the staff was very kind and very understanding of Ethan, This really made myself and my partner relax. A big thank you to Timothy and Erica for bring so kind to my son. It is a lovely hotel very clean and tidy and we would 100% recommend this hotel. Very close to the beach and restaurants and supermarket. The pool is lovely and clean. Thank you for a enjoyable stay 😊
