I was looking some weeks ago, to move away from Binance specially with idea of having EUR in mind.
Many people suggested me to go with Kraken

Today I was checking fees and I found that Kraken is somewhat expensive compared with Binance, like almost a 1.5% fee

Tremendous joke a 1,5% per transaction with Kraken. I've tested not only to LTC but EUR and same fees apply.
 
I did the transaction straight on the market, and it did not have barely any spread fee. I don't understand why, but this guys from Kraken charge some extra fees when you do the conversion straight from their pool (they don't seem to take money from the market, or they are simply fooling the guys on the "simple UI". Doesn't make any sense.
