Looks like no large chain hotels in Heraklion so might be wise to get downtown and assume there are fireworks and stuff at midnight?

Heraklion on NYE is zoo-ish. The city centre will be packed with youngsters well into the wee hours. Worth seeing that? Well, depends on your preference for what you consider to be fun. My "kids" (in their thirties) love it, I don't!
