Supermysigt
Pros:

Väldigt mysigt litet hotell i Chania . Mycket trevligt bemötande av alla som jobbade där . Cirka 15-20 minuters promenad till ”gamla Chania” och Nea Chara beach. Man har alla bekvämligheter inom räckhåll, mycket mysiga restauranger, supermarket 50 m från hotellet, bageri etc .

Hôtel magnifique
Pros:

Nous avons sejournés 7 jours dans ce petit hôtel magnifique et calme.
Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été accueillis par une charmante personne qui nous a indiqué tout les endroits, spots à visiter.
Le personnel est au petits soins et d'une gentillesse extrême.
Petit déjeuner servi à table au bord de la petite piscine propre, quel agréable moment !
La chambre est très propre, fonctionnelle.
Ménage impeccable tout les jours.
Centre ville à une vingtaine de minutes à pied principalement plat.
Parfait pour digérer après un bon repas 😀
Je recommande absolument !

Majoituspaikkana täysi kymppi. Erityiskiitosta siisteydestä ja aamupalasta, joka tarjoiltiin jokaiselle henkilökohtaisesti. Ystävällinen henkilökunta.

Pros:

Questo hotel è un gioiellino in ogni dettaglio: dalla bella piscina alle camere moderne ed arredate con molto gusto! Abbiamo soggiornato in un loft al primo piano, completo di ogni comfort: angolo cottura piccolo ma ben assortito, bagno con doccia bella e nuova, camera da letto matrimoniale al piano superiore e letto aggiuntivo in salotto. Inoltre il nostro loft era dotato di due terrazze dove poter fare colazione o avere qualche attimo di relax! Davvero tutto bellissimo

Pros:

Hotellet ligger centralt och har en pool som passar för både vuxna och barn. Vi blev väldigt väl bemötta och fick lämna våra väskor och använda hotellets faciliteter efter utcheckning i väntan på flyget som gick på kvällen. Frukosten var väl värd den extra slanten man fick betala.

Pros:

Das Hotel liegt am Eleftherios-Square gut eine halbe Stunde vom Busbahnhof entfernt. Auf Chanias Bürgersteigen ist es Mühsam einen Rollkoffer zu ziehen. Ein Taxi ist bequemer aber nicht zwingend notwendig.

consigliato vivamente
Pros:

struttura accogliente, bellissima piscina sempre aperta, ottima disponibilità del personale. manca solo un'insegna sulla strada ad indicare la struttura dalla strada. ottima struttura (tutto ristrutturato a nuovo) per una vacanza a Chania non molto lontano dal bellissimo porto veneziano.

Pros:

Hotel is very clean and nice, but the beds are very firm and the shower is very small. Despite this, I would still stay again.
