Lovely location so convenient for walking and dining. Staff all extremely polite and friendly. Rooms spotlessly clean and breakfast very good. Our only criticism is the lack of a lift which meant my 80 year old husband having to carry heavy cases up 2 flights of stairs as we had a late arrival and no staff on duty.

We only stayed one night. They let us store our luggage when we arrived early in the morning. The location is stellar, in the old town. But there was no parking, so we parked 15 minutes away and had to walk in with our luggage. Our room was large and clean.

Very nice stay

Very nice hotel at the very good place. Excellent breakfast, big rooms and beautiful place. Only little thing there should have been A wine bottle ready in the room for silver client and there was not and there wasn’t anyone at the reception in the evening or in the morning before we left so we could not ask for that. But all the other things were great.

Very nice and welcoming staff. The roof deck photos are misleading because it looks like it is a lounge area that serves meals or drinks, but there’s no furniture up there and they do not serve up there.

Property is located in an excellent location No elevator and we needed to walk up two flights of stairs that were steep. Standard room category are rooms with windows facing back alleys No view!! Rooms with balconies are much nicer but non available for an up grade. Very basic breakfast Bread was fresh and delicious. Rooms were clean
Front of the hotel.   I wish there were bistro tables for guests in the front    Most hotels in old town chania had them.

The women running the property were lovely, especially Maria, the breakfast Chef. Each day she surprised us with delicious tasty Greek treats! Absolutely amazing. The property was clean and comfortable. No fault of management, there is some noise at night from the adjacent restaurants. A sleep app can drown it out though! The women were all great here and welcoming.

Beautiful hotel. Breakfast was wonderful. The lady at the front desk was phenomenal. We were staying with friends in Old Town Chania for a week and there are no cars within the city. She outlined a map and it was quite a walk with our suitcases but we never got lost. Great customer service. Tell her Thankyou.
