It was an enchanting and brilliant hotel in a tourist area. I had a savoury and plentiful breakfast as for atmosphere, the food was delicious. No complains at all, the venue met what was needed, 100% recommend it.

Everything is superb here, had a very nice stay for an absolutely fantastic vacation. Absolutely perfect setting, it's short walk to the local restaurants and a bridge across the street. Need to add that there's lots of restaurants to choose from, like Happy Gathering, located within 15 minutes walk or so.
Views are nothing special.

This hotel was wonderful base for exploring Platanias, appreciated it and property’s exceptionally attentive and caring staff from the maids to management. The rooms were contemporary, brand-new with view, ideal for us. The setting was magnificent, really close to Chania town centre, beautiful place, the restaurants and an overhead bridge. Found time to see Platanias Beach, that's relatively close to the property.
It had hard beds, maybe it was bad luck.

New-fashioned unit with a classic decor, welcoming staff from the maids. Fast check-in, marvellous location close enough to the Minoa Palace in Platanias, and Platanias central square and old town on the hill.

Choose imperial queen room with a mountain view. The location was convenient and peaceful, close to the Galazio restaurant specialising in organic food here, and bridge. And also it was 100 metres or so from Platanias beach.
