“This hotel is fantastic. Its in a great location, just 10 minutes walk from the beautiful Old Town of Chania, or 10 minutes to the beaches at Nea Chora. The hotel itself is clean and comfortable. The steam room feature in the shower was a lovely addition, also enjoyed the Smart TV with Netflix, the tea and coffee station, and the pool was relaxed and quiet. The design and decor of the room was so thoughtfully done and little features like the pull down wardrobe made great use of the space. The staff couldn't be nicer, they were so friendly and welcoming and really made this an unforgettable and relaxing stay.”
