Niriis Hotel

Niriis Hotel

📍 Herakleous St., Agii Apostoli, , Kato, Daratso
★★★ 8.8 (32 reviews)

"Our stay at the Niriis Hotel was most enjoyable and the room clean and tidy. The cost is reasonable and location very handy to the local bus that takes you to Chania old town, and also the departure point for the tourist fun train. Fabulous sandy beaches are only a few minutes walk away. Owner George and the reception staff are helpful and go the extra mile if you need assistance or have any questions, on what to see and do. Tours can also be booked at the hotel. Would recommend staying here."

Hippie City Hostel

📍 Eleftheriou Venizelou 17a, Chania
8.0 (16 reviews)

"The room was what you'd expect for the price. It was a bit dirty, and I didn't feel it matched the photos. However, the staff were incredibly kind and helpful! Even though their English wasn't fluent, they used a phone app to translate and communicate with me. They even let us watch the World Cup match on the rooftop until 1 AM, which was really great."

Aris Boutique Hotel

Aris Boutique Hotel

📍 old town, Palaiokhora
★★★ 9.3 (53 reviews)

"Fantastic hotel in a village that reminds me of the the Cyclades 30 years ago. Clean well maintained rooms and attentive staff. Excellent breakfast. Easy access to hiking, biking (hotel provides trail bikes) and beaches. I hope to visit again for a longer stay. Thank you!! PS Cafe Almyrida 100 meters down the street serves one of the best cappuccinos i have ever had!"

Elia Kalamaki Hotel

Elia Kalamaki Hotel

📍 Eirinis, Galatas
★★★ 8.8 (46 reviews)

"We booked 4 nights here but due to an airline strike we ended up with only one night with two rooms for 2 adults and 3 kids. That was a pity as this hotel deserves more than only one night! Fantastic service-level, friendly personnel and a great place to be. One minute from the beach (the one next to Kalamaki restaurant is the better in our opinion) and a couple of good restaurants (Kalamaki and especially an Italian place on the corner). Close to the city of Chania with buses passing by all the time. Highly recommended! Ps: The breakfast was also good!"

Aloe Boutique Hotel & Suites - Adults Only Hotels in Chania

Aloe Boutique Hotel & Suites - Adults Only

"We recently stayed at this hotel and overall had a positive experience, particularly if your priority is relaxation and switching off completely. The hotel itself is modern in design, with excellent facilities throughout. The gym and pool areas were always spotless and very well maintained, and the reception staff were consistently professional, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay. We stayed in one of the loft rooms, which was comfortable overall and nicely designed, although it did feel a little clinical with the all-white décor. It was difficult to get enough air circulating, and it often felt quite stuffy, especially at night. The pool area was beautiful and peaceful, but for us it lacked a little atmosphere. It remained very quiet throughout the day, which will be perfect for guests looking for complete peace and relaxation, but those looking for a more social or lively holiday vibe may find it a little too subdued. I also used the spa and booked a sports massage, which unfortunately fell below expectations. It didn’t feel particularly tailored or therapeutic, and for the price, I didn’t feel it offered great value. The hotel is located in a quiet village with some very good restaurants nearby. Although, we found ourselves taking taxis into Chania when we wanted a little more atmosphere, character, and variety. The only other minor point was that one waiter came across as less approachable than the rest of the team, which stood out because otherwise the service was very good. Overall, this is a great if you’re looking for a stylish, peaceful escape. If you prefer a livelier atmosphere or more going on nearby, it’s worth keeping the location and overall vibe in mind."

Avra Imperial Hotel Hotels in Chania

Avra Imperial Hotel

"We stayed in a deluxe suite with a pool for 7 days. The room was somewhat run-down and felt quite old, unlike the photos online. Cleanliness was also subpar, likely due to the room's age. For example, there was mold in the grout between the bathroom sink and surrounding tiles, and the floor was cracked and always felt dirty. The sofa was white but very dirty, with faded colors and grime. The room's soundproofing was poor; we could hear conversations from upstairs in the bathroom. Furthermore, although the hotel advertised an all-inclusive package, they were very strict about bottled water and meal times. Each person was only allowed one bottle of water at a time, and it wasn't delivered; we had to get it ourselves from the bar. We were rushed around for meals if it was even slightly late, and the staff became quite rude. We had a small baby traveling with us, and although we requested a crib during booking and reminded the hotel via WhatsApp, there was no crib in the room. We waited over an hour after check-in before an extra crib was provided, disrupting the baby's sleep. In short, our experience with the hotel was subpar; the facilities, cleanliness, and service were not worth it."

Vignette Collection THE CHANIA HOTEL CRETE by IHG

"The location of the hotel is definitely very good and a plus point. We were greeted in a friendly manner and the lady at the bar gave us a welcome drink. The hotel looks quite high-quality at the entrance and you feel like you're in good hands. I would say it's not 5-star level, but around 3.5-4 absolutely. The room we were given unfortunately had no windows (the description said there was one). No problem for us. Our biggest criticism is that there was no door in the shower because it had been removed. So you couldn't shower properly without water spraying outside. When we told reception, they just said "we didn't know" and preferred to answer the ringing phone and leave the guest standing there. Who would know if not the hotel, so unfortunately it's far from 5-star service. We expected a small apology and that the problem would be taken care of. I think it's a real shame that you pay so much money and then get a room that doesn't meet the standard and isn't really at the level you want it to be given to guests. Luckily we only spent one day here and had previously spent the week in a real 5-star hotel. I can really only give this hotel 3/5 stars overall."

"The service is good. I asked if I would like to help us with our luggage or send me to the airport. A welcome drink is also provided. It does feel like a high-end hotel. In addition, they can do valet parking, just park the car next to the hotel and find their staff."

Sun and Sea Plus Resort Hotels in Chania

Sun and Sea Plus Resort

"After EasyJet booking is in here after the air traffic control issues on Bank holiday Monday. All I can say is Wow we got lucky. What a fabulous place. Wish we had been here for the whole holiday. The rooms are exceptionally clean, the staff have been super friendly and helpful from the moment we got here. The food has been out of this world and the staff super knowledgeable about the local wines. If you want to have a really laid back time and chance to experience and explore Cretan life here is your place. If you want entertainment and all inclusive then this is not for you. If you want exceptional food and fantastic knowledgeable staff who can direct you to local wineries and food, this is for you. It’s so laid back. Having found this place we are already looking to book for next year. What a fantastic find. Thank you to all the lovely staff here who have made what was an incredibly stressful situation an amazing extension to our holiday. We cannot praise them all enough. Thank you"

Sirios Village Hotel & Bungalows - All Inclusive Hotels in Chania

Sirios Village Hotel & Bungalows - All Inclusive

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and truly enjoyed every moment of our vacation. We chose a room with a private pool, and it was definitely worth it. The room was newly renovated, modern, spacious, beautifully designed, and fully equipped with everything we needed. The cleanliness throughout the hotel was outstanding, and every member of the staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always smiling. We stayed for a week, and the all-inclusive program offered a great variety of food, drinks, and entertainment, making our stay enjoyable throughout. There was always something to choose from, and the quality of the food was excellent. One of our favorite parts was the live cooking. The freshly made crêpes were delicious, while the gyros and pizzas prepared in front of us were fantastic. And of course, we couldn’t resist the soft-serve ice cream! A big thank you to the entire team for their excellent hospitality and outstanding service. They made our stay truly special. We would definitely choose this hotel again in the future and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable all-inclusive holiday."

Hyperion City Hotel & Spa ★★★★
"The room was clean and tidy, and the facilities were very new. Upon check-in, we received a free drink voucher, one per person. The room had a scenic balcony, which was a great experience. (Note: Only rooms on the 5th and 6th floors have the best balcony views!) All drinks in the minibar were complimentary for the first round. The hotel has a paid underground parking garage for 10 euros a day. You can also park on the street nearby, but considering safety and the difficulty of finding a space, we opted for the hotel parking. The garage has a direct elevator to the hotel, which is very convenient. You need to ring a doorbell to contact the front desk for entry and exit, ensuring good security. Breakfast hours are from 7:30 AM to 10:30 AM. The breakfast selection was quite varied, and the quality was average."

Hippie City Hostel ★
"Let me begin. We bought enough beds for six of our friends but hostel world was not linked to the hippie hostel website for some reason so there were many complications there. The staff at the reception were not there when we arrived for check in, or for hours after that so we had to wait around. Called the numbers but no answer. The people in the 12 bed room were really nice though- so that made it better, but the receptionist made my friend strip the dirty beds from the people before so we could settle in. Bathrooms are genuinely horrible like actually the worst thing ever. I understand it is a budget hostel but this is awful. Roof is nice though"

Elia Kalamaki Hotel ★★★
"Excellent stay! The staff here are absolutely fantastic. Nothing is a problem and they will go above and beyond to make sure your stay is comfortable and easy. Eleni and Vicky on reception are amazing girls, very friendly and kind and always happy to help. Klio the housekeeper was also very helpful and Yanna the cook was so funny and clearly loved her job. The pool is a little small but the hotel was quiet so we pretty much had the place to ourselves. Booked this hotel due to the very convenient free parking and some great restaurants nearby. Well done to the staff, you are all amazing!"

Perla Beach ★★★
"From our early arrival to our late departure everything about the Perla Beach was fabulous. We stayed for 9 nights in a poolside studio room. It was a very good size with a small but sufficient kitchen area, shower room, dining area and a very large, comfortable double bed. There was a good sized terrace overlooking the pool with table and chairs. The room was spotless, the lovely cleaning ladies came in daily to change towels (if required), make the bed, removed trash and mopped throughout. The bed was changed every 3 days. The lovely guy in reception was always very helpful and courteous, nothing was too much trouble for him, lovely customer service which was very much appreciated. The pool is amazing and very well maintained. Lots of sun beds available and lots of shade if required, the gardens are kept neat and tidy too. The location of the Perla Beach is perfect, 2 minute stroll to the beautiful beach and loads of lovely restaurants close by. Plenty of shops and little supermarkets within walking distance. No noise from the main road either. The bus stops are also close by which is very handy of you want to go to Chnia town (well worth visiting) I have no hesitation in recommending the Perla Beach and will hopefully be back next year"

Camping Chania ★★
"Just had an 11 night stay here and had a lovely time. All the people that work here are very friendly. Great restaurant and good prices. Pool is really nice. The beach is a couple of mins walk away and there are 3 other beaches 8 to 10 mins away. Rooms are basic but clean, plenty of loo roll and clean towels. The air con didn't work properly but was fixed the same day when we reported it. Shout out Nusa the cleaner who took care of us, the very hardworking Tanya who runs the shop and the restaurant and Alex on the bar, everyone was so nice and really made our stay great."

Kavos Hotel & Suites ★★★★
"We (family of four) stayed in a sea view maisonette for a week in early August. This hotel is really really special - clean, modern (yet very comfortable) accommodation (amazing shower!) and stunning communal areas. The pool is wonderful and there is plenty of space for everyone. Access to the sea is easy despite the lack of beach. Restaurant is exceptional - the food is simple yet delicious at lunch time and much more adventurous and equally delicious at dinner time. Breakfast is also great with lots of choice and new items every day. Car hire with the room was brilliant and made the stay such good value. We enjoyed exploring Chania and Stavros and had some lovely meals out. We definitely hope to be back - so pleased we found you!"
