The room was just as described I got my hot tub and king size bed. There were 2 cons which was the bathroom being the main 1 the shower drains would flood the bathroom so it was a slip and fall waiting to happen and then there was a water bottle behind my bed which let me know the room wasn’t thoroughly cleaned or inspected. Other than those 2 things everything else was good. It was close to all the restaurants and shopping area.

Perfect location in the city center, very nice and clean room. The service was perfect. My only negative point is the condition of the toilette & shower. While taking a shower the hole floor was getting full of water, and that was not so comfortable.

There was so much noise because of the cafe-bar under the elia potie. There was no reception and the breakfast was served 2blocks away at elia betolo where we stayed because of all the above. Also when I booked the roon was bb and the staff informedvme that there was no breakfast included in my reservation at elia potie! Elia betolo though was wonderful!

Nice clean room

The room was very clean and had all the amenities you would need, including toothbrushes etc. Nice design, looks like recently refurbished. Location is very good - town centre, but unfortunately you can hear all the noise from bars which are located downstairs. Tiny downside - there is no reception in this hotel, so you need to check-in/out in the main Elia Betolo Hotel which is located 1min walk away.

We were amazed of our sound proof room! Quite calm inside. In the heart of Chania old town, close to everything (shops, restaurants, bars, the old harbor).

Beautiful and comfortable boutique hotel

The room was spacious, clean and had a very comfortable bed. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The location was really central, which made it easily accessible - although it was slightly noisy at night during the weekend.

Weekend visit 20-23rd May.

The Rooms were very well appointed with very comfortable beds and the location was excellent being only 5 minutes walk to the harbour. On the minus side, the wash basin was blocked, we called the receptionist twice and notified the cleaner but nothing was done during our 3 day stay. There was a coffee machine in the room but no coffee, tea, milk or sugar, we were told to go to their other hotel around the corner to get some. There was cable TV but it didn't work. No toilet Paper on the 2nd day and room hadn't been cleaned. Below the hotel is a cafe bar and a Bar/ Bistro which was very noisy. The main problem is there is no reception in the Hotel, but someone should be on hand especially during the busy period to deal with problems.

Stayed 3 nights. The noisiest room I have ever stayed in. The streets below are lined with bars which are open most of the night. On the second day the air con broke down , was not fixed , so it was impossible to sleep with no air con. Would not recommend to anyone.

Modern, clean, and comfortable.

Cute little place in a central location. The rooms are very modern and comfortable. No front desk on the premises, but it's located in their other property about 1.5 blocks away. Unfortunately there is only one key per room. The lack of keys was apparent especially in the fact that when we arrived we could not immediately access our room, as the cleaning lady took the key home with her! Luckily she returned it rather quickly. No elevator, and there are stairs to climb, so take this into account. Overall, however, we were pleased.

Bästa läget i Chania

Jättebra läge i gamla stan med balkong ut mot gågata. Man checkar in på huvudhotellet sen följer receptionisten med till hotellet som ligger bara runt hörnet. Det är branta trappor i huset och har man problem med att bära eller gå så ska man välja huvudhotellet. Vi fick be om hjälp med hämtning av väskorna vid utcheckningen. Hotellet har en minibuss som hämtar från flygplatsen mot en kostnad. De ordnar även utflykter till Elafonissi mm. Frukosten på huvudhotellet är väldigt fin. Vi köpte till det en av dagarna. Bor gärna på huvudhotellet igen då där finns hiss.
