The property was at a great location. The staff was helpful in providing transportation to the airport.

Only complaint was that you could hear a lot of things going on outside of the room from other parts of the hotel.

Outside the hotel there are a lot of stray cats and animals that dedicate in the sidewalks and was not cleaned up after a few days of staying even. But this is the neighborhood environment not the hotel.

Several good restaurants in walking distance.

The hotel was understaffed, but the staff on site was very helpful and friendly. The neighborhood is very noisy. One night a person yelled in the hallway for hours. There was no one to deal with him.

The hotel advertises “free parking.” However, most nights there were not enough spots for all the guests. We were advised to park on the road but received a costly parking ticket.

We stayed 8 nights at this hotel and found it to be a good location while touring the area by car. The room and public areas were kept clean. There was always parking available. Breakfast included hot and cold items and the area was kept very clean. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Several good restaurants and a few convenience stores nearby. We didn’t take advantage of the pool as the weather was still cool. The hotel is well located for our purposes, about a 15 minute drive into Chania and close to the national highway.

All the staff were very obliging and very helpful.
This is not a Hotel. Rooms for rent, more applicable. Our room, the classic, was very small, very little storage room, very small wardrobe. Which had five clothe hangers.
No were to store the suitcase, so small it was difficult for two people to move around. Luke warm shower in the morming, air conditioning was faulty, these were rectified after several complaints were made. Very poor choice of television channels. WiFi was ver good. Spoke to maitaince staff, who informed us that last year's maintenance had not been carried out untill we had arrived.
Ancient coffee machine, which was broken. No kettle or tea making facilities.
No communal areas, no seating facilities, no bar. Only a small restaurant were breakfast was served, closed at 10 am. Very small pool, with sun loungers. No tables or chairs.
This is ok for one or two nights. We a were there for ten nights.
OVER all very dissapoint ING.

Couldn’t recommend this hotel enough! The breakfast buffet every day was great, our room had great facilities such as a balcony, huge shower/ room and great added extras. It was thoroughly cleaned everyday and the staff were all lovely and very helpful. We had parking everyday for our rented car and the hotel couldn’t be in a more convenient spot. Only a 15 minute drive to chania town centre, and not even a 2 minute walk to the beach. Honestly would come back again in a heartbeat.

Small room

Room was much smaller than anticipated with little storage for suitcases etc. There was no sea view to mention and the plug sockets / USB port in the room were broken - only one was working. These were not repaired during our stay, though a bottle of wine was left for us.
Hotel is small but clean and staff are friendly. Good location to get about and see Chania too.

We found the Elia on Expedia and all the reviews were excellent, I can honestly say the reality was just as good, if not better.
The room was a lovely size, a massive comfortable bed, and a quite frankly brilliant shower.
The greatest USP of the Elia is the staff, the lady who organised the breakfasts is really lovely and explained all the various breakfast dishes to us, lovely freshly squeezed orange juice and a spotless breakfast room.
The reception staff helped us find great places to visit, where to find the bus the Chania and local places to eat. They are all a tremendous asset to the hotel.

No surprises, budget hotel in a budget location

Service: TOP QUALITY.
Everything else was FINE. This is a budget hotel, in a VERY BUDGET location.
I was happy with the value I got, but note that this area is not the best in Crete and the hotel location while OK is not the best if you are staying for more than a couple of days. Having said that, facilities were fine and room was very nice and clean. So, overall I think I got what I paid for so I believe if you know what you are getting then go for it.

Lovely and part of the actual town as opposed to too touristy. The beach is 100 metres away and the pool is really nice. The rooms are really big and the bathroom is lovely with a great shower. The best thing about the hotel is the staff though, especially Eleni who was making breakfast for us every morning (different stuff every day!) She is the nicest, most helpful person. Always smiley and trying her best to make our stay better. She even brought us fruit salad when we were by the pool around midday, and always made sure we had enough iced water before she left. I'd go back just for Eleni! What a beautiful human being!

Allasosasto melko pieni ja sijaitsi varjossa iltapäivästä iltaan.
Aamiaisella työntekijä niukka sanainen ja tympeää oloinen.
Liian vähän parkkipaikkoja pihassa, toki ladunvarteen voi myös paekeerata.
