Very comfortable stay. Worth every penny. Highly recommended if staying in Chania old town.

The location, staff, cleanliness, bedroom, free drinking water. They have beach towel per request. Breakfast can be improved by adding more selections if you stay more than 2 nights, otherwise it was good as well

Cons:

Nothing

Un luogo magico che resta nel cuore
Pros:

La struttura è nel centro storico di Chania, una zona completamente pedonale.
É curatissima, con un bellissimo patio dove abbiamo consumato le colazioni servite al tavolo da personale gentilissimo. La nostra camera era molto elegante, al secondo piano e si affacciava sulla caratteristica piazzetta.
A disposizione degli ospiti una bellissima terrazza al secondo piano della struttura.
Al nostro arrivo abbiamo trovato in camera una bottiglia di vino bianco e una bottiglia d’acqua. L’acqua veniva fornita ogni giorno gratuitamente.
La colazione al tavolo prevedeva cappuccino o altre bevande calde, yogurt greco con frutta, fette di torta fatta in casa, succo d’arancia, un piatto tipico greco che variava ogni giorno e uova preparate al momento (omelette, strapazzate, ecc).
Ma il valore aggiunto di Ionas Hotel è la famiglia che lo gestisce: Christine, Michel e Sofianna. Persone squisite, gentilissime, cordiali, sempre disponibili a scambiare una parola senza essere invadenti. Traspare la passione con cui gestiscono il luogo.
La nostra ottima opinione del posto è stata confermata dal libro lasciato all’ingresso con le entusiaste dediche scritte dagli ospiti.
Il voto 10 che lasciamo é assolutamente meritatissimo. Superfluo aggiungere che consigliamo a tutti il soggiorno qui.

Ma lo consiglio assolutamente per la posizione, la gentilezza dello staff.
Pros:

Ottima camera confortevole, zona dove far colazione molto carina, posizione vicino al centro ma tranquilla la notte.

Cons:

Se proprio devo essere pignola, la colazione non è a buffet e poco varia.
