If you want to sleep, go elsewhere. The windows are thin and the restaurant guests (across the street) will keep you up until 1:30am. At least the hotel could invest in better windows.

Upea hotelli keskellä Hanian vanhaa kaupunkia

Mahtava paikka keskellä Hanian vanhaa kaupunkia, mutta kuitenkin rauhassa. Huoneet olivat siistejä ja ne siivottiin päivittäin. Huoneista löytyi kaikki tarvittavat shampoot, hoitoaineet ja suihkusaippuat pesetymiseen ja niitä tuotiin myös päivittäin aina lisää. Aamupalaa hotellilla ei ollut, mutta sellainenkin kuulema tulossa mahdollisesti ensi vuonna. Ravintoiloista ym. lähellä olevista paikoista kuului hieman melua, mutta sekin hiljeni aina puolen yön tienoilla. Erityisesti kiitosta mukavalle henkilökunnolla ja loistavalle siivoojalle.

Very efficient and professional people

Nikos and Galyna are at the reception desk and really very professional and efficient. If you look for a very convenient hotel at a reasonable price then it's the best choice to do. You will be very close to everything at the center of the old town. And again with such personnel you will be not only hosted but getting lots of informations and advises for good restaurants as well!!!

Dejligt hotel, men vi manglede køkkenfaciliteter.

Dejligt hotel, men vi manglede køkkenfaciliteter. Førhen var der en kogeplade, en kasserolle og et lille køkkenbord. Hvis der opsættes skab eller hylder ovenover køleskabet kan det give plads til kogepladen, en kasserolle og et lille køkkenbord på køleskabet. Vi manglede også en elevator. Især fordi trappen er stejl og uden gelænder, hvilket især er en udfordring, når bagage/kufferter skal bæres op og ned. Personalet er MEGET servicemindede og rengøringen er i top.

beautiful charm in Old Town

Vranas Studios was a very pleasant host over 5 nights in Chania. The very friendly staff of this family-run business made us feel very comfortable over our entire stay. Clean rooms, delicious breakfasts and friendly staff. The only downside is the proximity to the bell tower at the adjacent church, which rings at very random hours.
