“Located right on the harbor in Chania's Old Town, this hotel offers maisonette-style rooms that are perfect for families, particularly those who value having multiple bathrooms. I especially appreciate its proximity to everything, placing you steps away from the heart of the action, though parking could be a challenge. With its central location and thoughtful amenities, it's a solid choice for experiencing Chania.”
