The host Irene was fabulous, the perfect balance of presence/friendliness/hospitality with a personal touch. The property is a historical wonder as one might expect so it definitely lived up to expectations. Peaceful, well-maintained and a welcome respite from the heat (extremely thick walls)/crowds yet so very accessible with a stunning location. Bathroom amenities included products from Apitiva - a great brand from Greece based on natural products which was a real treat as were the delicious breakfasts (option to choose on situ or at a local bistro/restaurant). As my friend and I booked the 2 bed apartment on the ground floor which came with a private covered outdoor seating area come patio, we opted for having breakfast there so had a lovely view of the garden/cloisters.

Having to leave on departure day!

We had an incredible stay at this property. Our host was welcoming, kind and attentive to our requests. The room was spacious, well appointed and in an incredible location. It was truly such a privilege to stay in an historic property such as this. The breakfasts made by our host were lovely -- exceptional Cretan food, thoughtfully prepared. Would recommend without hesitation.

Nothing -- we loved our stay here.

Really liked the hospitality of Irene. She called to confirm the booking and was very helpful and checked on us throughout. The location was excellent. We were able to walk everywhere in old chania and that made a huge difference. The bathroom was exceptionally big and two people could take bath simultaneously. The breakfast was excellent all 3 days. She allowed us to check out late, gave us beach towels and reserved a sea facing table for our breakfast at the cafe. We enjoyed spending time with her. There were puzzles in the room and an old vinyl player that my husband enjoyed.

The only thing that i did not like was the room was warm and the AC was inadequate. It never cooled the room down to the degree I would have liked. I like to sleep cold and there was no fan and I felt warm all the 3 nights. In Irene's defense, I did not tell her that which was my problem. We were just in a hurry in the mornings to get to our activities and if I would have told her, i'm sure she would have fixed it but that was what made it less than perfect for me.

Tucked away in the charming old town, this hotel is a true haven of historical charm and peacefulness. While private parking comes at a fee, the vibrant garden with its insightful exhibition on Chania's rich history and architecture awaits within. A delightful surprise was the modern suite's bath with invigorating power jets. The upper-level bedroom treated us to captivating views of the calm harbor, and the hosts' exceptional efforts to accommodate our last-minute requests truly made our stay exceptional. Thank you Irene!!!

The suite is in an old restored monastery and beautifully done. It’s near the harbor and close to shopping and restaurants. Parking is very difficult to find but if you use a taxi or Uber, it’s a great location. The host was charming and very helpful and the room was very clean and spacious.

The bed and pillows were too firm for our liking but might suit other guests.

Amazing location! Beautiful building. Unique and had character. Would stay here again.

The bathroom and kitchen area in this room is uncomfortably warm. However the AC was fantastic in the main 2 level bedroom/sitting area. Super cute outdoor space overlooking the courtyard. Great ambiance.

My wife and I stayed at this wonderful place for 2 nights. This is one of the most special accommodation sites I have known in Crete and in Greece in general. The service was excellent and the pleasantness and relaxation that surround the place are priceless.

Everything was very good

The location is perfect, the view is outstanding and Irene made the stay a resounding success! You will not find someone so kind and attentive at the big hotels. She made our stay during our wedding weekend comfortable and easy.

The only challenge is the stairs but view makes them worth every step.

Enough cannot be said about the wonderful Host for this location. Hearing about the History of the location and the building was an amazing plus to our stay and the view is beyond beautiful. The views from this most magical place are beyond words or even pictures, you must see them with your own eyes! Thank you for the experience!

This was our second visit attracted by its exquisite location Irene is a very helpful owner with welcome refreshments and advice on restaurants and attractions. Free easy parking nearby

While it is an apartment, preparing food is not allowed and there are no facilities to cook apart from a coffee machine. This is clearly stated on booking so not unexpected, It’s not an issue if you plan to eat out and there are many excellent restaurants nearby.
