El Greco Hotel Ierapetra

Welcome to El Greco Hotel Ierapetra Crete
The beautiful little town of Ierapetra is located south of the island of Crete and is known as one of the sunniest regions of Europe with more than three hundred days of sunshine a year. Endowed as the area is, in the center - just a breath away from its shores - El Greco Hotel is full of freshness and Cretan hospitality. It was recently redesigned focusing mainly in design as well as detail, ignoring the cost, thus creating with the same "love" that everyone would give to his home, a beautiful, warm atmosphere with a modern character and emphasis on calm. This balance is seen in every aspect of this boutique hotel, expressed through colors and lighting agreeably diffused, bringing out the refined lines and the plasticity of all details. The day starts as the warm sunray sneaks through the thick curtains and slowly stresses the earthy tones of the room, creating an increasingly strong need to go out to the balcony and admire the start of this new day. In front of you, the sea lies full of gold that reflects to your eyes, as the brisk sun hits it and is embraced by the Bay of Ierapetra. Along the coast, there is a pathway where you can find all kinds of retail stores bustling with the scents of traditional local products. This is the reason El Greco Hotel is something special, because you can eat your breakfast on this pathway having the Libyan sea next to your feet, as it is extended in the horizon, at the hotel’s restaurant named “purpura”. Its name is taken from the shells that give their red color to the clothes of nobles of old years. Thus “Porfyra” restaurant certainly has something of the prestige of the name. This is reflected by a first look at the decoration and then at the amazing menu, which offers modern Mediterranean dishes as well as traditional Cretan cuisine, which could not be missing.
