  : I did not have breakfast but the location is excellent. It was great that I could leave my luggage until evening as my flight was at 9 oclock.

  : Our multi-generational family of 5 booked all 4 suites for a week and it could not have been more ideal. The rooms were large, tastefully designed, and clean. The showers were modern with great water pressure (not always the case on our travels). We were surprised to discover a rooftop deck, with the nice added touch of racks and clothespins for drying clothes in the Crete sunshine. The hotel is perfectly located with shops and restaurants and the waterfront all within easy walking distance. There is a coin-operated laundry right around the corner. The place would be perfect if there was a kitchen, but there is a small fridge in each room for our purchases of the delicious local cheeses and wine. Polixeny is a kind, generous host who made us feel relaxed and happy from the moment we arrived.

  : Location, staff, value for money.
  : Albeit the building is really solid its somehow poorly soundproof towards other rooms.

  : Room was very spacious and comfortable. Toiletries were provided and bathroom was nice. Polixeny herself was a wonderful host. Internet was good. Very close to great restaurants and attractions. Not far from airport.
  : There was a hall window above the door and a very bright exit sign inside the door of the room that made it hard to sleep without a mask. There is free parking right in front of the property if you're lucky, and you have about an inch of clearance to either side going down the street as well as railings that will block your passenger door so bravery is required. No elevator for luggage.

  : I have been to this place a few times. It is perfectly located and staff is lovely. I love the decoration and the space. We got a bottle of wine and they offer you some coffee and croissant as well for day 1 and water.
  : However, many boutique hotels are now in Chania and this one has some details that in relation to the price and the boutique name could be improved. Bed mattress and pillows arent really at level of boutique hotel. They arent very comfortable and the bedding didnt cover well the mattress so we ended up sleeping over the mattress at times which isnt covered by a protective sheet.There is an emergency light in the room that makes difficult to sleep as too light. There could be more toiletries and shower was not too hot or powerful. Unfortunately the building wood cracks too much and if not on the second floor it can be difficult to sleep from other noises in the rooms.

  : The location is excellent. The host is very pleasant and accommodating. The rooms are spacious and so is the bathroom. The building has been recently renovated and is well kept and clean. Exterior soundproofing is very good. The A/C is powerful and very quiet. Even though its on the second floor, the stairs are wide and easy to navigate.
  : Some poor design choices, like loud bathroom extractor fan, lights that shine into the bedroom and a window shutter that grates on the sill which is hard to close and in the process wakes up the entire neighbourhood. Also this is the only place we have stayed that doesnt provide paper tissues boxes, so either you buy your own or you resort to using toilet paper
