Fantastic time ! X
We had such a lovely time here the past few days and a big shout out to Lazaros who was so friendly and helpful. The whole team / staff were amazing. Location was close to everything and the atmosphere of the hotel was chilled and lovely and cool. We had a harbour view and it was spectacular. Had a mini bar in the room but didn’t feel the need to use it as we spent a lot of time out of the room and by the pool on the top floor. We didn’t use the pool but sunbathed and there were always plenty of beds.

In the center of Heraclion City ...
Having been completely satisfied with the Aquila hotels—and especially the Elounda Village and Rithymna Beach —during our previous visit to Crete, this time, as our plans included a lot of activities around Heraklion, we stayed at the Atlantis.
The facilities are very beautiful, with a particularly attractive design, and the lobby is exceptional—a very pleasant and convenient space whether for dining, a meeting or work (yes, we did this as well), or simply for a drink and some relaxation.
The breakfast was very good, and the food was excellent in everything we tried.
The room we stayed in had an amazing view of the harbor and the Koule.
As always, what made the biggest difference was the exceptional staff, who, with great enthusiasm and cheerfulness, went above and beyond what we’d expect from a hotel in this category.
It was a pleasant surprise to find that the hotel has a few free parking spaces available, as well as a partnership with a large underground parking garage located just a few meters away at a very low cost.
We can’t wait to visit Atlantis and wonderful Crete again.
Great Location!
Great location! It is within easy walking distance of the SeaJet Ferry Port and all the attractions around Liberty Square. The reception staff was friendly and helpful, and housekeeping was super efficient and attentive.

Buy your own water!
Nice hotel but not drinkable water - it only provides two 0.5L for 2 people/day. This isn’t right.
Highly Recommended
After reading TA reviews, we booked this hotel through Booking.com and it proved to be a perfect introduction to Crete. Our Classic room was really nice and the facilities in this well located hotel were fine. We also had a free taxi from the airport to the hotel, which was ideal and very much appreciated. However, two things really stood out, that made our 3 nights here perfect - the amazing staff and breakfast! The food selection was terrific and it's the only hotel we've ever visited that is able to cook perfect scrambled eggs! Also the staff, in particular in the restaurant, are superb, with the two Stella's making a classic "dream team" and the managers, Maria and Manolis, fronting a great set up. We'd certainly recommend the Aquila Atlantis and make a point of staying here again.
