“Hotel Iro benefits significantly from its close relationship with the adjacent Hotel Sergios, essentially extending a 2-star stay into a more comprehensive experience, in my opinion. Guests can readily access the better-appointed facilities of the Sergios, including its praised restaurant and sun-drenched pool, all while enjoying a prime location near Hersonissos's main attractions and transportation links; it's a practical choice, especially for those prioritizing value and location.”
