- sibylle (9/5): -
- Heike (9/5): - Wir waren schon das zweite Mal hier zu Gast. Ein nettes kleines Hotel, sehr sauber und mit schöner Ausstattung. Dass das Frühstück ein paar Häuser weiter stattfindet, stört uns gar nicht. Das Personal dort und an der Rezeption ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Es gab keine Probleme.

- Silke (10/5): -
- Liane (10/5): Es waren 2 unvergessliche Übernachtungen - Alles, sehr schön gestaltet, ich hatte keine Vorstellung davon, wie so ein uraltes Haus als modernes Hotel aussehen sollte. Wunderschön. Da gab es nichts
- CARL (10/5): Super Clean - Just 1 min walk from Sea front & Shops - Super Comfy Bed & a Fabulous Breakfast - Our 5th Stay in this super Quaint stylish hotel that's perfectly located just off the main busy main seafront walkway and yet within one mins walk from the harbour front and all the shops you'd ever need to enjoy. The rooms are super clean and a bed so comfy to provide you the best nights sleep ever! What makes this complete for us is the wonderful buffet style breakfast that's included - Perfect! Everything is perfect for us
- Rubén (8/5): - La ubicación era perfecta y las vistas eran preciosas. La relación calidad-precio fue baja.
Habitaciones pequeñas.
Baño muy pequeño con un olor extraño y con una puerta que se cierra automáticamente, atrapando la humedad.
Poco sostenible: Cambian las toallas todos los días, y el desayuno es un buffet libre.
- Μαρια (10/5): -
- Annette (10/5): Brilliant stay, lovely holiday - It was very convenient for the old port of Chania, and old town shops Everything was good
- Andrew (9/5): -
- Stephen (10/5): Amazing destination, amazing hotel and wonderful staff! - The breakfast area was sparkling clean and the selection was wonderful! The staff in the breakfast area were terrific in both their pride and care in the presentation and also in their interaction with the guests. Absolutely nothing!
- hong bee (10/5): -
- Christiane (10/5): Warm welcoming and always ready to help - Staff waas very helpful, friendly and accomodating. I had issues with noise and Anthonis went above my expectations and was able to change location for another Elia hotel traht was quiet and luxurious. Excellent breakfast and friendly staff Location fo the hotel, noisy because of closeness to the street and also not accessible by car. But it has nothing to do witjh the service at the property.
- PARASKEVI (10/5): - Εξαιρετική φιλοξενία και προσωπικό!
Διακόσμηση υπέροχη
Ωραίο πρωινό Check out time είναι λίγο νωρίς

- Dominique (9/5): - Canapé très confortable
Café apprécié sur le rooftop
Petit déjeuner très varié Nous avons tout apprécié !
Si nous pouvons nous permettre quelques remarques (cela n'enlève rien à la qualité globale perçue) :
Manque peut-être une table de salon
Une lampe de chevet côté gauche
Et un dispositif pour que la salle d'eau sèche un peu plus pendant la nuit
- Maureen (9/5): - The view, the location, the atmosphere , the helpful staff We were driving and I would have liked to know that we couldn’t drive to the hotel ie that we had to park further away and walk.
- Michele (6/5): -
- Damien (9/5): -
- Kathleen (8/5): - Breakfast was fabulous. I had room 7 with balcony view, only 8 rooms on property. Be aware that Old Town Chania is pedestrian only, so must carry your own luggage for about 10 minutes on cobblestones. There is no elevator, upon checkin there is staff to carry luggage upstairs, but no one to assist upon checkout.
- Anthony (10/5): -
- Denis (9/5): Top locatie en stijlvolle kamer - Super locatie en mooie verzorgde kamer en prachtig uitzicht
- Thad (10/5): - Cool boutique hotel. Our rooms overlooked the water and was close to lots of activities. Hotel was friendly, helpful, and well managed.
- Michael (8/5): - Air conditioning great!
- Lucinda (10/5): - The room was exceptional. The views were amazing. Unfortunately the staff let us down We woke on the first morning to no power in our room. When we enquired downstairs, the staff member informed us it was the whole hotel but didn't help us with any more information on how long it may be or where to charge phones. They came across uninterested with our enquiries
- Kristin (10/5): - Perfect to experience old town easily!
- Susan (10/5): Fabulous all around - Great big comfortable bed, strong hot shower, fantastic balcony with the best view imaginable and helpful and professional staff- just lovey
- Ifigenia (7/5): - Κεντρικό σημείο, κοντά στα εστιατόρια και μαγαζιά.
Άνετο κρεβάτι Το πατζουρι δεν καλυπτε όλο το παράθυρο, το πρωί έμπαινε ήλιος.
Δεν υπήρχε ασανσέρ.
Σε σχέση με την τιμή (150€ για Σεπτέμβρη) νομίζω υστερεί.
- Don (8/5): Chania stay - The view from the room was fantastic. The staff were very helpful and the breakfast buffet was very good
- Aila (10/5): - Kaikesta!Huone; sijainti, näkymä parvekkeelta, aamiainen kaikki kymppitasoa!!! Ei voisi toivoa parempaa!! Ei ole mitään huonoa sanottavaa
- George (8/5): - Good property right on the water.
- Inga (9/5): Nicely decorated room with amazing views to the lighthouse of Chania. - Room had amazing views. Room wasn’t ready at check in time.
- Francis (9/5): -
- Alan (9/5): Amazing position in the heart of the old city with all the facilities of a world class hotel - Alexia was so incredibly helpful in organising a rental car to be delivered to the hotel. Thank you for incredible service. Nothing
- Audrey (10/5): - Tout sauf l’accueil L’accueil
- Peter (9/5): -
- Kelly (8/5): - Gorgeous boutique hotel with lovely modern and vintage mix of aesthetic. Lovely size room with moderate size bathroom. Breakfast was great, a lot of choice, and in a seperate hotel, a few strides down the street. Would recommend, the location was awesome. Pillows needed updating, some street sound even with windows and shutters closed, but I still slept well. Chania doesn't sleep. I was in a room facing the street side.
- Azzeddine (8/5): - La situation géographique et la propriété. Rien.
- Bernhard (10/5): Modernes cooles Hotel in BEST-Lage am venezianischen Hafen - Top Lage. Mehr geht nicht. Super Ausblick auf den venezianischen Hafen, Leuchtturm und Umgebung. Neues, äußerst modernes Zimmer mit Balkon zum Hafen. Klimaanlage funktionierte - entgegen anderslautenden Kommentaren - absolut erstklassig. Super freundliches Personal, nette Leute - man fühlte sich sofort willkommen. Sehr gutes Frühstück. Wir waren leider nur 1 Nacht dort. Beim nächsten Mal würden wir in Chania - und natürlich in diesem Hotel - mehr Tage einplanen. Aber okay, es müßte wohl schon dieses Zimmer mit Balkon sein. Fällt uns gerade echt nichts ein.
- Joshua (6/5): - So let me start by saying we communicated with this hotel a handful of times and it’s a little bit frustrating that there wasn’t anyone there to assist us upon check-in with our luggage. The hotel is in old town and so we had walk our large bags through the narrow streets and down and upstairs. Upon arriving to the hotel, they do not have an elevator and a small young lady working at the front desk so once again, being on the third floor, you have to walk your luggage up three flights of stairs to your room. Upon checking out, we asked if someone could help us in. They informed us that they only have one person that does that and they have six properties they manage so they did not know if he’d be able to help us bring our luggage down. obviously there’s nothing they can do about the rules in old town and not being able to have a car and that portion of it, but then to also not have an elevator and not have someone there to help people when they’re checking in to get their luggage in their rooms and upstairs is odd to me. They even have a winding staircase that makes it very difficult and to meet dangerous to be caring luggage up. We also did not realize how challenging it would be to find parking the hotel made it seem like it would be very easy. It was not. And once again, having to get your luggage from your vehicle to the hotel was also very challenging. I will say thatAC works extremely well though, and that was the absolute best part.
- Mahir (9/5): Good value for money - Interior design, staff no elevator

- Chrissoula (9/5): Very memorable 6 days, the breakfast served daily was so delicious and variety of choices loved the Greek cuisine ( Chan - Location was ideal a spectacular view of the old town Chania. Very much enjoyed the vibe a little noisy in the later part of the evening was manageable as chitters + windows kept the echo down.
- Per (9/5): -
- Paul (10/5): - View was 10/10, so nice to wake up to a gorgeous sunrise, location was excellent, staff was friendly, maid service was awesome, clean room everyday
No complaints
- Mariella (10/5): Awesome stay - Location is very convenient and accessible to restaurants and shops. Front desk is very helpful in booking our excursions and transportation. Booking the room with the balcony was a great, love the view and nice place to chill. Everything was clean and neat. The breakfast buffet was also terrific!
- Denise (9/5): Superb - I recently booked two rooms at this hotel — a standard room for myself and my husband, and a sea view room for my parents. Our room was very spacious, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. My parents absolutely loved their room, especially the stunning sea view and the terrace. Breakfast was excellent, with plenty of delicious options to choose from. The location is also perfect, close to everything, making it easy to explore the area on foot. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely return! There weren’t enough beach towels available for guests. We were a group of four but were only provided with one towel.
- Michelle (10/5): Exceptional -
- Elaine (9/5): Lovely stay in old town Chania - Great location with a fabulous view of the Venetian harbour.
The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very good.
Be sure to close the wooden shutters if you don’t want to be woken very early. There was noise from the nearby tavernas and bars until very late. It’s expected given the location of the hotel.
- Lisa (10/5): This is a gorgeous place to stay.. beautiful rooms, excellent location & yummy breakfast - Perfect location & beautiful property Nothing, it was all lovely
- Samantha (10/5): Well worth the stay, in the heart of the old town with a super breakfast. - The breakfast was amazing. It’s not actually in the hotel, it’s about 50m away in another hotel part of the chain. Its selection of hot, hot, sweet, fruit, and traditional goods is super. Coffee and fresh juice and the ladies who prepare everything are so sweet. Nothing
- Hyun Kyung (8/5): - Very nice staff!!
- Allan (10/5): - Very well located in little Venice area. Mini boutique hotel is so cute.
- Freda (10/5): - Lovely hotel super ambiance, great breakfasts, ideally situated in centre of Chania, reasonably priced, comfortable beds and superb cleanliness couldn’t fault it would definitely stay again. X
- Amanda (10/5): - Beautiful room, friendly staff and a great location.
- Anna (8/5): Overall great place to stay - Perfect location with amazing view of the port and backstreets of Chania with lots of shops and restaurants. The staff were very helpful. In the room there is a small window where sun comes in very early in the morning. Would suggest to change curtains to block the sun as the light woke us up. Also we could hear footsteps and the chat of other guests from the room above. Seems the bedroom was not soundproof.
- Ginette (10/5): Beautiful city, not to be missed on your visit to Crete. - Location and help from staff. Rather pricey but in the heart of the Venetian Harbour area of Hania.
- Khloe (10/5): - Couldn’t get a better location, right in the heart of Old Town Chania. You cannot drive up to the hotel, so parking is the only issue, but we found some free about 5-10 min walk away. Such beautiful unique rooms and wonderful staff.
- Roberta (10/5): - Gorgeous well-appointed room overlooking the harbour. Don’t forget to close the outside shutters or light will pour in at night!
- Claire (6/5): Pleasant -
- Sarah (8/5): Amazing view - Amazing view and great location. However not very well maintained and WIFI was poor. Breakfast is quite good.
- Jennifer (10/5): A superb room with a great view, excellent staff and first class breakfasr - The location was superb as was the view over the Venetian harbour. The staff were unfailingly helpful and obliging. The breakfast was first class Nothing
- Rebecca (8/5): - Amazing location, views over the harbour. Staff really helpful. Good breakfast options.
- Aroon (8/5): Very good -
- Russell (10/5): - Awesome location, excellent service!
- Sian (10/5): Fantastic views from the balcony - I had a really nice stay. The room itself had the most amazing view and lovely balcony and was a good size. The only downside was the thin walls - but I just slept with earplugs in. Bed was a bit softer than what I like, but that’s just personal preference. Location was perfect for exploring the old town and so many great places to eat nearby. Breakfast was a really good selection and all the staff were really friendly. I would stay again for the view alone as I am sure all the old buildings struggle noise wise.
- Alexander (10/5): - We had a fabulous few days in Chania and the Elia Zampeliou was the ideal base to explore the beautiful old town. The room was comfortable and well appointed. There could be some noise coming from the port but we slept really well
- Debra (10/5): Venetian Harbor Delight - Our stay at Elia Zampeliou Hotel in Chania's Venetian Harbor was a delight! Our room was clean, well-appointed and comfortable, with a picture-perfect view of the Harbor. The staff were friendly and professional and the price was extremely reasonable considering it also included a delicious and abundant breakfast of Greek pastries, breads and yogurts. We enjoyed exploring the narrow and colorful alleyways in this ancient part of town. The only down side was that we weren't able to stay longer. We would definitely return to Elia Zampeliou Hotel and recommend it highly.
- Xenia (9/5): Superb - It's located at the best area of Chania. The view is breathtaking. The room was exceptionally clean. However the bathroom needs to be kept in a better condition
- Laurie (10/5): - THe location was amazing. The hostess was really helpful and warm. The breakfast was outstanding. I wish I had time to stay longer.
- shannon (10/5): - amazing like action in the harbor… would definitely stay again!
- Ellen (10/5): Exceptional - Right in the heart of the old town, quiet. Clean, spacious, and comfortable . No complaints, really nice
- Mariana (10/5): - The location is unbeatable, nestled in a vibrant area with numerous restaurants, cafés, and shopping destinations within walking distance. Whether you're craving local cuisine or looking to indulge in some retail therapy, everything is just steps away.
The neighborhood itself is perfect for leisurely walks, offering a charming and lively atmosphere. I found it incredibly convenient to explore the area without needing transportation.
As for the hotel itself, the breakfast was fantastic—a wide variety of options. It's a great way to start your day before heading out to enjoy the surroundings.
