Royal And Imperial Belvedere

Nestled among several acres of palm trees and lawns, just outside the town centre of Hersonissos, this hotel offers an array of top class amenities to go with its peaceful location on the north coast of Crete.

It’s an ideal spot for families thanks to the kids' club and animation team providing wide-ranging entertainment for all ages, as well as five outdoor swimming pools where you can cool off from the sun, including a couple of shallow ones designed for children, one of which comes with sprinklers and mini slides. There’s no shortage of ways to stay active, too, with tennis courts, beach volleyball, a fitness room, and a mini golf course on-site. You can swim in the indoor pool open in May, September, and October, too. Massages are also available on request, should you fancy treating yourself to a little extra pampering.

Expect plenty of variety when it comes to food and drink, with a couple of international buffet restaurants serving plentiful breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You’ll also find a couple of snack bars by the pools – one deals in fast food like pizzas, kebabs, burgers and other light bites to keep you going throughout the day, while the other offers street food style eats like gyros. Then you've got two à la carte eateries that specialise in Asian and Greek cuisine. Four bars, meanwhile, keep the drinks flowing. 

All rooms come with individually-controlled air conditioning, free high-speed Wi-Fi access, and a private balcony or terrace – everything you need for a restful stay on one of the most idyllic Greek islands.
