Aquila Atlantis Hotel

City stays can often feel rushed and noisy. Aquila Atlantis Hotel offers a calmer base right in the heart of Heraklion, where everything feels within easy reach. Set near the harbour, the hotel blends modern comfort with views of the city’s historic side, giving your stay a stronger sense of place.

This is one of the largest hotels in the city, yet it feels well organised and easy to settle into. The mix of business-ready spaces and relaxed leisure areas suits travellers who want both work and downtime in one trip. Couples will enjoy the rooftop setting and spa, while families benefit from spacious rooms and central access to attractions.

With the museum just a short stroll away and the port close by, getting around is simple. It feels less like a stopover and more like a well-placed base to explore Crete.
