I had a truly lovely stay at this hotel. The communication prior was excellent, they were extremely helpful in answering my questions and organising further requests. I was later to arrival than expected but Eva was so kind and understanding, she showed me the room and the amenities of the hotel. She had a very friendly persona and a wonderful smile that made a beautiful end to my holiday in Crete. The bar underneath was an excellent hub to sit and people watch, enjoy the views and have a drink. The staff were very helpful and accommodating. Free breakfast was well organised and delicious, extremely appreciated. I really loved the garden and additional seating areas within the hotel, I felt I could really relax in safety whilst travelling solo. I stayed here alone and would not hesitate to come back or recommend to friends!

Yes, the menu offered a variety of fresh plates every day, along with tea and choices of coffee. We are travellers from Canada and we were made very welcome. Surrounding the area there are many cafes offering a large variety of lunch and dinner menus and the area is very pleasant to walk. The room we had was very spacious , the bed very comfortable and the bathroom offered an excellent shower with lots of hot water

Perfect location right next to the water, great central spot for exploring old town and the surrounding areas. Building is expertly conserved and updated while maintaining its character. One of the coolest places I have stayed with a direct view of the lighthouse from our room. The staff is definitely a highlight, Eva especially helping with any questions and an exceptionally warm welcome, going above and beyond for even the little things. With it being the off season many places were closed, however they provided some recommendations of nearby restaurants. The complimentary breakfast was great and helped round out the stay.

Firstly the location .. right on the Venetian harbour.. close to everything! The room was beautiful- spacious and well furnished. Breakfast was very good ..a tick list with plenty of options and all felt fresh. The staff were excellent .. couldn’t do enough for you and so friendly! Two minor things for balance .. it was a little noisy in the evenings .. some of the bars were playing music until after midnight and the sound proofing was not the best. Secondly, to not offer top up of nespresso pods / tea bags and water on a longer stay felt like penny pinching - presumably if new people had been arriving daily they would have received them ? Small things in the scheme of things - more feedback for the hotel group than a reason not to book!

Alcanea Boutique Hotel is an absolute gem in Chania! Eva was exceptional, checking in on us when our flight was delayed, providing us with detailed recommendations of restaurants and beaches then following up with us on our return. The location was incredible and the interior and exterior of the 500 year old building provided for such a unique experience. Despite it being an older historical building the rooms were updated with great amenities. I’d recommend this to anyone, the best place we stayed on our Europe travels!
