The Alcanea hotel is a most unique property. It is decorated in a way that emphasizes the 500 year old fortress it is a part of. The bed was amazingly comfortable, with lovely bedding. It is situated perfectly with wonderful views, and great walks. The breakfasts were delicious! We enjoyed the Cretan foods. The staff are very kind! Eva always had time to chat and give us ideas of where to go and what to do. Georgia served us breakfast every morning. We enjoyed her very much. Our cleaning lady, was also a gem! We will plan to go back again! Enjoyed every minute!!

Beautiful 16th century villa overlooking the port!
Loved the hotel! Excellent location on the quiet end of the Ventian port. Beautiful view over the bay. Feels like staying in a small castle, beautiful decor with modern twist. Staff so friendly, offers many of their personal favorites for restaurants and bars. Breakfast is fabulous! Best eggs I have ever had (Chef said the secret is in the fresh olive lol…), 5 stars and can’t wait to visit again. Thank you

We absolutely loved the Alcanea Boutique Hotel! It is located toward the end of the harbor in Old Town, a perfect location from which to explore the charming area. Our hosts, Nikos and Eva, were most welcoming. Our room was nothing short of spectacular--spacious and beautifully decorated. Comfy bed, wonderful shower, amazing view. The breakfast, too, was outstanding. There really aren't enough stars to indicate how wonderful this place is. Needless to say, the Alcanea is highly recommended!

Staying inside a 500 year old historical building is an experience of its own! High 4-5 meter ceilings, beautiful views. Furnished with taste, and you get normal Wi-Fi and modern comfort including AC. Eva and Petros were very welcoming and eager to please, even at low season they were just a call away. Breakfast served at the table in an outdoor cafe. Beware there is no lift here if you have problems with steps. Free parking within a few minutes walk.

Our room was charming and wonderful with high ceilings and a balcony with a great view. Eva was very sweet and attentive. The location is perfect being just at the end of the harbor so it’s easy to walk to all the great sights but not right in the middle of the noisy parts. Breakfast was good. The only bad thing was parking. GPS navigation sent us to dead end streets. Eva had emailed me instructions on where to park but my cell phone died so were using my husbands. We called and she recommended one spot but the lot was full so we ended up parking at another spot which was a 10 minute walk away. Not a big deal but hard to do lugging our luggage.

This is a good location to be in for the historic district. And the inn is quiet which was great. Also they included a delicious breakfast and the service was very good. However, our room was crazy small and the sheets on the bed were like newspaper. The air conditioning worked well so that was helpful. But the mattress was not good and they really should use better/softer bedding. The bathroom was quite nice and I liked their shampoos and soaps. But there was a bad smell in the room — not sure what it was. I would not stay here again but I also did not like the historic district as it is full of tourists and tourist restaurants with terrible and expensive food. (The breakfast at hotel was excellent)

Service above and beyond.
A 500 year old building does have its limits but the Alcanea is well worth the effort. The staff went above and beyond to make us comfortable. The breakfast was tasty and served with a smile. The bed was comfortable and the room was quiet. The only minor complaint is the hot water was very patchy and the stairs are very steep. That isn’t surprising with the age of the building. A perfect place from which to explore Chania.

This hotel is in one of the most historic buildings in Chania and in perhaps the best location in Chania opposite the lighthouse on the old harbour. It feels like you are stepping back in time but the excellent service from the hotel team is very much 21st century.

A fantastic building in a fantastic location. Expertly restored, great amenities. We stayed on the top floor - the view of the Venetian Harbor from the balcony Is very hard to beat anywhere in the world for this price. Breakfasts are sumptuous. Aliki and Eva answered promptly all of our questions and we had a lot. Don’t worry that you can’t drive up to the hotel door: we rented a car and were always able to find a parking spot nearby.
