Best travel time & practical tips

Your trip falls in the first week of April. At this time, it’s already pleasantly mild in Crete: daytime temperatures average 18 to 20 degrees, at night it cools down to about 12 degrees. Rain showers are possible, but the sun already shows itself frequently. The beaches are not yet crowded, and you can enjoy the sights without large crowds. On site, the best way to get around is by city bus or on foot. Rental cars are still cheap in April – a car is worth it for excursions into the surroundings, such as to Knossos or the coast. Money-saving tip: Use public transportation for short distances and buy tickets directly at the kiosk. Food in tavernas away from tourist areas is also significantly cheaper.

The Atrion Hotel – central and comfortable

The Atrion Hotel is a 3-star hotel in the center of Heraklion, just a few minutes’ walk from the harbor. The location is ideal for exploring the city: restaurants, shops, and sights are easily reachable on foot. The hotel offers comfortable double rooms and included breakfast, which gives you a good start to the day. Reviews particularly highlight the central location and the friendly staff. For the price of 45 euros per night for a double room, the Atrion Hotel is a solid choice for budget-conscious travelers.
