A nice and very professional woman who worked the check in and front desk. Delicious breakfast with a view. Great location and still nice and quiet at night in our room.

Cons:

Our room was nice and large but the bed was upstairs in a loft area. Stairs of the entry looked right in our windows

An absolute gem in Chania – we fell in love with this place!
Pros:

If you are looking for a magical stay in Chania, look no further. This tiny boutique hotel sits right in the heart of the old town, just a stone's throw from the harbor. Everything—from the hidden little alleys to the best local spots—is within easy walking distance.
The hotel only has five rooms, and each one has its own unique personality. The moment you walk through the doors and into the grand entrance hall, it honestly feels like stepping back in time. It's beautiful. All the rooms branch off from this space, and it’s also where breakfast is served. We stayed in the Honeymoon Suite, which came with a stunning sea view and our own private roof terrace.

The hospitality here is next-level. We were greeted warmly by the owner right away. Since we arrived super early in the morning, they let us drop off our bags immediately so we could head out and start exploring the city without dragging our luggage along.

Breakfast each morning was lovely, served right at the table with a different freshly cooked egg dish every day. Veronika, who took care of breakfast, is an absolute treasure. She was so incredibly sweet and gave us some wonderful tips for day trips. On our last day, we rented a car because we were road-tripping down to the south. Parking in the old town can be a complete nightmare, but Veronika shared a brilliant insider secret on where to park, which saved us so much stress.

We can’t recommend this gorgeous, exquisite hotel enough. We had the best time and will definitely be back!

Great small and friendly hotel in heart of old town.
Pros:

Amazing location in heart of old town, with superb views of harbour. Small, friendly and welcoming hotel. Great breakfasts served by Veronika, who was also readily available and happy to provide general assistance and support. A great 1st experience of Chania!

Cons:

Bedroom had no balcony as was located in back of building. However, this was compensated through having use of balcony in breakfast room. Next time we would request room with a balcony.

Außergewöhnliches kleines stilvolles Hotel.
Pros:

Ein wunderbares stilvolles Hotel. Man fühlt sich sofort willkommen und sehr wohl.

Wir können es uneingeschränkt empfehlen.
