Melpo Hotel, Hersonissos

Melpo Hotel is a straightforward base in Hersonissos, Crete Island, Greece, set on Eletheriou Venizelou Str in the Limenas Chersonisou area. With a seasonal outdoor pool, a terrace and garden spaces, and free WiFi, it suits travelers who want an easy rhythm of mornings out and downtime back at the property. The hotel’s free breakfast is a practical start before you head toward the coast or nearby attractions. Check-in runs from noon until midnight, and the 24-hour front desk and luggage storage make arrivals and departures less stressful.

In terms of location, you can reach Hersonissos Port in about 1 km and Star Beach in roughly 2 km, which helps if your itinerary mixes seaside time with family-friendly entertainment.

If you’re looking for a change of pace, Aquaworld Aquarium & Reptile Rescue Centre is approximately 6 km out.

Guest feedback is limited, with an overall 6/10 rating based on 2 reviews, so it’s best approached as a value-minded option rather than a guaranteed standout. Some travelers tend to appreciate the basic, functional setup and the ability to return to a quiet outdoor area between outings, while the smaller review sample means you should weigh your expectations carefully. Best for couples and families who prioritize location, breakfast, and a simple place to reset between Cretan adventures.
