"Had a wonderful stay at Ambassador Residence Hotel in Chania! The location is fantastic — walking distance to the Old Venetian Harbor and all the charm of the Old Town, yet quiet enough for a peaceful night’s sleep. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. Staff were warm and welcoming, happy to share local tips for exploring the area. A great base for discovering Chania — highly recommend for anyone wanting an authentic stay close to the historic center!"

Top Old Town Chania Hotel Reviews

Palazzo di Pietro

10/10 Excellent

"Was a amazing place Loved the history and the deco Would stay again"

Domus Renier Boutique Hotel, Member of Domus Elegance Collection

10/10 Excellent

"A quirky little hotel in the middle of old town Chania. We had an enormous two bedroom master suite with 2 bedrooms and a great outdoor bar area where we could sit and watch life go by in the old harbour and out to sea. The place was very clean and the staff very helpful - bringing our luggage from the taxi to the hotel and to the taxi at the end of the stay (the hotel cannot be reached directly by taxi. Breakfast was again quite quirky with all sorts of little goodies and a healthy cooked breakfast. The lighting was a bit complicated in the room and it was quite dark in the bedrooms but otherwise a perfect stay. We would highly recommend this place."

Nostos Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hotel is querky and full of character all about the location in the heart of the old town surrounded by shops,bars and restaurants. You need to be able to carry your luggage as the taxi can only drop you outside the old town area and you have to walk to the hotel and with no lift again you need to carry your luggage up the stairs. But if you want to go on holiday and be in the heart of a Greek old town we would really recommend this lovely hotel. Also the hotel is run by a local family that have owned it for a long time and go out of the way to ensure you have a nice holiday."

Monastery Estate Venetian Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"The monastery Estates was a beautiful boutique hotel in a wonderful location. The whole experience felt like I stepped back in time. The one concern I had was there’s apparently assigned tables for breakfast, make sure you ask where yours is otherwise you may get yelled at."
