Featuring a restaurant and a pool with sun terrace amidst its palm-tree garden, Royal Sun lies within 3 km from the centre of Chania Town. It offers air-conditioned accommodation with free Wi-Fi and a private balcony overlooking the Cretan Sea and the town. Nice and quiet where the hotel is. They offer a free taxi service to take you into town and back. Would recommend getting the breakfast included as there’s no where to eat near the hotel. Hotels food and drinks are very good. Staff are super friendly they bought out more deckchairs for us when it got busy by the pool. They also can arrange taxis for you to and from the airport for €26, if you’re coming here I wouldnt rent a car, its very hilly and you dont need one! But for the most part it’s very quiet, clean and looks just as good as the pictures.

Modernly decorated, the air-conditioned units come with a flat-screen TV and a safety deposit box. Each includes a kitchenette with fridge and kitchenware, and a furnished balcony with views of the sea or the pool. Very nice hotel, relaxing. Very good breakfast. We hired car and drove to close famous beaches like Falasarna and Elafonisi. We went also to famous Balos beach by boat from near Port of Kissamos. We drove to close Platanias and Chania. We had a perfect vacation.

Porto Veneziano Hotel enjoys a privileged location on the waterfront of Chania's Old Venetian harbour. It offers panoramic views and accommodation in a minimal navy design.

Just 300 metres from the centre of Chania, Porto Veneziano is an ideal base for your stay in this historic town. Fitted with geothermal air conditioning, the modern guest rooms are appointed with private balconies, allowing you to admire views of the harbour, the Old Town or the White Mountains of Crete. Although the property is ranked as a 3* hotel because of the smaller rooms, everything else is asking for a 4+. We had a lovely experience starting with the reception. The 2 ladies were so nice and attentive to all our needs. The same friendly and polite attitude from all the hotel staff. Breakfast was included, varied (fruits, yoghourt, salads, bruschetta, pastry, boiled eggs) and fresh. The room was clean with comfy beds. We really liked the room amenities: hair conditioner available in the shower, slippers, tea, soft napkins. We appreciated the free car parking also, as the harbor area is a bit crowded.
