    Loved our stay here. The room was very nice, clean and confortable. We had a jacuzzi and the staff put a free bottle of Greek wine for us to welcome. The hotel is located in the old city, in front of the ocean port. We had a balcony with a beatiful view. The hotel has as well a big terrace, with a fantastic view that you can use whenever you want. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our stay included breakfast, which had a lot of variety and good Greek breakfast, which was served in the restaurant just under the hotel with a sea view.

    Perfect location, overlooking the action in the centre of town. Breakfast was on the waterfront, all the staff we met were pleasant, and being out of season the value was excellent. Come and visit, and try and get room 20.

    No isolation from bathroom. It's just a glass sliding door which gives no privacy.

    Nice location. Great restaurant. Very well preserved old building. Nice staff. Cleaning ladies were really hard workers.

    Access can be a little problem from the main road with children and luggage when one arrives first and to climb up the narrow stairs to the better rooms

    Bang in front of the lighthouse where all the action is till late in the night . A fun place to be in . The view was just as shown in the pictures overlooking the sea and the lighthouse . Staff is good and helpful.

    Lots of stairs. Not that it would have changed our plans, but it could for others.

    Bottle of wine upon arrival was an excellent touch after bus ride from Heraklion. Breakfast was wonderful and did not disappoint. Buffet changed a little every day with excellent choices. Breakfast is served down in their harbor front restaurant. Nice to enjoy al fresco dining and watching the harbor "wake up" while sipping coffee. Beautiful roof top terraces to enjoy the view of the old harbor, in the event your room is not one with a view

    Everything was perfect

    Beautiful hotel in a a perfect location. We were greeted upon arrival with a complementary bottle wine with crystal wine glasses. The staff were amazing! They gave us advice about what to do in the area and how to spend our time. They assisted us with setting up a car rental and recommending restaurants. The room was very clean and well supplied with lots of soaps and cream, a safe, mini fridge, hangers and extra seating. Beautiful large bath tub in our room. Nice balcony and lots of available seating in the common areas. We had breakfast included and it was amazing! You’re seated at the hotel’s restaurant which overlooks the main port and lighthouse in Chania. Food was delicious. Would definitely recommend and stay here again

    My only minor issue was that the hotel was difficult to locate - it is on a pedestrianised street and then down a side street

    Hotel is in a superb location, overlooking the Venetian harbour. There is a veranda, which we were able to use to have lunch and drinks. Breakfast is in the adjoining restaurant downstairs and has a fantastic spread of food. We were also able to ask for any additional food - extra crispy bacon for my son - and Cristina made us a special Cretan pie. The hotel staff could not have been more helpful and we cannot wait to come here again to this beautiful island and idyllic town

    Car parking is a challenge - especially when it’s busy - after the first couple of days we found spots in the Council car park which is not too far away - hotel can give directions

    Fabulous place to stay right in the old port. We were in Room 19 which is spacious with a modern fitout including bath and separate sitting area. The verandah has lovely views and we enjoyed sitting there for drinks - including the lovely complimentary bottle of wine. Everything worked well and the staff were exceptional especially Augustino who helped us when we arrived and with our trip planning and Anita at the desk who was lovely and helpful. Breakfast in the very popular restaurant was great! We also loved swimming at the local beach just around the corner.

    The hotel is an old traditional building so there are lots of stairs, and tricky getting up and down with luggage. However, assistance with luggage can be provided by the hotel. No tea or coffee facilities in the room, no bottles of water provided, but there are plenty of places nearby to get refreshments etc.

    The hotel is a charming traditional hotel located in the heart of the Old Town overlooking beautiful Chania Harbour. Breakfast is served in the hotel restaurant downstairs, so it was lovely to sit looking out at the harbour. The breakfast buffet has a good selection of continental and hot options, including local cheeses, pastries and some delicious homemade cakes and jams which must be tried! The hotel boasts a fabulous roof garden consisting of three terraces, perfect for watching the gorgeous sunrise over the harbour, or enjoy pre dinner drinks whilst soaking up the ambience of the harbour below and taking in the stunning views of Chania. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. The rooms are spacious and contemporary styled and some rooms have a terrace or balcony. I highly recommend this hotel for a stay in Chania.
