We had the room with a small balcony overlooking the harbour. I think it was too expensive ( it is owned by an Athenian, perhaps this influences the price ?), but it was delightful. The staff were exceptionally welcoming & friendly & always willing to answer questions & suggest eating places. Guests are no longer expected to order breakfast the... More

We didn't get to stay in the hotel itself, but we ate two meals at the sidewalk cafe run out of the lobby of the hotel. The food is local and delicious, and the ouzo really mellows a tired traveler after a day of sightseeing. The view is good too - unobstructed view of the small boat channel near the... More

My wife and I stayed at the Alcanea for a week in early April 2013 and enjoyed every minute of our stay. The Hotel is situated in the North-West corner of the old harbour and has stacks of character and charm. The staff are extremely welcoming and helpful, taking time to sit down with you and suggest places to visit,... More

Wonderful place to stay in Chania. Close to the harbour and the old town. Owners and all the staff made us feel welcome and were keen to ensure our stay was perfect. The hotel has been tastefully and beautifully restored. Room was well appointed and spotlessly clean with a fab shower. The only place to stay in Chania!.

We stayed at the Alcanea foe my birthday once again a Christmas present from a dear friend. We stayed in the same room and the welcome could not have been warmer. Fantastic break with excellent breakfast sitting outside in the glorious Sunshine in March. We only live 22kms away but the stay to enjoy the city at night is fabulous.... More

We were here on our honeymoon in 2012. This hotel is just amazing all around. Their recommendation on restaurants is awesome. The people are really nice. We had a great view from our window on the second floor. The room is as big as hotels in the US, nice shower.

This beautiful boutique hotel has a perfect setting on the harbour at Chania and is a brilliantly converted historical building. Our flight was diverted and we arrived two hours late. The staff at the Alcanea not only rearranged the taxi to collect us but also stayed late to welcome us and offer us food on arrival - at midnight. Our... More

This hotel is one of the finest places we have ever been. The staff is nice and helpfull, breakfast is great and the building is really special. Alcanea is a... More

it takes less than five minutes, after you enter, to understand how pleasant your experience will be. The place is an historical venetian mansion, in the hearth of Chania, adjoining the Naval Museum. The owners took care of any detail to make you confortable, and to this they add the natural tendency of greeks to be friendly and warm. Breakfast... More
