Holy crap... Hero Mode. This is not for the faint of heart. @_@ No pun intended.
In Hero Mode, not only do you take double the damage from monsters, but hearts DO NOT DROP AT ALL from Monsters, grass, jars, or AN-Y-THING! Heart flowers also do not exist. You had better either regularly stock up on fairies in the Skyview Spring or get good at catching bugs for enhanced potions because it's going to be a doozy not being able to get hearts from ANYTHING.
I'm up to Eldin Volcano on Hero Mode. I haven't died yet, even though I came close in the first dungeon due to negligence, but I'm not sure how long that luck will last. lol
Oh, man. Hero Mode is definitely a good challenge for Zelda veterans. It still may not be as hard as Zelda for the NES or Zelda II, but it's still pretty challenging. You certainly have to have a good grasp on the controls to survive well enough.
