I’m reluctant to leave a fabulous review as everyone will want to go there! It was our 4th visit to the hotel & it never fails to deliver on excellence, the staff are amazingly friendly & professional, nothing is too much trouble for them. The food in the restaurant is superb & the views over to the ocean are stunning, the nightly sunsets are priceless, love it there.

The hotel is too far to walk to town if that’s something that’s important for you probably choose elsewhere. However the shuttle busses are very easy and reliable. We used them every evening

Our stay at the Royal Sun Hotel was perfect. The room with the sea view and balcony was of a high standard, clean and comfortable. The Hill restaurant, where we ate breakfast each day, had a stunning view overlooking the old port and the sea, and was a delight to sit at each morning. The breakfast choice and quality was probably the best we’ve ever experienced. The pool was great with that brilliant view and plenty of chairs and sunbeds to choose from.
All the staff were so friendly and good natured it made the stay perfect. The reception staff were always happy, willing to help, full of information and again probably the best we’ve come across. The hotel provides a shuttle mini bus to transport the guests to and from the town of Chania.
We definitely recommend the Royal Sun Hotel if you are visiting Chania.

This hotel is amazing, the only issue I had was with the hours for the gym. It didn’t open until 9am and from at 2pm till 5pm, then closed again at 9pm. While I understand the need to keep things quiet for other guests, it wasn't conducive for traveling. No early morning workout before breakfast.

Comments on hotel are misleading, be ware of this. Check in was not a pleasant experience, the lady at front desk was annoyed from the moment I approached the desk.Requests about VIP perks were brushed off, not recognized or not available. The place was practically empty. The initial room provided had mold on the roof of the bathroom. The second room had the same issue and the third one was apparently all they had available. There was mold in there as well but not as visible as it was in the other two. It had clearly been painted over. My reservation was none refundable so I endured. The gym is dated and it was in a mess when I walked in there after check in. Decided not to go back in there. My room was cleaned daily but bring your own towel if you must stay here. The towels house keeping kept leaving me after the second day should be retired. The rooms are not soundproof, any movement or sound in other rooms could be heard in my room, as a light sleeper this was challenging. After an attempt on the behalf of Expedia to assist, I was magically provided wine and a plate of fruit mid stay. Even though the hotel is old, there is soo much potential but it’s poorly maintained. The wall papers in the three rooms I saw was on their last leg. Attention to detail could go a long way. The restaurant on 3rd floor had great views, service was slow but I didn’t mind. The staff in the restaurant were polite and the food was tolerable.

I didn’t like how it was dealt with it.

I liked the place but it I have couple of points to comment on. First the walk to my room was extremely dark, and it was really scary to walk to hallway.
Second, as I was in the room and taking a shower, someone opened the door and left the door open. I called the front desk and she asked me 3 times if I am sure that this happened! Why would anybody lie about something like this. I asked her to check with the cleaning lady, she did and called me back apologizing. But that is very unprofessional because why would she try to get in on the first place, how is she not informed that there is a customer in there. Then since she opened and saw that there is somebody in there, why d didn’t she close the door after her.
It is just a very unprofessional incident that scared me a lot.

One of the best hotels we’ve stayed in, pool area was great, gorgeous views over the town of Chania and the sea. The buffet breakfast is excellent, something for everyone, it is served 7-10.30 which is great, don’t need to get up too early! The free shuttle into Chaniá was great, drivers were lovely, the drop off point is by the old market, we felt no pressure to tip but always did (others mentioned this). The hotel is a 10/15minute drive / 45 minute walk from Chania centre, we would recommend getting a hire car if you want to travel about, Crete isn’t very accessible otherwise. Hotel had amazing views and was all round an excellent place to stay. Only down side was the gym - there was no air con so was a little hot in there! Machines are old but had good variety, very few dumbbells. There is a supermarket a 10 minute walk away from the hotel which was handy but you do need to climb back up the very steep hill!
