Truly a lovely hotel in an old and beautiful home that once belonged to the owners great grandparents. The hotel contacted us to get our estimated arrival time and one of the owners greeted us, gave us a map and explained the town layout and gave us great restaurant tips (try Peskesi in particular). Very convenient location too.

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 Staying at the property, I realise it is something really special with historical references to the Ottoman period and an old water well (now covered over for safety reasons).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.

Walkable to the port, shopping, and dining. Very nice renovated villa. Quiet building. Street noise can be loud and planes fly over, but settles down around 11. We were happy to stay here and not the normal touristy places.

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.

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.

Great stay highly recommend

Great stay, perfect location, beautiful building. The room was clean, spacious, stylish & comfortable - the bed was a little soft but thats personal preference. Communication for our late arrival was good, we had no worries about arriving after 11pm. We would definitely stay the next time we're in heraklion.

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...

An absolutely beautiful property full of character and original features, renovated in a tasteful and contemporary style. The room was very spacious and clean and the hosts, Thomas and Maria, we’re incredibly welcoming, helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay here again without hesitation and strongly recommend to anyone visiting Heraklion!
