Amazing hotel - clean and new feel, spacious.
Staff were amazing - they surprised us sparkling & cake for my husband’s birthday and when they found out I was pregnant they offered to make me special very cooked eggs for breakfast.
We had lunch by the pool and it was one of our best meals.
Great and easy to use valet service.

It is so central but so quiet because it is located in a small side street. The friendliness of the staff is really beyond of what I have experienced before (and I travel a lot). The rooms are small but very stylish and you have everything you need in there - the cleaning service is also top notch. What a great hotel experience!

Chania is a little beach town with just enough activity to have a city like buzz without all the hustle and bustle.
It's a great place to anchor yourself if you want to go explore the beaches on the other side of the island, without having to stay in smaller towns/villages.
Chania has a great mix of local restuarants, with some international flare and something for everyone- food, drinks, entertainment.
The old town itself is huge and there are so many little alleys and spots to explore that we couldn't finish this time.
The harbour boasts alot of activity and you'd be surprised to find a good mix of locals and tourists.
A MUST DO if you're in Crete!

The historic old town is magical.
The historic old town is magical. It also caters very well for people who love Greek food. The Venetian area is quaint and very attractive. Unfortunately the graffiti spoils most of the Turkish area.
Altogether it is a wonderful place to visit…I do so as often as possible.

Chania town is an architectural delight with it's predominantly Venetian architecture. Lovely selection of bars, restaurants and shops. We do wish they would ban the horse drawn carriages. We know people need to make a living but not at the expense of horses being subjected all day to the blazing heat of the sun. We were able to see all that the Old town of Chania had to offer on foot without the need to add to animal suffering! As with most Greek Islands we have visited, the coastline is very beautiful however it is spoilt with rubbish accumulated everywhere. No attempt seems to be made to clean up, both to the detriment of the wildlife and aesthetically. Surely enough is made from tourism to plow some money back into looking after such a beautiful island. Shame on the authorities for not doing more.

The old town and harbour area are both beautiful and very interesting. There are lots of tiny streets with unusual different shops, museums and plenty of Minoan relics, all easy to see. Also some excellent tavernas and coffee shops.

I was in Chania for 4 days and it wasn’t enough for me.
I was in Chania for 4 days and it wasn’t enough for me. I’d recommend At least 5. The medieval town is breathtaking, you can walk through time travel on cobblestone streets that narrow and get a half liter of wine for 5 euros each and have dinner made my locals family for 5 euro. I ate a gourmet dinner on the boardwalk with a carafe of wine dinner for 2 only 65 euros and it was the most amazing food I have ate in my life. I highly recommend.
Perfect location, right next to the heart of Old Town Chania. Walking Distance to loads of great restaurants, sights, shopping, and views. The room itself was delightful with everything you needed for a great stay. Lampros was such a great, welcoming host. He provided recommendations to a number of restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner options. If you stay here, I would highly recommend his choice of Oinopoiio for dinner, that was our best meal for sure. I would stay here again when we return to Crete.
The location of 11city rooms can't be beat, right in the middle.of the old town on a great street with excellent choices for cafes, tavernas and shops. Manoli the owner greeted us with such warmth and friendliness and showed us our rooms and how everything worked. The room was spotless and everything worked great. It's enough space for 2 and the little balcony was a nice plus. Bed was comfortable and we slept well, we had a room out the back and it was quiet as can be. 5 stars.
We loved our stay at the Kedrissos Hotel. Everywhere is immaculately clean and the staff are all delightful and we felt very welcome. We walked to the beach in 10 minutes, to Chania Old Town in 40 minutes and to the supermarket in 5 minutes. The hotel is near to a main road with bus stops but is set far enough back from the road to be peaceful. The swimming pool and restaurant are so clean and the food is very good. We will definitely stay again when we return to Crete.
This was my favorite hotel that we stayed at in Crete. it is a small hotel, which makes it feel even more special. There is a cafe/bar on the main floor. Our room had a balcony overlooking the bustling city and harbor with enough room to sit outside. We also had access to go up to the roof deck. The staff and owner were all lovely. The breakfast was delicious and even had some vegan! We got a discount at the bar as well and the drinks were excellent.
Don’t think I’ve ever stayed in such a good 4 star hotel. v traveller friendly in terms of commodities and comfort. Great location if travelling by car, but also for access to old town.
We had a lovely, spotlessly clean room with face cloths ( a rarity in 4 & even 5 star hotels). Breakfast was delicious with fresh orange juice. Staff delightful. In all, one of those rare 4 star experiences. Currently in 5 star in Heraklion which is not a patch on Samaria.
The best experience in Crete. The room was very comfortable. The location is perfect, right in the middle of old town, very close to all the attractions and few minutes away from the free public parking. Nassos, the host, made the stay even better. From his warm welcome to his everyday greetings and always providing helpful tips on where to go in town. Even his home made bread was delicious. Don't hesitate to book this place. It's really worth it!
The apartment was beautiful, just in front the sea with an incredible view. The are is so nice,full of restaurants and 10 min walk from beautiful chania old town.
Aria is super nice, always helpful. You will always find her in the shop underneath and she is great.
Crete is incredible, chania is so beautiful, and this is the perfect place to be.
We will comeback to chania and archin for sure
Our host was so wonderful! They were there for all of our questions 24/7. They booked us a tour, recommended best places to visit. They even borrowed us a parasoil :) Room was modern, new, extremely clean and well equipped. Bed was perfectly comfortable. Our stay in this hotel is one of the best experiencies in Crete, great example of Greek hospitality, I recommend it!
Everybody at the Balance Hotel is very friendly and helpful, and try their best to make you feel welcome and give you very useful information for your stay in Crete. The rooms are wonderful and very big, and also very clean. On top of that, the position is Perfect to reach the most beautiful parts of the city. I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Chania!
This is an ideal hotel for Chania town exploration, situated very close to the Chania centre. You can rent a car and explore west Crete during the day but in the evenings you will be close to the beautiful Chania city’s attractions and restaurants/tavernas. Extremely kind and friendly staff happy to give you advice and tips for hidden Crete gems/places.
Beautiful decor and clean room in old town, Chania. Super close to everything: shops, restaurants, bars, bus stop. Great amenities, relaxing vibe and friendly staff! Sotiris is super informative about Crete; where to visit and eat - they also kept our luggage safe until our departure time. Definitely recommend and would come back here again!
The rooms are located just next to the old walls into the old town. It is mostly a very quiet area, and we loved the location, since it's close to everywhere you need to be!
The room is cute, decently sized and comfortable.
Breakfast (which is done in a separate Elia hotel) is amazing! One of the very best I've had.
My stay was amazing. The view from the room patio was awesome. The attached restaurant Theodosi was great. Do yourself a favor and include breakfast with your booking. I arrived early and the staff very graciously accommodated me. Hotel is in a very quiet neighborhood on top of a hill overlooking the Sea of Crete.
Outstanding! The staff was extremely helpful, even before our arrival. They arranged our transportation from the airport to the hotel and even assisted us with car rental. The hotel is so centrally located to everything in Old Town, there was nothing we missed. I recommend this hotel 100%. Thank you!!
A unique and lovely place, beautifully designed, very clean and comfortable. In the old town, it's quite central but quiet and peaceful, which is unusual in chania in August!. The breakfast was amazing, I've never seen such a delicious spread in Crete. The people too are lovely and very helpful
The apartments are very clean and stylish! As for convenience everything is thought out to the smallest detail. And the owner’s care for you is such that you feel at home and safe. We have travelled a lot in Crete and can say these apartments are worth 5 stars! Thank you very much, Antonios!!!
I loved everything: if one day I come back, I'll stay here again. The best hotel I've stay in 10 nights in Crete. So quiet and comfortable, peaceful, decorated with taste! And cutting-edge air con, which is a must. The location if excellent if you want a relaxing stay.
Very modest hotel. It is clean and quiet, but other than that it has nothing that makes it shine. Next time in Crete I would definitely try to find another location/hotel.
