Hilton is bringing its first Tapestry Collection hotel to the heart of Heraklion. The ÉRA Hotel Heraklion, scheduled to open in early 2026, marks Hilton’s expanding presence in sunny Crete. Teaming up again with Green Properties – Melakis S.A., Hiltons aims to blend Cretan charm with its signature hospitality.
Locals will recognise the address: the former Mediterranean Hotel, a landmark that’s undergoing a complete refresh, both inside and out. The location is prime – right by the Venetian Harbor and the city’s buzzing Central Market. Guests will have history, food, and sea views within easy reach, plus a stroll straight back to comfort after taking in the island spirit.
A Fresh Take on Cretan Hospitality
Forget bland conference rooms or cookie-cutter lobbies. The ÉRA Hotel Heraklion promises a strong local vibe and the kind of Greek welcome you hope for on vacation. The hotel’s 56 rooms are set in a completely renovated building, mixing classic Heraklion character with all the expected modern perks.
On top, quite literally, sits a rooftop restaurant with views of the Aegean Sea, perfect for snapping sunset selfies or sipping local wine. Guests can also look forward to a rooftop pool, a spa, a gym, a cosy café, and a library. The hotel will open all year, making it a flexible pick for sun-chasers and winter wanderers alike.
