"Nice hotel and a good location in town and short drive to many wineries (5 minute walk to restaurants). Quiet. Outdoor private hot tub is not heated (so was not really useable in October)."

"It was a lovely stay, the staff were lovely, very friendly and kind. Bus stop 3 is a short walk which was very handy. You can get the bus from the airport to the place. Saves a lot of money instead of a taxi."

A Wonderful Stay at Golden Grain Beachfront Hotel!
We truly had a fantastic stay at Golden Grain Beachfront Hotel! From the moment we arrived, we enjoyed every moment. It was such a lovely experience, and we couldn't have asked for a better beachfront holiday.
The food was delicious, and the service was excellent throughout our stay. The staff were attentive, friendly, and always on point, making us feel well looked after and helping to make our holiday even more special.

Really friendly welcome even though we were late arriving. Rooms are stylish, modern and clean. We only stayed one night as we were moving to a resort the next day but would definitely visit again.

This was our second time at Sofia Hotel. we arrived Friday 15th September after a late flight. It's conveniently close to the airport. The staff are very accommodating and friendly. We ate a light tasty meal, followed by cretan wine. We felt so relaxed.
The hotel offers a comfortable nights stay. By morning we felt refreshed. Breakfast was most pleasant sat outside. It's up to you if you sit in or out. The choice of breakfast was vast. It ranges from continental, cooked, cereals, fruit and...

Loved the modern design and well equipped room. Convenient location, only an easy twenty minute walk to the city centre. Plenty of restaurants and coffee shops within 2 minutes of the hotel. Easy ten minute walk to catch direct local bus to Knossos, you don't need an expensive tour bus, as I went for the eight am opening to miss the crowds and had left by ten am when all the tour busses turn up.

I had a really nice stay at Chapter 02 Gallery Suites. The apartment was clean and comfortable, communication with the staff via WhatsApp was smooth, and check-in and check-out were straightforward.
A special mention goes to the lovely team at Chapter 03 Café Bistro. The food was fresh, tasty and delicious, and the place was busy every day, which says a lot about its popularity. It’s not a traditional Greek taverna, but the menu offers Greek-inspired dishes, from Greek salad to creative burgers...

We had a town view room but it was still lovely. and the room was nice and bright.The breakfast was very rich, enough to fill your eyes. Also a lovely restaurant and bar. The service was very considerate and the staff were fantastic. Also the hotel itself provided excellent arranged day trips all over the island for a small fee, where we were collected from the hotel. If we go back to Iraklion again we will stay at this hotel AGAIN.

This is a new hotel. Room was lovely - huge with beautiful views and a private hot tub on the very large balcony. Staff were very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

The ground floor apartment has a courtyard and hotub. The suite was super clean. Both reception and cleaning staff were really helpful.
There are shops and restaurants all within walking distance. The beach is about 30 mins walk away head to the port and walk right along the front. Would definitely book this property again

The best time to visit Skalani is during the shoulder seasons, specifically from April to early June or from September to October.
These months offer pleasant weather, with warm but not excessively hot temperatures, making it ideal for exploring the olive groves and vineyards around Skalani. You'll find fewer crowds compared to the peak summer months, allowing for a more relaxed experience. This period is particularly good for couples looking for a tranquil escape, as you can enjoy the local tavernas and wine-tasting experiences without the hustle and bustle.
For those interested in outdoor activities like hiking or cycling, the spring and autumn provide comfortable conditions. The landscape is also at its most beautiful during these times, with spring bringing wildflowers and autumn offering the grape harvest.
