The location was great and nearby several shops. Unfortunately, some of the staff were impatient and would respond to basic questions with a passive aggressive attitude.

Great apartment right in the heart of the harbour and old town. Lovely views of the harbour and beyond. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Overall a great choice. One thing to think about is to add a full length mirror in the rooms

Old town Chania

Check in at alternate location about 200m away was a little confusing but room was excellent. Loft bedroom area, 2 bathrooms. Sofa bed, historic building. Not sure how they manage breakfast as booked room only and no facilities in this particular building. Overall a great little place right in the heart of old Chania.

Convenient for Old Town, shopping, eating out, beach. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Lovely breakfast (in another small hotel less than 5 mins walk away). We had rooms facing the residential street with small balcony (very nice) and there was also a shared terrace overlooking the Venetian Port, that we made good use of. Thank you Elia staff x

This property is within walking distance to shopping, dining and beaches. The view from the balcony is aamazing. Room is spacious and amenities are new and clean. The only inconvenience there is no dedicated parking to this hotel & unfortunately street parking close by is very challenging.

Hôtel looks great and is very clean with helpful staff. However, the bed was very uncomfortable. I didn’t sleep well, the bed was very hard, I woke up everyday with pain in my body from sleeping in such a hard mattress. Also, instead of having a queen bed, they put 2 twin bed next to each other with is very inconvenient. Beds can move a little when we move during sleep, then there is a hole in the middle and stuff can fall in there it’s just really inconvenient for what they call a 5 star hotel

This place is a gem

I travelled with a friend and we stayed in the Deluxe Sea View room. It was clean and comfortable and we utilized both floors so that we would have our own bedrooms and bathrooms. The balcony is an amazing perk and we spent a lot of our downtime in between daytime excursions and dinner sipping wine on the balcony and just looking out on the beautiful harbour. Housekeeping was done every morning and our room was always tidy and fresh. We were able to find parking on the street or very close by with no issues. I would definitely choose this hotel again for a future visit. Its quite and quaint but it felt like home. The area is very safe and we were comfortable strolling out in the early hours or late in the evening.
