Antica Canea Luxury Rooms

This was a rare treat - an elegant and well-appointed small guesthouse with all the warmth of “ old Chania” As someone travelling with a partner with limited mobility, it’s wonderful to have the chance to interact beforehand and feel your concerns are understood. Here there are three rooms on the ground floor - and although I’m not sure they would allow wheelchair access - they were perfect for someone with difficulty walking. The hotel is also very accessible by taxi - my husband has to walk less than 20 metres from the taxi to the door. Micheles is also a kind and thoughtful host.

We have been here for three days, specially to use for point to do excursions to Balos, Gramvousa and Elafonissi beach. The place is nice. You have parking but only two spots, so book in advance. Anyways, you can park the car on the street. We stayed in Attic Room so we have to use upstairs (very high ones) and go to the second floor. The place have a small pool to refresh yourself, maps, umbrellas to use in the beach, and in the last floor, a terrace for dry your shirts or whatever and use the common terrace area. The room is tinny, but the bed is the most comfortable during my Crete trip. The condition air works fine and you have also a fridge to keep your water cold. The bathroom was very small, and not enough pressure of cold water. This was solved by Michele, the owner of the place. He is very kind, helpful. He helped us to bring down our heavy luggage (I recommend use small suitcases in this country, not so many elevators), to park our car and also resolved the water pressure issue. He also recommended to us places to have breakfast, dinner, lunch. He is one of the best things of the place. A gift to have in mind because it helps to have a more confortable stay. The location of the place is perfect to move around and visit the port, old town and the beautiful areas in Chania. Chania is the most beautiful town of Crete, so I would recommend to stay here.

Beautiful rooms are very comfortable, easy access to the port and old town. Plunge pool and attic deck definitely got regular use. Access to upper rooms is by staircase so bringing a large suitcase would be a tight squeeze. Very comfy beds, coffee machine, jug, fridge, safe in the room.

It is a beautiful place to stay. The hosts make you feel very welcome. Rooms are lovely and are well serviced and have everything you need. It is located in the the heart of the old Chania town, but very quiet and very close to the harbour and shops and restaurants. Highly recommend.

Lovely property with great rooms - the photos are very accurate. We stayed in the attic room which was kept immaculate, and we enjoyed having our morning coffee on the roof terrace each day. The hosts have built this from the ground up and you can tell they take great pride in it, and want to ensure their guests have everything they need for their stay. Super location as well - just a 2 minute walk from the historic harbour front.

I had the most incredible experience at Antica Canea. The owners are so incredibly helpful and the friendliest people in Greece (which is saying something as everyone here is amazing!). Not only that, the room was beautiful, spacious and perfect facilities. The terrace on the roof and the small pool and terrace downstairs were gorgeous and extremely welcome and rare for a boutique hotel in the old town of Chania! Location was perfect -right next to the harbour and slap bang in the middle of restaurants and shops, but incredibly quiet and peaceful. I came here to work and I can say I'm overjoyed at having chosen this property to stay in. The wi-fi is excellent and even works just as well on the roof terrace and by the pool. If I could give this property and the owners more than 5 stars I would -this is the blueprint for how you should run a boutique hotel!
