Room was good for our family and the beds are comfortable. However the area around the hotel is noisy, both traffic and people. The room we had was particularly noisy as it was only a floor above street level. I would not stay here again if I was given a lower floor room. Breakfast is pretty average, again something I’d skip on a return visit.

This was our first time in Crete, and the Olive Green Hotel was the perfect place to stay. It's very centrally located, near the ferry docks, the airport, and numerous historical sites and museums. The entire staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The daily breakfast was extensive, well made, and the wonderful. The front desk staff gets an extra praise for handling every question and request we had promptly and in avery friendly manner. An added bonus is having a small park across the street with outdoor tables from the nearby restaurants. We highly recommend it!

We had a very pleasant stay at the Olive Green hotel. We stayed in it twice, once on the way in to Crete and before he headed back. Olive Green is a well appointed hotel in a very convenient location. It is easily accessible to all the interesting areas in Heraklion - the Archeological museum is a stone's throw away, and the port is about a 10 min walk. Tons of restaurants walkable from the hotel. The breakfast in the hotel was very nice. Its a great spread of Cretan items along with the usual fare. We really enjoyed trying out the different items. We got the executive room in one stay, and it was really nice with a wraparound balcony. The room itself is well appointed - has all the amenities in a compact and neatly setup spaces.

Great location in central Heraklion. Room was large but the shower and sink in our room were located in the middle of the room (not a separate bathroom; the toilet is a WC in a separate room). It means zero privacy for the shower. The staff wasn't warm but everyone was nice enough. There are fantastic restaurants within easy walking distance of the hotel. The port is also walking distance. There's a bus stop the other direction about 5 min away that goes to the airport or to Knossos. The location seriously can't be beat.

Good hotel *** we will stay again.

Loved the location. Central and easy walking distance from the centre and the excellent museum.
Friendly and helpful staff on reception and in the breakfast room. Comfortable beds and decent size shower. Plenty of hot water; no dressing gowns! Breakfast was good, excellent variety; but as is usual with Greek hotels, the hot food was more tepid than hot.
A couple of faults with the room which we reported and were assured would be dealt with, however we were only staying one night, so did not see results.
We have to go to Iraklio a few times a year and have stayed elsewhere before; but now we have found Olive Green. We will definitely make this our hotel of choice on our next visit.

Our particular room was quite loud at night until about midnight due to motorcycles blasting down the street (which was otherwise not common for us).

Upon arrival from Sydney we had a lot of luggage, we were not asked if we needed any assistance with our baggage and when asking for a luggage trolley the answer was no and the male receptionist advised we could not leave our car out the front - this was while we were still removing luggage.
Breakfast choices were fine although poorly organised with no one asking for room numbers upon arrival.
We were glad to only stay for one evening although were happy with the location being close to the port.

The staff was excellent. All the rooms face a street. We arrived on a Saturday night. We were transferred from a sister hotel, which was not open yet. There was noise all night long. There is a park with dining across from the front of the hotel. They moved us from the second to the sixth floor the next night. This was better. I would not stay here on a Saturday night or if you are concerned about noise. The shower was missing the plastic door sweep so water ran everywhere. This was not an issue with the new room.
