Location

What better than reaping the rewards of a city location, all the while maintaining much needed privacy on your holidays? The city’s treasures and vibe lie within your reach, yet it’s hustle and bustle does not interrupt your stay at the Galaxy in the slightest.
Whether you are visiting us for business or leisure, our location will prove to be very convenient and utterly enjoyable. Primely located just outside of Heraklion’s vibrant center, and with the majority of riveting historical sites figuratively engulfing Galaxy Hotel, our contemporary venue is the ideal setting for your stay.

Heraklion is a city with ancient roots and, being a capital town, it is inextricably linked to Crete’s rich history, as its streets are laden with myth and legend. Like a vestibule of time, Heraklion is a city in which you can make interesting discoveries that will form a ...fresco of images in your mind while leaving you with a wondrous sense of awe. Graciously cosmopolitan, Heraklion consummately combines an eclectic modern vibe with a more demure, historical charm.

Dare to experience a myriad of sites that are scattered around our city and get to grips with the Cretan tradition and temperament. Soak up the history and be inspired by the aura of past grandeur, while at the same time indulging in Heraklion’s sophisticated modernity that Galaxy Hotel embraces to the core.
