Great stay in Chania

Perfect hotel for our Chania adventures. The hotel is a short walk to the old town and harbor. It’s also adjacent to the bus station - that made it easy for our trek to Samariá Gorge. The staff was incredibly helpful with tips for things to do and best way to do them. We would absolutely stay again.

We’ve stayed at Samaria Hotel on many occasions and find it quite charming each visit… The staff are very friendly, often going above and beyond to ensure your stay is wonderful… The pool is a great asset, alongside the on-site enclosed parking area… A block away from the main port of Chania so no need for a car in the evenings if you’re staying close by… Overall a wonderful hotel, with a wonderful location!
