Average hotel in good location
We quite enjoyed our stay here. The staff were pleasant and helpful. However, we felt that our twin bed room was not as attractive as the doubles. It also had a curious high step into the bathroom. It was good to have a coffee machine but it seems pointless and mean to charge for capsules after the first two. The breakfast was no more than adequate in quality.

Perfect location, right in the middle of Old town Chania with Lots of restaurants near by and the bus station is only 9min walking. Staff was really helpful. Breakfast was good, I wish they had a few more veggie options but it’s good overall. We paid for a superior room but got a standard ro instead when I told the front office person she showed me the “superior room” to see if we wanted to change rooms but it looked exactly like the one we had. So my opinion, don’t pay extra for the superior room. Overall a great stay I will definitely stay here again if I come back to Chania.

Good property in a great location. Plentiful breakfast (which was included for my booking) and very helpful staff. Having stayed at another of Elia's other properties in Chania earlier in the year, I would say I prefer the company's apartment-style suites (the Daliani is the one I was in) to the Betolo, but that's only because I like the illusion of seemingly coming home to an apartment rather than the reality of coming back to a hotel room at the end of a day of sightseeing. The staff are super helpful at the front desk. Every time I had a question, they either had or would find an answer. This was one advantage of staying at the main hotel property.

Thank you for taking the time to rate us and add your review comments in a way that makes a beautiful distinction between the different types of our properties but which is also very true and the essence of the reason we decided to expand in so many properties at the Venetian Harbor. Ten to be precise. So please have a look for more. I am sure they will offer you a rewarding experience for your accommodation.

Very nice hotel
We stayed here for 3 nights. The first 2 nights was in a double room and the last night we had to change rooms to a twin as we decided to extend our stay by 1 night but the double rooms were full . Both rooms are very nice , the double was bigger. Very modern feel and nice layout. The shower in our double room was cool, had music, a steamer, and massage jets. The twin room had a better view of city and the mountains. Very nice breakfast. If you want to stay in the center of everything with lots of shops and restaurants then this place is great. The only negative I would say is that if you are driving , you cannot access the hotel directly to drop off bags etc. there is a parking lot a few blocks away but has limited parking and is free from 9pm-9am, and about 8-10 minutes walk there is a very large parking lot that is always free.
