My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and had an absolutely wonderful time! It was very centrally located, the rooms were beautiful, and the staff were so friendly and helpful. The included breakfast was delicious with lots of options. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing location, looking over the lighthouse and harbour. The owner is fantastic and very helpful. Parking in the area can be tricky; Talos square is often full so you need to park on the street. Breakfast is absolutely delicious and filling. I highly recommend.

If I could give 10 stars, instead of just 5, I would! Eva, Nicos, and all the gals were so accommodating and amazingly helpful and generous. We got very spoiled by all of them, especially Eva! We stayed in the smallest room they have but it worked great. You have to be prepared going in that it is very small. Smaller than most US hotel rooms. But the view of the lighthouse, sea, and museum grounds made it so worth it. We loved it and it didn't bother us at all. We got to know many of the staff and other couples and realized that this location is the best in old town. Right as you enter the harbor/port, so easy access to everything in and out of the port area, especially Nea Chora beach, shopping and restaurants just steps away. The food was amazing and tried most of the hotel suggested restaurants and they were all very very good. Mostly outdoor dining with no bugs. Perfect! Besides the hotel and all the staff my favorite part of the trip was meeting the locals in the villages. Some were real characters and the food was authentic and delicious! Try the goat! I LOVED it! I recommend going in early to mid June. That is when we were there for 9 days. Then is before the big season rush and the weather was perfect. Around the mid 80's F and no humidity so perfect for about anything you want to do from beach to shopping. If you can afford longer I suggest 11 or 12 days. I could go on on on...

This was one of the coolest hotels we have stayed in. It is a 500 year old castle. The rooms are huge, with very comfortable beds and the best rain shower. The staff are so friendly and accommodating to all your needs. They also give you a traditional Greek breakfast in the morning. The location was perfect with fun shops, restaurants and the beach. Thank You Renee and Alex

The hotel is located in the corner of the fortress right across from the lighthouse. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the staff was super friendly.

We checked out early, the next morning due to unacceptable conditions and unprofessional treatment at Alcanea Boutique Hotel. Our room was extremely small, barely larger than a walk-in closet, we had to turn sideways to move around. The hygiene was even worse: large amounts of long black hair were stuck to the shower walls, and the sheets smelled strongly of mildew, making them unusable. My wife had to use her shawl to drape over her because the sheets smelled bad. When we brought this to the manager’s attention, she denied responsibility and rudely implied we planted the hair ourselves, which was both offensive and unprofessional. We do not recommend this hotel.

4 night stay in late March/Early April. Beautiful location on the harbor. Great atmosphere. Felt extremely safe. Eva was very welcoming and room was lovely. Parking is nearby and is free, and an easy walk with roller bags. Would definitely return and our visit wasn’t nearly long enough.

Booked for 4 nights and left at 5 am the next DAY AND BOOK OTHER HOTEL. This place doesn't have a front desk, reception etc. So noisy and scary...we were by ourselves in the house and we didn't feel safe. DIRTY SMELL ROOM ,MOLD AND BED BUGS,THE TOWELS WERE SO OLD AND YELLOW. THE FLOORS WERE SO OLD . THIS IS AN OLD DIRTY HOUSE NOT A 4* BOUTIQUE HOTEL.THE REVIWS ARE NOT REAL....CANT BE!

Awesome Iconic location built right into a 1600s fortress. Third floor walk up was tough on us though. If I came again I would have to stay on the second floor

We absolutely loved this hotel. The location is perfect in Old town Chania. We had a beautiful view of the lighthouse from our room. It is on the end away from most of the noise. The room (4), building, were beautiful. The breakfast was delicious, service was great. We also enjoyed a glass of wine at night too. Ava was delightful and so welcoming!!!! If you are okay with stairs you have to stay here. Remember its a 500 plus year old building. Its not perfect and not American ADA compliant.

We absolutely loved our stay here. It was just on the edge of the port so it was quiet and peaceful but a short walk to all the action. Ava was very kind, sweet, helpful, and so accommodating. We highly recommend staying here!

This cute hotel is in a perfect location in the beautiful harbor. Having a café on the first floor, lots of restaurants and shopping close by, a beach within less than 20 min walking, it was perfect! The staff went above and beyond to make us comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.
