I had a lovely stay at Samaria - the property is centrally located to explore Chania town. It’s a very short walk to all the shops, restaurants, beach, museums etc. The staff is great and they even help you get a taxi transfer from the airport - I later realized that the bus station is right next to the hotel and so you could use the local bus service to get to the airport, which is considerably cheaper. The swimming pool is small, but really nice really beautiful and a relaxing way to spend the day. They also have a well stocked library with some beautiful picture books. Overall just a great stay and not forget to mention the breakfast is absolutely delicious.

Great location within a 5 min walk to the harbor. Close to dining and night life. Away from the crowded streets. Only downside was that our air conditioned never worked. Being that it was July, sleeping was a bit uncomfortable.

Such a fabulous hotel for part of our honeymoon. We were given a beautiful penthouse suite upgrade. Thanks for the lovely cake and champagne! The staff were very friendly and helpful. Lovely breakfast. The pool and gym are great. Thanks for letting us use the pool and showers after we checked out too before we went to get our boat to the mainland.
