Artion City Boutique Hotel occupies a meticulously restored Venetian-era building in Heraklion's historic center, originally constructed in the 16th century as a merchant's residence.
The property underwent extensive renovation to preserve its original architectural character while introducing contemporary hospitality infrastructure, creating a venue where centuries-old stone walls frame modern wedding celebrations.
Located at the intersection of Tombazes and Monis Kardiotissis streets, this 4.8-rated establishment serves as both accommodation and ceremony space for destination weddings.
Nice boutique hotel with a great location by the city center. Not ideal if you have your own vehicle. The room and atmosphere is great. Breakfast in the morning is great to. However, I did have issues with the shower having no water pressure for the hot water for the night I was here. Would have been a 5 star rating if not for these two factors.
