Samaria Hotel, hotel in Chania Town

Located in the heart of Chania, within 450 metres from the Venetian harbour, the modern Samaria Hotel is ideally situated just above the main square, next to the central bus station.

I'm delighted to highlight the exceptional hospitality provided by the staff at this hotel. Their warmth and willingness to assist were truly remarkable, making our stay incredibly pleasant. Not only were they readily available at all times, but their eagerness to help with any inquiry, no matter how trivial, was truly commendable. This attention to cleanliness greatly contributed to our overall comfort and satisfaction during our stay. Situated in close proximity to the old city, it offered convenient access to historical sites and cultural attractions. This prime location allowed us to explore the charm and beauty of the old city with ease, adding to the enjoyment of our visit.

FAQs about hotels in Chania Town









A Charming Crossroads of Civilisations

Situated on the west part of Crete, the city of Chania is the second largest in this beautiful Greek island. Featuring rich history, breathtaking architecture and pristine beaches, Chania will take you to a fascinating journey through time.

Get your camera and wander around the narrow alleys of the old town or walk on the romantic promenade area of the old harbour with the iconic lighthouse. Set on a small hill, the central part of the town is called Kastelli and is populated since the Neolithic period.

A crossroads of civilisations, the city of Chania offers a harmonic combination of Venetian, Turkish and traditional Greek architecture. Do not miss the Greek Orthodox Cathedral Church of Chania, the Mosque of the Janissaries and the Venetian Fortification Walls.

The vibrant area of the new and old town has local taverns serving delicious regional specialties and tsikoudia. If you are lucky you might hear a Cretan mantinada, an improvised folk song about the everyday life.  

Located on the Akrotiri Peninsula, the Chania International Airport is about 17 km from the city centre and offers year-round and seasonal flights to London, Brussels, Athens and Thessaloniki. Booking.com will help you find the right hotel, guest house or apartment in Chania.

    I was in Chania for 4 days and it wasn’t enough for me.

    I was in Chania for 4 days and it wasn’t enough for me. I’d recommend At least 5. The medieval town is breathtaking, you can walk through time travel on cobblestone streets that narrow and get a half liter of wine for 5 euros each and have dinner made my locals family for 5 euro. I ate a gourmet dinner on the boardwalk with a carafe of wine dinner for 2 only 65 euros and it was the most amazing food I have ate in my life. I highly recommend.

    Stunning place, wonderful people and delicious food. Nea Chora beach is fantastic and there are many restaurants and cafés to choose from. I love to go before and after the high season. Easy to rent a car and drive around, the driving experience was fantastic, good roads and signals. People drive sensibly and there is free parking all over the island with no tolls at all.

    The old town is lovely full of independent stores selling leather goods, clothes etc. Eat at one of the restaurants overlooking the port and lighthouse for fantastic views. Loved the backdrop of the snow covered mountains while basking in the 26 degrees sun despite it still being March.

    We loved the Venetian port and the Old Town.

    We loved the Venetian port and the Old Town. One of our favourite places was a restaurant called Paradisiaco in the upper part of the port on Theotokopoulou Street. It is a very interesting neighbourhood. A beautiful art shop with a friendly owner is in the same area. Another good restaurant is Maridaki in Maridaki Steet.

    Its a quiet, mountainside/seaside town with amazing food. I dont think I had one bad meal there. The beaches are amazing and the water is a crystal clear green/blue. I'm sure there are lots of activities and things to do involving hiking and snorkeling. If you're looking for lots of shopping from big retail, I dont think this is the place for you. A lot of the shops are local businesses.

    The Pandora Suites was the perfect stay for our first trip to Crete. The accommodations were lovely. We had a two bedroom suite which was just the right size for our group of four. The location of the hotel is right in the heart of the old town. The best restaurants, shops, cafes and pubs are all within walking distance. We also greatly enjoyed the rooftop breakfasts each morning which overlook the harbor and the old town. it was a wonderful four day visit. We would highly recommend this property to anyone planning a visit to Chania.

    The property is in a superb location. It has spectacular views from the rooftop. The owner (6th generation) attended at property daily to greet guests and provide helpful tips to ensure you are maximizing and enjoying your stay. I always book five star resorts/hotels when I go away, and this property exceeded my hopes for an exceptional stay. The room was more spacious than I anticipated (2 children, 2 adults). We felt like we were in a picture book. I will always stay at this property when returning to Crete.

    It was a great little flat, very quietly located and lovingly furnished. Everything you need on holiday and more was there. It is a pleasant 15-20 minute walk along the coast of Crete to the centre of Old Town. Tammy was our contact person on site and helped us with all questions and concerns immediately and absolutely professionally. Even restaurant reservations were taken care of. That simply rounded off the luxury. If we come to Chania again, we will ask for the accommodation again.

    We loved our stay at the Kedrissos Hotel. Everywhere is immaculately clean and the staff are all delightful and we felt very welcome. We walked to the beach in 10 minutes, to Chania Old Town in 40 minutes and to the supermarket in 5 minutes. The hotel is near to a main road with bus stops but is set far enough back from the road to be peaceful. The swimming pool and restaurant are so clean and the food is very good. We will definitely stay again when we return to Crete.
