Outstanding stay. Love the location, quiet at night but Easy walk to the Venetian Harbor restaurants, shops, lighthouse. Lovely pool. Has a Gym. Valet parking is ok, and not too expensive, 15euro/day. Breakfast is delicious. Just perfectly happy with the hotel stay.

We absolutely loved this hotel and had the best stay. The staff were so friendly and attentive to our needs. The breakfast had so many options and the facilities at the hotel were top notch. The bed was so comfortable, we had the best sleeps! Also loved the cats that slept near the pool (sammy was the cutest). Would definitely recommend anyone to say here on their stay, and if we ever came back to Chania we would stay here 100%.

We’ve stayed at Samaria Hotel on many occasions and find it quite charming each visit… The staff are very friendly, often going above and beyond to ensure your stay is wonderful… The pool is a great asset, alongside the on-site enclosed parking area… A block away from the main port of Chania so no need for a car in the evenings if you’re staying close by… Overall a wonderful hotel, with a wonderful location!

Samaria Hotel is very nice hotel to stay and within walking distance to most of tye shops and restaurants. The room was spacious and cozy. Unfortunately, some of the staff seemed unwilling to help when needed and my son was stopped from coming to our room upon his arrival.
