Skafi Holidays from AU$2,111

Cute and quaint boutique hotel. Don’t expect much, but that’s okay, you’re there for the charm, experience and location! My particular room was perfect for 1 person, but would not be comfortable for two - which was fine since I was meeting family after Crete. If you aren’t looking for a lot of bells and whistles, this probably works. Be prepared to roll your luggage down the street! Cars can’t enter after a certain point.

I had an excellent stay at Hotel Malmo in Chania. The staff provided truly outstanding service — warm, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. The hotel itself is comfortable and well-kept, but it’s the exceptional team that made the experience unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Clean modern hotel right around the corner from Chania old town. Excellent breakfast buffet and rooftop pool and bar.

Great staff, beautiful room and view, quick walk to beach, quiet enough to listen to the ocean at night.

Wonderful hotel in terms of staff (who were so helpful and friendly), location (a few minutes walk to the harbour and old town which are magical) and hotel amenities. Breakfast selection was very good and whilst the pool area is small, we had no problem getting a sun bed when we wanted. We booked two premium rooms (as travelling with our daughter) which were very nice, were given complimentary bottles of water daily, as well as toiletries being replenished. The only downside was that we couldn’t use our balconies, as across the narrow street opposite a large building was being renovated.
