Top New Town Hotel Reviews

Menta City Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was truly amazing. It was our favourite stay on Chania. The staff are so kind. They recommended wonderful spots for travelling near Rethymno, and for delicious food in town. The breakfast was delicious! Everything was fresh, healthy, and homemade by the lovely staff. There was so much variety. One of the best hotel breakfasts I’ve had. They also offer food and drinks at their on site cafe. The smoothies were SO good, especially poolside. The amenities are top tier. From the big pool, gym, and even a spa. The room was so clean, modern, spacious, and the view from the balcony of Rethymno was stunning. The parking on site is very helpful but fills up quickly. My only regret is not staying here longer than two days! I would love to come back, and I highly recommend Menta City for a relaxing, welcoming and overall amazing stay."

Elina Hotel Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"I don't buy into the negative reviews about Elina Hotel and Apartments. These are likely outdated, as we spent 8 nights here and didn't experience any problems. The superior apartment was bright, spacious and clean, with a good shower and good air conditioning. Despite being next to a busy road, the windows had good sound protection, so we were not bothered by any noise from outside. The reception staff were always polite and helpful. Our room was cleaned every 2 or 3 days, and it was easy to change towels or top up on bathroom accessories between cleans. The location is absolutely ideal, being 5 minutes walk from a superb beach and 5 minutes walk from the start of the Old Town, there are dozens of local amenities, including supermarkets, bakeries, cafes and bars, all within easy walking distance. I would definitely stay here again."

Steris Elegant Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We were so pleased with our stay at Steris Elegant Beach Hotel! We arrived past midnight on our first day because of a delayed flight and the staff, especially Dino, was so welcoming and helpful, which was a great start to our stay. We loved having the beach right out front of our hotel, and the beach service with chairs, umbrellas, food and drinks was fantastic. The rooms are also very clean, the ac works great and the location is near the old town, supermarkets, tourist and local shops. Overall super recommend!!"

Bio Suites Hotel

8/10 Good

"One of the reasons we selected this property was because the listing said parking was included. This was not the case. We arrived and double parked on the street while asking where the parking was, and the person at the front desk was shocked we thought there was parking. They were helpful and directed us to a nearby lot with free parking that was otherwise full but we were fortunate to pull up just as someone else was leaving. We were able to park our car there for free for 2 nights without issue. The property was conveniently located. The pool is set in what is similar to a courtyard surrounded by buildings. It's a nice amenity to have but not the most scenic place to relax. The breakfast had a great variety of options and variety from day to day. The elevator was small and stalled often. We opted to take the stairs."
