Staying at Rea Hotel places you right in the cultural heart of Heraklion, with the Historical Museum of Crete as your neighbour. The atmosphere is unpretentious and focused on providing a comfortable base for exploring. Rooms are air-conditioned, ensuring a cool retreat after a day of sightseeing, and free Wi-Fi keeps you connected. While some rooms offer private bathrooms, others share facilities, catering to different budgets and preferences.

Our take

My advice: choose Rea Hotel for its location beside the Historical Museum of Crete rather than for its facilities. Rooms are air-conditioned with free WiFi, and Heraklion's main sights are within walking distance. Only some rooms have a private bathroom, so pick your room type carefully. An 8.3 score from more than 1,700 reviews suggests a straightforward stay that does what it promises.

  • ✓Take advantage of the central location and explore Heraklion's main attractions, like the Archaeological Museum and Venetian port, on foot.
  • ✓If you're travelling with family, consider the room options carefully to ensure the bathroom setup meets your needs.
  • ✓Utilize the nearby self-service laundry and internet point for added convenience during your stay.

Why guests love it

Rea Hotel stands next to the Historical Museum of Crete in Heraklion, a useful address for families who plan to see the city on foot. The rooms are simple and practical, with air-conditioning and free WiFi, though only some have a private bathroom, so check this when booking. There are no extra facilities listed, but an 8.3 score from over 1,700 reviews shows guests find it reliable. I recommend it for families who want a central, no-frills base in Heraklion.
