A brand new hotel, very nicely located in a calm area, but close to the city. Contemporary designed hotel with luxury feel and attention to details. The entry hall and the stairs are a true masterpiece. The rooms are clean, comfortable, well organized and fully equipped. Staff was very professional and helpful, yet friendly. We were allowed to check in earlier and were provided complimentary free breakfast. Liana, was extremely helpful throughout our stay. She helped us to plan the visits around and gave us great suggestions. Furthermore, she invited us to the Easter party lunch organized by the hotel with traditional music and tasty food. Breakfast is buffet style, everything is freshly made and very well presented. Finally, food was very delicious. The garage is free , which is a bonus. I would definitely choose to stayhere again whenever I visit Crete.

I came to Chania for my birthday, and it was the best ever birthday. The staffs were super friendly and helpful, they elevate the overall experience. The breakfast was amazing with lots of options, and the restaurant also had the best steak I've had in a long time. The view from the room was stunning with an amazing view of the city and sea. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an amazing stay. I'll definitely be back.

Beautiful hotel. The pool was quite big! And the pool área is really nice to chill in. Our room was clean, well equiped and beautiful. Staff went above and beyond to help us with our every need. You will have a superb view while eating breakfast which is homemade. Parking in the área can be difficult but old town is just 10 minutes down the street and when you want to go back you can catch a taxi for 5 euro which we did every night. Stay here as many nights as you can!!!

Effie who worked in reception was exceptional. There was supposed to be a ferry strike and we were unsure if we could go to Santorini. She helped us navigate the Greek ferry and port system. There was a pool a beautiful delicious restaurant. There is also a spa but that is not my thing. It was an exceptional stay and so reasonable.

Crete Highlights

Chania Old Town and Harbor

With its famous Venetian Harbor and colorful market, the winding alleyways of Chania let you wander through architectural history.

Phaestos

Once a major center of the Minoan Civilization, Phaestos is where the famous Phaestos Disc was discovered.

Elafonnisi Beach

Endless beaches with unique pink sand, and out in the crystal-clear waters is the islet of Elafonissi.

Samaria Gorge

Extending from the village of Omalos right down to the Mediterranean, this gorge is renowned for wildlife and hiking.

Preveli Beach

A breathtaking sight, at Preveli Beach you can experience natural spa pools.

Falassarna Beach

Falassarna's half a mile of fine sand and turquoise waters are just waiting to be enjoyed.

Spinalonga Island

Once a Venetian fortress, Spinalonga Island was used as a leper colony during the first half of the 20th century.

Arkadi Monastery

The 16th-century Arkadi Monastery is a stunning piece of Renaissance architecture and symbol of resistance against the Ottomans.

Rethymno Venetian Harbor and Fortress

Walking around the narrow streets, from the Venetian Harbor to the well-preserved Fortezza Castle, definitely makes Rethymno worth a visit.

Knossos Palace

Knossos was the ancient center of the Minoan Civilization. Come and visit its colorful frescoes and maze of buildings.

FAQs about hotels in Crete

Centuries of History, Days of Sunshine

The largest Greek island, mountainous Crete has stunning beaches, plenty of history and as much or little nightlife as you want. Party town Malia has many bars, clubs and restaurants on its Strip.

Along the coast is the capital Heraklion, a bustling city home to many Crete hotels on the beach, and a Venetian castle guarding its port. Its archaeological museum includes finds from the island’s Minoan era, while just inland are the Roman remains of Knossos.

Also boasting a Venetian castle is Rethymnon, a popular resort with a good number of Crete hotels with private pools on Booking.com. Loggerhead turtles nest in season on the sandy beaches here and at Chania, an important port with an attractive waterfront set against the backdrop of mountains.

On the other side of the island is Aghios Nikolaos, a small fishing town with a picturesque harbour. Just north is Elounda, a popular family resort, and offshore is Spinaloga island, inspiration behind the book ‘The Island’. Matala in the south has a bohemian vibe and intriguing cliff dwellings, while Paleokastro in the east borders Europe’s largest palm forest at Vai.

We could go on and on about magnificent Crete beaches, but whichever resort you choose, you can be almost guaranteed fantastic food and a good helping of sunshine.

This hotel is simply marvellous! The pool is huge and spotless and looks over all of Chania. The staff are incredibly friendly and do their absolute best to ensure your stay is memorable, especially Nicolas. The restaurant has good food and one of the best sunset views you will experience. The rooms are well-equipped, clean, and very functional. I recommend getting a room with a view, as the sunsets are breathtaking. There is a free shuttle to the old town, which was great, as parking can be tricky down there. The breakfast is excellent, with a wide variety of foods for all tastes.

It was a wonderful stay in Iolida beach, it was so comfortable to be there. There are no luxury design or a lot of events, but it was so cozy, clean and the food was amazing! It was the most delicious all inclusive in my whole live. Stuff was super friendly, we felt like we were at home there. The beach was clean, sea was amazing and we could find sun beds at every time of the day. Our room was a bit far from the beach in second part of the hotel, but we had a wonderful sea view and it was super quiet there

The host was accommodating and recommended some of the best restaurants in Crete. The view of the castle was spectacular and the room was very comfortable, not huge but big enough. It was very easy to walk around and explore the area. It is easy to escape the tourist area because it’s not very big, making it a very authentic visit of culture and food.

We were sadly only here for a quick overnight stay. But during our week in Crete - where we travelled to Chania, Heraklion, and Rethymno - Rethymno was by some margin my favourite destination. Where Chania's historic centre felt as if it had been totally given over to tourism, Rethymno felt more like a substantial town with plenty to explore.

Difficult to judge because we came early in the season when there was a cold wind blowing and not all the places were open. However, there didn't seem to be many places to eat [not a problem for us as there was one excellent place, though would be a problem peak season] . There were a number of apparently abandoned and ill-maintained buildings, which made the place appear less attractive.

The perfect place for peaceful vacation. The city itself is nice but not something extraordinary, but you get the best food in Greece alongside the best beaches in the World!

For those who want a quiet get-away and yet close shopping, Kissamos is hard to beat. Close to the port for Balos-Gramvousa excursions and secluded for a wonderful relaxed time with your loved one. Gramvousa Restaurant is a must, a short drive to a memorable dining experience. Loved snorkeling and fish sightings around rocky areas. Pictures cannot capture the panoramic breath-taking setting.

From Souda, the bus is ~10 minutes to Chania for 1.60€ only. No need for rental car nor searching for parking -- just take bus. Use rental car for pleasure scenic routes into mountains especially Milo's Restaurant. But only during sunlight, not at night!! The trip there is well worthwhile for the food & service, the trip itself is adventurous, scenic & breathtaking because of height.
