InterContinental Crete by IHG

About this hotel

On the waterfront at Agios Nikolaos, this InterContinental property looks out across Mirabello Bay; Heraklion airport is under an hour's drive. The design is contemporary and the facilities modern, with space set aside for conferences and for wellness. The Greek restaurants are directed by Chef Nikos Roussos, a consultant with 2** Michelin stars. His menus are refined comfort: modern readings of Greek cooking, seasonal ingredients, Cretan food traditions kept in mind. The Spa Center covers 500m2 and treats wellness broadly — health, stress relief, recovery, general wellbeing — rather than stopping at cosmetic treatments. Excursions are put together to suit: archaeological walking tours, visits to traditional villages, gorges, vineyards and olive groves.
