Très satisfait pour mon choix d'hôtel que j'ai fait à Chania. Qualité/prix cela correspondait à mes attentes. Ma chambre était située dans une cour intérieure qui donne sur la Terrasse extérieur du Restaurant La Bohème. Très bon restaurant et très belle ambiance. Hôtel bien situé et tout près du port Vénitien

因為搭夜船在很早約8:00AM就到達Chania，但旅館主人居然可以讓我在這樣早的早上就讓我入住了！！讓我一個上午不至於流落街頭，非常非常謝謝這間旅館的幫助。旅館就位於主街中間街邊，位置相當優。旅館還招待ouzo酒及餅乾橄欖桿等小點心，very good。房間不大，但傢俱及裝潢看得出主人的用心和品味，窗外樹草綠意盎然，是一間不可多得的良好住宿經驗。

Boende med bra läge

Det här boendet är en typ av blandning mellan hotell och B&B. Det finns ingen reception så in- och utcheckning behöver arrangeras med ägarinnan. Rummen ligger också i ett bostadshus med vad det medför, bl.a. att det är relativt lyhört (både ut och mellan rummen). Med det sagt så är läget utmärkt, precis ovanför den venetianska hamnen på stadens huvudgata. Mitt rum var också smakfullt och personligt inrett med alla faciliteter, men något litet. Mycket bra kontakt med ägarinnan om frågor om boendet och aktiviteter i Chania.

Wonderful Hotel in Old Town Chania

Favela Boutique is a great choice. The property is located in Chania's old town, just minutes from the Venetian harbor. I arrived around 9:30 pm. I called the host and they met me at the property and made sure I was comfortable. The host was very accommodating, guiding me around the corner to a very nice restaurant. The location is excellent, right above an outstanding Gelato shop, very convenient! My overall experience was very good. I would definitely stay here again when in Chania.

Georgia made my stay at the Favela wonderful!

Favela Boutique is on Chalidon which is the Main Street in Chania Old Town and less than 5 minutes walking distance to the harbour and shops. I stayed with Georgia for 11 nights in October 2017 and had a wonderful visit. Georgia is attentive and so friendly offering to help with my itinerary, bus timetables, where to eat and what to visit and any questions I had! Travelling as a young girl on my own, having someone check I was ok, happy and eating well was very thoughtful and it was nice to know she was only a phone call away. My room was comfortable and always cleaned well by maid service - I especially loved the espresso machine! I hope I will be able to come back next year!

A perfect stay in Chania.

The accomodation is very cozy, daily cleaned and well furnished. Our room also had a balcony, in addition to the common terrace at the last floor. The owner is great, she provided us with tons of info and suggestions about restaurants, places and activities. On our arrival we found a welcome drink (raki). It's an excellent position to visit Chania (venetian old town is just around the corner) and all the region as it is very quick to get to the bus station (5min by walk). A/C appreciated during the hot cretan summer. Absolutely suggested!

Der Empfang war liebevoll, die Ausstattung etwas besonders, hier war ein kunstbegabter Mensch am Werk. ..Das Zimmer für eine Person war klein, hatte aber alles, was nötig ist. Die Lage ist super für shoppingsüchtige, mitten in Chania, und das ist auch der Nachteil, es ist halt laut. Wen das nicht stört, gerne buchen!!

Great service

We arrived very, very late to the hotel but informed Georgia about it. She was there all happy waiting for us. The welcome was great. she had some traditional olives, bread and raki waiting for us. Made us feel great after a very long travel and the airline loosing my bag... Goergia was super helpful when it came to getting my bag back, she did everything to help and was in touch with the airline sorting things out. The hotel is very cute and comfortable. There is also a fabulous/cafe/bar/restaurant right in the courtyard. It was all a great start to our Creete trip. We loved the place. The only downside is the parking that you have to find on the street or underground parking outside of the old citys walls. Then take a 5-10min walk to the property. Not a massive deal if you dont have a lot to carry. So come prepared! Old european cities are often like that. Thats why we love them!
