Samaria Hotel, hotel in Chania Town

Located in the heart of Chania, within 450 metres from the Venetian harbour, the modern Samaria Hotel is ideally situated just above the main square, next to the central bus station.

I'm delighted to highlight the exceptional hospitality provided by the staff at this hotel. Their warmth and willingness to assist were truly remarkable, making our stay incredibly pleasant. Not only were they readily available at all times, but their eagerness to help with any inquiry, no matter how trivial, was truly commendable. This attention to cleanliness greatly contributed to our overall comfort and satisfaction during our stay. Situated in close proximity to the old city, it offered convenient access to historical sites and cultural attractions. This prime location allowed us to explore the charm and beauty of the old city with ease, adding to the enjoyment of our visit.

FAQs about hotels in Chania Town









A Charming Crossroads of Civilisations

Situated on the west part of Crete, the city of Chania is the second largest in this beautiful Greek island. Featuring rich history, breathtaking architecture and pristine beaches, Chania will take you to a fascinating journey through time.

Get your camera and wander around the narrow alleys of the old town or walk on the romantic promenade area of the old harbour with the iconic lighthouse. Set on a small hill, the central part of the town is called Kastelli and is populated since the Neolithic period.

A crossroads of civilisations, the city of Chania offers a harmonic combination of Venetian, Turkish and traditional Greek architecture. Do not miss the Greek Orthodox Cathedral Church of Chania, the Mosque of the Janissaries and the Venetian Fortification Walls.

The vibrant area of the new and old town has local taverns serving delicious regional specialties and tsikoudia. If you are lucky you might hear a Cretan mantinada, an improvised folk song about the everyday life.  

Located on the Akrotiri Peninsula, the Chania International Airport is about 17 km from the city centre and offers year-round and seasonal flights to London, Brussels, Athens and Thessaloniki. Booking.com will help you find the right hotel, guest house or apartment in Chania.

    I was in Chania for 4 days and it wasn’t enough for me.

    I was in Chania for 4 days and it wasn’t enough for me. I’d recommend At least 5. The medieval town is breathtaking, you can walk through time travel on cobblestone streets that narrow and get a half liter of wine for 5 euros each and have dinner made my locals family for 5 euro. I ate a gourmet dinner on the boardwalk with a carafe of wine dinner for 2 only 65 euros and it was the most amazing food I have ate in my life. I highly recommend.

    Stunning place, wonderful people and delicious food. Nea Chora beach is fantastic and there are many restaurants and cafés to choose from. I love to go before and after the high season. Easy to rent a car and drive around, the driving experience was fantastic, good roads and signals. People drive sensibly and there is free parking all over the island with no tolls at all.

    The old town is lovely full of independent stores selling leather goods, clothes etc. Eat at one of the restaurants overlooking the port and lighthouse for fantastic views. Loved the backdrop of the snow covered mountains while basking in the 26 degrees sun despite it still being March.

    We loved the Venetian port and the Old Town.

    We loved the Venetian port and the Old Town. One of our favourite places was a restaurant called Paradisiaco in the upper part of the port on Theotokopoulou Street. It is a very interesting neighbourhood. A beautiful art shop with a friendly owner is in the same area. Another good restaurant is Maridaki in Maridaki Steet.

    Its a quiet, mountainside/seaside town with amazing food. I dont think I had one bad meal there. The beaches are amazing and the water is a crystal clear green/blue. I'm sure there are lots of activities and things to do involving hiking and snorkeling. If you're looking for lots of shopping from big retail, I dont think this is the place for you. A lot of the shops are local businesses.

    A very good place as a base for the western part of the island. When visiting the eastern or central part, it is better to move around. However, the western part is famous for its greatest attractions.

    Staying at The Tanneries was the best way to end our stay in Greece. The facility is gorgeous and the view of the water from our room was stunning. The beds were incredibly comfortable and I loved that we had both a spa tub and a steam shower in our room. The staff went above and beyond during our stay -- setting up an incredible boat trip to small beaches on the south side of the island, packing breakfasts for us when we had to leave before the dining room opened -- and we loved chatting with Sylvia about her favorite parts of Crete!

    Helena Hotel is the best experience we had on Crete. The room was super clean and well equipped, but what the most important – is the view of the city center from your window. I found extremely satisfying just watching the city living, and our room was the best spot for it. Great thanks to the guy from the reception (I am so sorry not remembering your name!) who recommended many delicious places to visit. We covered several of them and every time it was something worthy. Will return to spend more time there. Highly recommended

    My room truly had the best view of the harbor in Old Town Chania! My little porch looked out over everything and it was especially beautiful at sunrise and sunset and I could see the lighthouse perfectly too! The room itself was lovely, comfortable, and relaxing! And the staff was so wonderful and friendly, and I truly appreciated them working with me with my odd times of an early arrival and leaving early as well in the morning. They helped me arrange a taxi right to the door for my early departure! Thank you!!😊

    The property is in a superb location. It has spectacular views from the rooftop. The owner (6th generation) attended at property daily to greet guests and provide helpful tips to ensure you are maximizing and enjoying your stay. I always book five star resorts/hotels when I go away, and this property exceeded my hopes for an exceptional stay. The room was more spacious than I anticipated (2 children, 2 adults). We felt like we were in a picture book. I will always stay at this property when returning to Crete.

    I will never forget this hotel. Lovely staff, beautiful room view (I had the room with the terrace), excellent wifi, best location right in the center. The staff helped me organize two amazing days in Crete. It was a very special place and I wished I stayed another night. I was working remotely too and while that is not the best option in Chania, this hotel was a really good place to do that. The staff also had excellent restaurant and food recommendations. They were very warm and helpful.

    Wow, amazing. I really wasn’t expecting this high quality of a room for the price I paid. Everything is high quality; from the comfort of the bed to the high tech air conditioning you normally only find in 5 star hotels. The location is also in the heart of the heart of the old town and yet was still quite at night! A bottle of wine left for me as well :) I will always try and book this place whenever I visit Chania. Excellent communication by staff. Highly recommended.
