The experience was amazing. Maria received us with a drink and upgraded our room. The room was big with a comfortable bed, good pillows and lots of space. The staff at the reception was unbelievable, very helpful and cordial. they even packed us breakfast the last day when we were leaving early. Parking was not an issue as the hotel staff took care of it. Breakfast was included and had a great variety of choices, from fruits to cakes, included hot meals (we had to skip lunch after that) I highly recommend staying here.

Wonderful hotel in terms of staff (who were so helpful and friendly), location (a few minutes walk to the harbour and old town which are magical) and hotel amenities. Breakfast selection was very good and whilst the pool area is small, we had no problem getting a sun bed when we wanted. We booked two premium rooms (as travelling with our daughter) which were very nice, were given complimentary bottles of water daily, as well as toiletries being replenished. The only downside was that we couldn’t use our balconies, as across the narrow street opposite a large building was being renovated.

Great stay in Chania

Perfect hotel for our Chania adventures. The hotel is a short walk to the old town and harbor. It’s also adjacent to the bus station - that made it easy for our trek to Samariá Gorge. The staff was incredibly helpful with tips for things to do and best way to do them. We would absolutely stay again.

We absolutely loved this hotel and had the best stay. The staff were so friendly and attentive to our needs. The breakfast had so many options and the facilities at the hotel were top notch. The bed was so comfortable, we had the best sleeps! Also loved the cats that slept near the pool (sammy was the cutest). Would definitely recommend anyone to say here on their stay, and if we ever came back to Chania we would stay here 100%.
