Located in the heart of Chania, within 1476 feet from the Venetian harbor, the modern Samaria Hotel is ideally located just above the main square, next to the central bus station.

Good amenities, excellent service, and well outfitted rooms located steps from old town.
We stayed here our last night in Crete to catch our flight the following morning. We had to return our rental car at 10 AM and the hotel was very accommodating by allowing us with an early check in time. Nice large lobby, a medium sized pool tucked away nicely in the back, and a great buffet breakfast with a large selection.
Our room was lovely!! Very luxe finishings, large bathroom, couch, and desk area.
Would definitely stay here again.
Pro tip: if you are a light sleeper request a room facing the inner courtyard.
In one of the most beautiful cities of Crete, Chania, you can find Falassarna Hotel 656 feet from the beach of Nea Chora, 10 minutes from the venetian harbor and 15 minutes from the center of Chania.

Location was great, close to the beach and next to many restaurants, walking distance from Chania. on-site parking. Rooms have balcony. Friendly staff.
The family-run Danaos offers a friendly and relaxed base in the heart of Chania, just a short walk from Chania’s Venetian harbor and right next to the beautiful sandy beach of Nea Chora.

The room was clean. The beach in front of the hotel was nice. The parking lot was convenient. We walked from the hotel along the Waterfront to the Old Town.
Decorated with antique furniture, Casa Leone overlooks the charming Venetian Harbor and the 15th-century Faros Light House in Chania.

Absolutely beautiful historic buildings. Our room was spacious and characterful with a balcony and sea view. The staff were very friendly. The breakfast was lovely and the breakfast room is stunning with a fabulous balcony overlooking the old port.
Ionas Hotel is a carefully restored historical home, located in the heart of the Old Town of Chania. Ionas is a perfect base for guests wishing to explore authentic Chania.

It was a very cozy atmosphere, beautiful well-kept area, close to the beach and several restaurants with delicious Mediterranean food. A very beautiful pool, but during my stay (second half of September) it was under renovation. The breakfast at the hotel was delicious and the staff was always friendly and made you feel at home.

We arrived late at 01h00. Efi and Spiros waited up for us and met us with big smiles and a friendly welcome. They had stocked the fridge so we would have food for breakfast and added a few extras for the week. They were helpful, discreet and available when we needed them through our our stay. The apartment is stunning with a huge terrace and a breathtaking view. I can heartily recommend Kalathas sunset villa!! We would love to go back!!!

road to the beach very busy, a lot of cars, lack of the pavement, the beach is really great but not many restaurants, only one shop in the area, no ATM , if you don't have a car to go to the centre of Kalathas there are not many things to choose from. There is bus going every 2 hours going to Chania and Stavros which helps, if you want just to relax the location is good but not for people who would like to party

Some lovely beaches close by ( Kalathas and Tersanas) but you will need a car as the roads are not pleasant to walk- busy with no pavements. There is a bus service but you will need to check the timetables, as they're not that frequent. Chania is an interesting place with lots of history and character. We took the longer boat trip and did some snorkelling- it was great.

Kalathas beach is beautiful.
Kalathas beach is beautiful. The sea is shallow and mostly calm. There is a canteen on the beach which offers lunch snacks and cold drinks, ice creams etc. Excellent, friendly service. Paid sun beds with umbrellas are available.
The main road down to the beach is NOT pedestrian friendly. I would strongly recommend hiring a car if you stay further up from the beach.

Perfect if you need to be close to the airport, lovely coastline and super friendly locals. Planes do go overhead, so if you don’t fancy this for a two week holiday, I suggest going up to Stavros where this wasn’t an issue the night I stayed
The location and the sunset st the pool are amazing. And the staff and owner of the hotel are absolutely incredible. Great with a big smile and a tour of the location. As well as provided all the necessary information to access the city and tours. Definitely going to come here in the future. 5-star service and great apartments with unique designs. The apartment was spacious with a modern design. Was very luck to find this gem. You can't go wrong reserving here because even the guests are amazing. It's a vibe.
The room had an amazing view. This was probably the cleanest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The pool area was cleaned regularly and most hotels forget about this area. someone mentioned about aircraft overhead but we found it interesting. The restaurant chef was also happy to cook our favourite dishes off the menu thanks Mike much appreciated. Also as the hotel was small we got to know staff by their names, Maria Asper Tonia and Soultana were always smiling and helpful thanks for an amazing stay.
We had a great time staying at this appartment. It has it's own, big parking place which came in handy for our rented car. It is located a bit from the main road so we had our piece and privacy. It is also equipped with everything you might need: washing machine, stove, coffee machine, microwave,... Kalathas beach is also really close. The host was very kind and gave us a lot of directions for other beaches and destinations. I highly recomend the appartment.
The apartments located in a easily reachable spot - 15 minutes both from Chania and the airport. You can make it your base of operations and travel freely around the eastern part of Crete.
The price/quality level of this place is one of the best you can get on Crete and Yiannis, the owner, will make your experience perfect being ready to suggest places to see and local tips and tricks. Rooms are clean and tidy.
I particularly liked the friendliness of the staff and the cleanliness of the property. The staff is very accommodating and super nice. The view and the pool are great and you are only minutes away of a lovely beach. It's still close to Chania but you'll definitely need a car to wonder around (and there are so many beautiful places to see in Crete)
The price is also very good, so I highly recommend!
Staff was wonderful, everyone was helpful,kind and caring. The hotel has its own swimming pool which is nice if you want to take a fast cool down. The hotels restaurant is always open so you can eat any time you want also the food is great there and I think it's not even that expensive. We had mountain view room and it was nice I can imagine the sea view one is breathtaking.
The location was excellent, the building was the first one to the road taking you to the Kalathas beach, where we spent most of our days bathing. There is also a small path that serves as a shortcut to the beach. The owner was very nice and helpful.
Yiannis was wonderful person,nice ,helpful,real gentleman. Everything was alright except wifi and I think because ,that was so many guest was in hotel. I highly recommended this hotel for every Danish or another europian nationality.
The hotel exceeded our expectations. It was very large and clean. We had two outdoor tables and chairs on our own balcony, our own drying rack, a separate bedroom from the kids, two air conditioners, a kitchen with all utensils, etc.
Amazing hosts, modern and tidy hotel rooms with new kitchen appliances, spacious apartments, spotlessly clean, plenty of extras you can use such as rooftop and pool, good breakfast, only 10 minutes away from the beach!
This is an old hotel close to the sea. There are free shaded parking places. The general vibe is nice, but we could not enjoy it because our room was very dirty, except for the bed which was clean and comfy.
It's a very basic no thrills hotel, but in the best possible way. Everything works, it's super clean, shower is excellent. Clean towls everyday, sheets soft, bed was great.... And the view, just amazing.
We loved everything about this hotel. Amazing pool and spectacular views, lovely and very clean room, and best of all, the hosts were so kind and friendly. Will be recommending to friends and family.
The staff were so kind and helpful, and the breakfast was lovely. The apartment was huge (compared to a hotel room) and had everything we needed. The pool was simple yet very relaxing and nice.
the location is near the venue of the wedding I was attending, reasonably close to Kalathas beach ( 700 m) and supermarket.
service was good , the garden and the pool are beautiful.
Thank you for the lovely stay, it was a great Appartment. Excellent air con and very close to a supermarket to make dinner. Very close to kalathas beach too!
