Lovely little basic hotel right on the waterfront
Lovely little basic hotel right on the waterfront. Immaculate good sized rooms, comfortable firm beds, comfortable table and chairs on balcony. Brollies for beach and balcony. Hot water, WiFi, TV all excellent. 10-15mi s walk to old Town and plenty of good restaurants and bars on the doorstep. Will definitely be back.

Despite being a small hotel it was ideal for us. We needed a clean room close to the sea and available parking. For parking you need to ask the front desk to provide the address, a 5min walk from the hotel

Clean and friendly seafront hotel
It's only a 2 star hotel so has basic facilities, however it was recently refurbished, kept immaculately clean, working air conditioning and there was always staff at the desk to help. The location is excellent - only across the road from the beach and the hotel offers sunbeds on the beach at a discount for hotel residents. There are many good restaurants along the sea front. You can walk to the old town in 20 minutes. The cafe/bar attached to the hotel is lovely and popular with locals and tourists alike - didn't hear any noise from it in the room either. Breakfast is basic but good - just make sure to get there in time as they seem to close up early if no-one is there. We organised our airport transfer through the hotel and they showed up on time and cost the same as if we'd sourced our own taxi.

The Hotel is right on the Nea Chora beach strip with a fantastic view and a decent restaurant on the front of the hotel where you can have a well priced breakfast, lunch or dinner. 8 Euro for all you can eat breakfast with many options. Beachside restaurants up and down the street offering delicious seafood and Greek dishes or a take a 15-20 min walk along the coastline to the beautiful old port town with its boundless restaurants and shops along the pedestrian walkways. If you have a car you will have to park it in a lot a few blocks away but they do have parking available. Overall good value for money and had an excellent stay.

The hotel staff were lovely… in particular the cleaning staff and front desk ladies! If we needed anything they were right there! The room itself was a little outdated and so felt rather dingy, in particular the bathroom. The bed was comfortable and it was nice to have a balcony with ocean view. Screen on the door would be great so to keep the fresh air in and out without the mosquitoes. Would also be great to have no smoking rooms for those of us who are sensitive to cigarette smoke. Overall and great stay!

I booked 2 nights in this hotel as my friend visited me for a long weekend and we wanted to spend a couple of days in Chania. I'd previously stayed at this hotel when my sister visited me in May. I had a twin bed room overlooking the beach and, as the price was so reasonable, was expecting it to be acceptable, but I was pleasantly surprised by the whole experience. The hotel was spotlessly clean throughout, the room was comfortable, well-equipped (fridge, TV, large bathroom with a shower and toiletries), towels and bed linens were extremely clean, with quilts available if wanted. The service was second to none - absolutely excellent at all times. Before walking into the city, asked for a kettle which was instantly given to us, so we could have a cuppa before bed (we'd taken some tea bags with us) and were able to make a cuppa whenever we wanted. The downstairs bar serves food and snacks at a very reasonable rate which can be ordered from the terrace which overlooks the beach. The hotel location is perfect - walk across the road and you're on the sand. It's just a ten minute walk to Chania harbour with all its shops, bars and tavernas. The hotel is just far away to be quiet enough to get a good night's sleep, dropping off as you listen to the waves on the shore. The hotel was excellent and all of the staff really couldn't have been friendlier or more helpful. I'll definitely use this hotel again in future and would thoroughly recommend it to others.

I would recommend this hotel - the whole place was freshly painted and spotlessly clean - rooms, corridors, lobby and restaurant. The staff were excellent at all times, extremely helpful, polite and friendly. Price was surprisingly affordable for a beachfront location in such a stunning city. Easy walking distance to the tourist harbour area of Chania, yet safe and quiet at night. Anybody planning a trip to Chania, I would urge you to use this hotel - I'll be using it again in future as I had such a great experience.
