The hotel owner Thomas was the best... he went out of his way to make sure our visit was perfect. As an American you know we love ice in our drinks he was able to get me ice packs for my room... above and beyond. I will always stay when i go to crete. Top notch hotel... ##### Sande Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Claire 16 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Lovely building Conveniently placedVery nice people Parking nearby My only thing was I didn't realise there is no-one on site apart from to check you in clean etc ##### Claire Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Megan 11 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities No place to park.

Both hosts very welcoming & kind w/area info/map. Helped w/luggage & thoroughly explained use & access to property. Lots of towels/blankets w/comfy beds. TV w/cable channels. Nice coffee/tea service w/2 big water jugs in room. Very clean & spacious room; gave us upgrade to larger room for original rate. Provided early checkin upon request. Hotel is very cute & bohemian - 1 flight of stairs to rooms, FYI. Lovely courtyard w/covered area to sit rooms have small veranda w/chairs & table. A wonderful oasis in city - Highly recommend! ##### Diane Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Behnam 17 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We liked: location (central and walking distance to old town), nicely renovated, clean with a lot of charm! Staff friendly and helpful. We didn’t care for: kids screaming and loud speaker at the schoolyard next block at 8am every morning; planes landing and taking off past midnight every night. Also note: loved the property but be aware no elevators. ##### Behnam Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brittany 6 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I loved my stay at Porta Medina. It really made my time at Heraklion a pleasant one. The room was big and spacious, good hot water and shower pressure. Nice touches like coffee pod machine, water carafe, beautiful courtyard and wonderful artwork dotted around the property. Thomas was very helpful to me and a lovely resident artist. Staying at the property, I realise it is something really special with historical references to the Ottoman period and an old water well (now covered over for safety reasons). If I was going to be picky on one thing, there was a little bit of mould in the shower. It wasn’t a big deal and the place is absolutely immaculate otherwise. ##### Brittany Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John M. R. 2 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Like many boutique hotels in ancient city centers, it's a wee bit hard to find at first. But what a treasure! It's a beautiful town house. Our room on the ground (main) floor had a large bedroom with beautiful high, painted ceilings, as well as a sitting area that opened onto a secluded corner of the garden. Maria and Thomas were excellent hosts, arriving within minutes when locked ourselves out late one evening. Walking distance to so many wonderful sites, museums, and restaurants. There's no breakfast, but several places are within a few meters; we loved Queen, on the corner. Highly recommended; we would surely stay again on any next visit to Heraklion. ##### John M. R. Stayed 4 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Isabelle 26 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Das Hotel war optisch erstmal wirklich sehr sehr schön. Wenn man aber genauer hinsah sah man, dass die Armaturen teilweise kaputt waren, der Griff der Badezimmertüre super locker war und auch teilweise Flecken am Bett waren. Zudem kommt es, dass es sehr hellhörig ist. Das Bett ist sehr weich, muss man mögen, war aber für eine Nacht ok. Dennoch sieht es wirklich im allgemeinen sehr nett aus und es war super zentral zu allen möglichen Restaurants und der Altstadt. Für eine Nacht völlig ok. Würden jedoch nicht länger bleiben wollen, da wir die Nacht über kaum Schlaf bekamen. ##### Isabelle Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Sea View Hotel & Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Sea-View-Hotel-Apartments.h5370708.Hotel-Information) > > [Begeti Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Begeti-Bay.h10295324.Hotel-Information) > > [Minos Ambassador - Adults only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Minos-Ambassador.h45826210.Hotel-Information) > > [Arminda Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Arminda-Hotel-Spa.h10630918.Hotel-Information) > > [Nana Princess Suites, Villas & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Nana-Princess-Suites.h19806167.Hotel-Information) > > [Crete Golf Club Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Crete-Golf-Club-Hotel.h22748806.Hotel-Information) > > [Koni Village Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Koni-Village-All-Inclusive.h8415383.Hotel-Information) > > [Enorme Santanna Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ierapetra-Hotels-Enorme-Santanna-Beach.h44438252.Hotel-Information) > > [Minos Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Minos-Hotel.h8011612.Hotel-Information) > > [Free Breakfast at villa with Outdoor & Indoor Pool, Hot Tub, Home Cinema](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Free-Breakfast-At-Villa-With-Outdoor-Indoor-Pool.h27558930.Hotel-Information) > > [Kiani Beach Resort Family](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Kiani-Beach-Resort-Family-All-Inclusive.h3998357.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantis Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Atlantis-Beach-Hotel.h12465368.Hotel-Information) > > [Moonlight Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Moonlight-Hotel.h19477661.Hotel-Information) > > [Anastasia Hotel Stalis](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Anastasia-Hotel-Stalis.h1368515.Hotel-Information) > > [Kedrissos Hotel Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Kedrissos-Hotel-Apartments.h16414878.Hotel-Information) > > [Apollonia Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malevizi-Hotels-Apollonia-Beach-Resort-Spa.h1522111.Hotel-Information) > > [Amirandes, A Grecotel Resort to Live](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Amirandes-Grecotel-Boutique-Resort.h1862564.Hotel-Information) > > [Bio Suites Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Bio-Suites-Hotel.h1522055.Hotel-Information) > > [Sitia Beach City Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sitia-Hotels-Sitia-Beach-City-Resort-Spa.h1674729.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Heights Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Village-Heights-Resort.h14931312.Hotel-Information) > > [Domes Zeen Chania, a Luxury Collection Resort, Crete](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Domes-Zeen-Chania.h25749963.Hotel-Information) > > [Ikones Seafront Luxury Suites - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Ikones-Seafront-Luxury-Suites-Adults-Only.h31709128.Hotel-Information) > > [The City Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-The-City-Hotel-Suites.h36768747.Hotel-Information) > > [Theartemis Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Theartemis-Palace.h2336425.Hotel-Information) > > [Petra Mare - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ierapetra-Hotels-Petra-Mare-All-Inclusive.h2144254.Hotel-Information) > > [Numo Ierapetra Beach Resort Crete, Curio Collection Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ierapetra-Hotels-NUMO-Ierapetra-Beach-Resort.h7782201.Hotel-Information) > > [Semiramis Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Semiramis-Village.h10623973.Hotel-Information) > > [Macaris Suites and SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Macaris-Suites-And-SPA.h1099883.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Porto Rethymno](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Aquila-Porto-Rethymno.h1636850.Hotel-Information) > > [Thalassa Boutique Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Thalassa-Boutique-Hotel-Adults-Only.h22137467.Hotel-Information)
