My family and I had a wonderful stay at this place. Rua Augusta is conveniently located with in walking distance to some of the best restaurants and ferry terminal. The best part was the ever so responsive and helpful host Theodosia.
Rua Augusta exceeded our expectations. We were in the England suite. Was the perfect size. Modern. Very, very clean and well laid out. Finishes were high end. Washer/Dryer combo was very convenient and the location was perfect. Will definitely book here again.
Location is fantastic. Walkable to restaurants, museums and the port. Materials and finishes in the room are high quality and you can tell the owners put attention to details. Our family of 4 loved the stay!

The most beautiful place I've ever been. Very clean and comfortable. The location is perfect if you would love to be in the center of busy city.
The hotel is right in the middle of Heraklion old town. Everything is walkable. The hotel is very clean. Spotless in fact. Marble everywhere. Our suite is very well equipped, very modern. It was very quiet, despite being in the middle of town.
There is no on-site host. Entry is by door-code. Communication with off site hosts is via WhatsApp and was very responsive.
There are a few steps up to the font door, and the elevator is very small. So this might not suite disabled people.
Would definitely stay here again if we return to Heraklion.
