The hotel itself is lovely and has beautiful amenities. The transport every 30 minutes to downtown Chania is a wonderful add-on, and the front desk people were all professional and had amazing service. My partner stayed here last year and this year again, and likely we will be staying next year

Room was spotlessly clean, the large sea view balcony was our favourite part! The pool was gorgeous and we loved being able to place orders to be delivered poolside. The breakfast was top of the line with unlimited options, both hot and cold, and it was served on the rooftop offering outstanding views. Dinner at the restaurant, The Hill, was outstanding. The shuttle service to Old Town was extremely efficient and reliable. I highly recommend this hotel! The only con was the teeny shower & would have loved some drawer space to be able to unpack.

The service was really unfriendly, with exception of 3 people. Getting room service was always an issue because of comprehension and if we did want to approach them their attitude just put us off. Rolling eyes and sighs whilst customers made requests at breakfast was absolutely shocking. I ordered a salmon salad and whilst it was lovely and Fresh there was a bit of plastic in the food.

Stunning hotel on top of hill. Definitely not walking distance to Old Chania but they have a shuttle that drops to and from which is great! Doesn't have an airport shuttle but taxi was about 25 euros. Stunning room, amazing balcony with views. I could have hung out there all night.

Staff was super friendly and helpful! We loved the free shuttle service to the city as well. We had a very early check out and they were kind enough to prepare breakfast kits for us and arrange a transfer to the ferry that morning. Honestly the view we had from the hotel was worth the money too! Would stay here again

We wanted a hotel a short distance from the airport but still close enough to enjoy the city if we wanted to venture out. We did not leave the property that night. The restaurant was amazing along with its beautiful view. The room was quiet and clean with great amenities. We definitely will be staying here again but longer to have time to enjoy the pool as well.
