I spent nine days in total at the Porto Veneziano Hotel and was really pleased with my stay. I had one of the cheaper rooms but it was comfortable, clean, and it felt safe. The breakfasts were brilliant, sitting outside next to the harbour as the town awakens, really great! Lastly the staff, all were very friendly and keen to... More

This hotel offers very basic but nevertheless very good accommodation in Chania and is situated in a prime location by the old Venetian harbour. There was nothing fancy about my room and its furnishings, but the room was well-maintained and clean and, as a solo traveler, I thought it was quite spacious. Upon arrival staff at the reception desk were... More

Picture perfect location overlooking harbor, but just far enough away from nightlife bars and clubs to be peaceful at night. Very friendly and accommodating staff. We arrived very early in morning somewhat exhausted and they let us sleep in one of their other rooms while we were waiting for our rooms overlooking the harbor to become available. Also called archaeological... More

Excellent location. Right on the old harbor.. had a lovely time. The breakfast was one of the best I've had.. Note that the room and bathroom are quite small.. but we were out a lot and just used the rooms to crash.

Although the property is a little run down, it's Europe (so you find more of that just by virtue of the age of some of the properties) and its right on the sea (tougher environment). The rooms are smallish (Europe again - I took a superior double, which I can only imagine the tiny box the regular not a double... More

We arrived there without booking after a horrible experience at an alternate hotel in Chania. Peak season in Chania is not a great time to look for an unreserved room for a week with a sea view and a balcony but we were lucky to be looking for a suite and willing to spend a considerable amount of money for...

Visited Chania last year for business trip and chose Porto Veneziano because I read the reviews and viewed the relative photos. It seemed lovely and it was indeed lovely. Located in the heart of Chania's old port and within walking distance of Chania's centre, the hotel is really a fantastic place to stay when in Chania. Super clean rooms, quiet... More

I have read the other reviews and agree completely about the wonderful location but.there were some deficits which mean i would not recomend this hotel especially for a longer stay..We only stayed for 2 nights. They have 2 floors for smokers,5 floors altogether, which means that you have a high chance of being allocated one of these. Fortunately we had... More

• I had a rental car with no GPS and it was extremely difficult to find this hotel. I had to park and walk around the town until I could locate it on foot. When I got to reception (by foot), hot, tired & frustrated, I checked in and told them that I needed help driving the rental car closer.... More

Hotel is very old, bathroom is a hole in the wall. The view is extremely nice and is actually at the quieter end of the tourist area.
