This Venetian building is located on the western side of Chania's Old Town, just a few metres from the old harbour. It blends perfectly into an attractive neighbourhood of similar restored and decorated Venetian buildings, set along rustic cobbled lanes. It is just some 800 m to the nearest beach.
This fully renovated Venetian building is tall, imposing and 600 years old. At the start of the 19th Century, the building was used as a French embassy and it was later inhabited by the great Greek politico, Eleftherios Venizelos.

Hard to find a better mix of location, helpful staff and price. We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 nights - at the top of 3 flights of stairs - in a historic hotel in the middle of old town. We are a family of 3 focused on adventure and exploration - and this was the ideal location for us. Max our western Crete experience by day while loving the energy of the old port (and World Cup matches) until the wee hours of the morning. Rooms were adequate and maintained. Towels, early breakfast to go (or stay) provided… knowledgeable and kind staff. Beds were comfy, showers were hot, A/C was cold. It was exactly what we needed as a home base. This is NOT a resort and nor does it pretend to be. It delivers exactly as promised and more.
Great stay in Chania! Service, staff, and ownership were wonderful during our stay. Great location to explore Chania and access to the port!
We stayed at this beautiful property for 5 days and we have to say that we never had such a warm and kind team looking after us like they did. A truly exceptional customer care and service all along the stay. And even after..since I forgot something that was very dear to me..they made sure to send it back to my hometown Porto, Portugal. Thank you again for everything 🙏
Had a great time very good staff very clean 👌 and very helpful 👍🏻
This hotel is a must stay when you are in Chania! The location is close to the water, the staff are the nicest people, the building is beautiful and has a really cool history. We arrived early on the ferry from Athens and went to drop our bags. We were warmly welcomed and invited to have some breakfast. They have a beautiful buffet breakfast. Everything is fresh and tasty! Our room was gorgeous! Just be aware if you have mobility issues, there isn't an elevator, but we had no issues. They provided us with a Crete liquor in our fridge as a welcome drink, which was so nice. This place was truly a gem and highly recommend it. As a woman, the hotel was safe, as was the area.
