Un véritable coup de cœur ! Cet hôtel réunit le confort et les prestations d'un grand resort, tout en conservant ce qui fait le charme des établissements à taille humaine : le calme, la convivialité et un accueil chaleureux. La chambre est spacieuse, parfaitement équipée et d'une propreté irréprochable. La literie est très confortable, le ménage est fait tous les jours et tout est impeccablement entretenu. La kitchenette est un vrai plus, tout comme la terrasse, idéale pour prendre son petit-déjeuner ou profiter de la douceur des soirées crétoises. L'emplacement est excellent : à seulement 15 minutes à pied du centre de La Canée et de la mer, tout en étant suffisamment à l'écart pour profiter d'un environnement paisible. Un supermarché se trouve juste à côté, ce qui est très pratique au quotidien. Nous avons passé un séjour parfait et reviendrons sans la moindre hésitation. Une adresse que je recommande les yeux fermés !

Really great little find. The hotel is exceptionally clean and a great self-catering option. It has only a small number of apartments so is nice and quiet. The staff are very friendly and it is in a good location about 20 mins walk into town, close to bus stops and with a supermarket right next door.

Ein tolles kleines, familiengeführtes Hotel mit erstklassigem Service, weshalb wir es ein zweites Mal gebucht haben. Unser Zimmer war geräumig mit tollen Betten, 2 Kissen unterschiedlicher Härtegrade. Wir haben vorzüglich geschlafen. Das kleine Bad war modern und Duschgel wird gestellt. Es gab eine kleine Küchenzeile mit Kühlschrank und Filter-Kaffeemaschine. Der erste Kaffee geht aufs Haus :). Dank gab es noch einen Schminktisch und einen kleinen Esstisch. Auf unserem Balkon gab es eine Trockenvorrichtung für Wäsche und Tisch und Stühle. Eine Klimaanlage ist natürlich vorhanden. Das tägliche Frühstück wird am Tisch serviert, kann aber auch auf dem Zimmer, Terrasse, Balkon genossen werden. Es besteht aus einer Etagere mit Butter, süßen Aufstrichen, Müsli, Nüssen und Kernen. Es gibt einen Brotkorb, Käse und Schinken, ein täglich wechselndes Eiergericht an Salatbouquet mit einem Röstbrot. Obstsalat, griechischer Joghurt und 1 Glas Orangensaft rundet das ganze ab. Kaffee soviel man möchte. Der kleine Pool reicht für eine Erfrischung allemal. Neben dem Hotel liegt ein gut ausgestatteter Supermarkt, perfekt. Zur Altstadt läuft man ein Viertelstündchen, ebenso wie zu einem kleinen Stadtstrand, von dem aus man auch in die Altstadt schlendern kann. Einen Schorcheltrip mit dem Boot, einen Ausflug zum Kourna See können wir empfehlen. Wir haben das Creta Elena Hotel wieder sehr genossen und danken dem gesamten Team. Empfehlenswert :)

Supermysigt

Väldigt mysigt litet hotell i Chania . Mycket trevligt bemötande av alla som jobbade där . Cirka 15-20 minuters promenad till ”gamla Chania” och Nea Chara beach. Man har alla bekvämligheter inom räckhåll, mycket mysiga restauranger, supermarket 50 m från hotellet, bageri etc .

Hôtel magnifique

Nous avons sejournés 7 jours dans ce petit hôtel magnifique et calme. Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été accueillis par une charmante personne qui nous a indiqué tout les endroits, spots à visiter. Le personnel est au petits soins et d'une gentillesse extrême. Petit déjeuner servi à table au bord de la petite piscine propre, quel agréable moment ! La chambre est très propre, fonctionnelle. Ménage impeccable tout les jours. Centre ville à une vingtaine de minutes à pied principalement plat. Parfait pour digérer après un bon repas 😀 Je recommande absolument !

Questo hotel è un gioiellino in ogni dettaglio: dalla bella piscina alle camere moderne ed arredate con molto gusto! Abbiamo soggiornato in un loft al primo piano, completo di ogni comfort: angolo cottura piccolo ma ben assortito, bagno con doccia bella e nuova, camera da letto matrimoniale al piano superiore e letto aggiuntivo in salotto. Inoltre il nostro loft era dotato di due terrazze dove poter fare colazione o avere qualche attimo di relax! Davvero tutto bellissimo

Très bon séjour

Très bon séjour. Propreté impeccable. Service hôtelier impeccable. Personnel très serviable mais malheureusement ne parlant pas français. Piscine très agréable. Petit déjeuner correct. Proximité immédiate d un supermarché très pratique à des prix très abordables. Quartier calme à 20 mn du centre de la canée et de la bus station.

Hotellet ligger centralt och har en pool som passar för både vuxna och barn. Vi blev väldigt väl bemötta och fick lämna våra väskor och använda hotellets faciliteter efter utcheckning i väntan på flyget som gick på kvällen. Frukosten var väl värd den extra slanten man fick betala.

Das Hotel liegt am Eleftherios-Square gut eine halbe Stunde vom Busbahnhof entfernt. Auf Chanias Bürgersteigen ist es Mühsam einen Rollkoffer zu ziehen. Ein Taxi ist bequemer aber nicht zwingend notwendig.

consigliato vivamente

struttura accogliente, bellissima piscina sempre aperta, ottima disponibilità del personale. manca solo un'insegna sulla strada ad indicare la struttura dalla strada. ottima struttura (tutto ristrutturato a nuovo) per una vacanza a Chania non molto lontano dal bellissimo porto veneziano.

Hotel is very clean and nice, but the beds are very firm and the shower is very small. Despite this, I would still stay again.
