We had an awesome stay at Lemon Garden. Great thanks to Manos who really helped out with lots of useful tips including restaurants and beaches nearby we should go to. He suggested an amazing breakfast place and also arranged a taxi for us which was very kind. The place itself is bang in the centre of Heraklion old town and a walk to the Morosini Fountain. Highly recommended.

Loved everything about this property, including the banana tree which we ate fresh bananas from. My only issues were the extremely small shower and no ac in the bedroom. Once in the shower, it is difficult to move. You are unable to bend over, there's limited space for turning around, or lifting your legs. We eventually figured out a system but it was messy. And just in case you are wondering, this was also an issue with my very slender daughter. I would still recommend it because it was just a unique apartment, there's a cool shaded garden and the host was very friendly and helpful.

This was absolutely my favorite place to stay in Crete. Absolutely loved my stay in Heraklion. Manos is fantastic. Excellent host. Nice spacious room with a kitchen and fridge. Excellent cannister of coffee, and I want to emphasize how good the coffee was. Very good. Espresso machine. Beautiful courtyard, wooden gates that separate the courtyards into smaller enclosures. A second small sit out attached to the room. I loved my morning sitting in what felt like my private very green courtyard with the lemon trees cacti and other plants.

Manos deserves special mention as a host. He goes out of his way to make one very comfortable. I asked for help with hiring a cab driver to go to the Palinas monastery. He suggested Bessie who I recommend. He called the monastery on my behalf and spoke to the nun in Greek, asked after the opening times. Lovely place to stay. I would stay there again in a heartbeat. My favorite place to stay in Crete.

Très bien situé, à proximité des remparts pour circuler en voiture ou faire le tour de la ville à pied, le logement bénéficie du charme et du calme d'un quartier très propre et très dynamique...petit bémol : beaucoup de travaux encours et quasi impossibilité de se garer tout près de la résidence ( beaucoup de rues fermées à la circulation) mais c'est temporaire !
Charmante cour arborée, au calme , logement décoré avec goût et matériaux de qualité
Manos a été très disponible pour nous aider à nous garer...
Très bonne adresse à recommander !

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Lemon Garden! We had the upstairs room and it was really quiet and comfortable. We didn’t spend a ton of time in the room/at the property as we were only in the area for 2 nights but it was a comfortable place to come back to after days out sight seeing and we loved the kitchen and included dish ware for our breakfasts in the morning. The laundry was handy although be warned there is no dryer so plan accordingly to hang your clothes. We were able to find street parking right close by both days with no issues which was a plus!

This is an excellent property with a good size kitchen and apartment sized fridge. The owner met us at the residence and showed us around and helped us find a place to park our rental car. There is lots of free street parking available. The laundry room is a little building inside the courtyard which was very convenient. There is an excellent market less than a five minute walk away and it's an easy walk into Heraklion.

•The Lemon Garden Residence was a lovely place to land when arriving to Heraklion for the first time. Manos, the owner, went above and beyond and showed the most welcoming hospitality. We were able to text him throughout the duration of our stay, for recommendations, help, etc. (He was kind enough to print our tickets for our bus to Chania - just an example of how hospitable he was!) The hotel itself was lovely. We had a beautiful room. The mini fridge came stocked with cold water and fresh fruit Manos had grown on his Organic farm. The AC worked well, the shower was stocked with Korres products, and it felt plenty spacious for two people. Manos provided a map of the local area, with landmark sights and attractions, and gave us recommendations for restaurants and activities. The garden surrounding the rooms was one of our favorite parts - the plants and lemon trees were beautifully curated and cared for. We felt the listing accurately depicts the rooms, but we wanted to share more photos of the garden because it was too beautiful not to! It was conveniently located - a mere 5 minute walk to desirable attractions, shopping, and restaurants, but the hotel itself was located on a quiet street - it felt like the best of both worlds.
•We arrived rather late our first night, but Manos was still happy to meet us, show us our room and the grounds. He recommended a small, local restaurant that was right up the street (turn left when you exit the gate, and it was a favorite.

Séjour fantastique de 2 nuits au cœur d’Heraklion. Cette résidence, en retrait du tumulte de la ville, est absolument charmante. L’hôte est au petit soin. Nous avons apprécié la bouteille d’eau et le petit déjeuner mis à notre disposition ( café, beurre, confiture, biscottes ).
Un peu difficile d’accès en voiture à cause des travaux. Nous nous sommes garés au Robotic Parking ( 8€ les 24h ) à 5 min à pied.
