Pasiphae Heraklion Hotel - Heraklion (Crete)

3-star transit hotel near Heraklion port and airport

Location and Access

Pasiphae Hotel lies 0.5 miles from Heraklion port and 2 miles from Heraklion International Airport, placing guests within a 10-minute walk of the city's archaeological museum and bus connections to Knossos. The hotel sits on a quiet street, yet the bus stop for Line 1 to the airport is 500 ft away. A pedestrian walk leads downhill to the harbor, where sunset views and local bakeries and tavernas are found within 300 ft.

Accommodations

Each room at Pasiphae Heraklion Hotel includes a private bathroom with shower, air conditioning, a TV, and a minibar stocked with complimentary bottled water. Guests can choose between Double or Twin Rooms with balconies, Single Rooms, and Inner Rooms without exterior windows. Some units offer a side sea view, and all feature blackout shutters that keep the room dark overnight.

Services and Practical Amenities

The front desk provides express check-in/check-out, luggage storage, and private check-in options, along with car hire and taxi arrangement services. Daily housekeeping is included, and guests have access to a safety deposit box at reception. Free on-site parking is available, and the hotel offers a designated smoking area.

Breakfast and Dining

Breakfast is served as a personalized plated meal brought to the table, not a buffet: guests receive percolated coffee, freshly toasted ham and cheese sandwiches, eggs, jam, and juice. A nearby supermarket is a short stroll from the hotel, and several local tavernas and a coffee spot called 'Steam' are within walking distance. The hotel does not operate a restaurant or bar, so guests eat out for lunch and dinner.

Transit and Stopover Suitability

Pasiphae Heraklion Hotel is positioned on the flight path to Heraklion Airport, with planes flying directly over the building; flights stop for most of the night, around 5 a.m., making it tolerable for stopover guests. The hotel has no elevator from ground floor to reception; the lift begins one floor up, which may be challenging for guests with heavy suitcases. Guests on morning ferry departures can walk to the port in 10 minutes, and the hotel allows luggage to be left at reception after checkout.
