The location was perfect—just a short walk to Chania’s downtown area with great restaurants, coffee spots, and gelato shops. We had an amazing time staying at the villas. Our room had beautiful water views, and breakfast was freshly cooked to our preferences. We truly enjoyed our stay.

This was a wonderful property in old town. It was so fun to step & walk the old town or view the bay from the terrace. We had such a wonderful week there & would go back there in a heartbeat.

We got the double standard room with sea view, and it was an awesome experience. The room itself had such cute furniture and spectacular views of the harbor. We had private patio in front of our room (when booking we thought it was a common area, but thankfully it was not!). There were no doors to the patio, but there were a pair of chairs and a small coffee table in the patio which we were allowed to use by jumping from the window. The staff was very friendly. Overall a great experience, would definitely recommend staying at captain Vasilis hotel.

This was a very quaint and well located boutique style hotel. I believe it was rated 3 stars on line and nothing super fancy - but it was authentic. The rooms were clean and the view of the harbor from my room was stunning. It was great in the morning being able to open the window and watch the shops and restaurants coming alive below.
The thing that made this hotel and my stay incredible were the staff though. I arrived late (few late running flights) after reception has closed - but called the number they provided and the person answered right away and provided me the security code to get into the hotel lobby. Waiting on the reception desk was my room key and note welcoming me and directing me to my room upstairs.
The next morning I met Konstantina who effectively runs the hotel during the day - everything from reception to setting up breakfast. Breakfast is included in the room and consisted of pastries, fruit and Greek yogurt as fresh orange juice, coffee/espresso, and made to order eggs cooked by Konstantina. She was very helpful and very charming in providing me with ideas for exploring the town. She definitely made the stay that much more enjoyable.
Another great thing about the hotel is they allowed me to store my luggage there on my last day as I had a later flight out and almost a full day left in town. I was able to come and go as needed on that last day. The hotel was just a short 200 meters from the taxi pickup/drop off and even less distance to the harbor.

Hotel is beautiful, has a lot of old character, but with good plumbing/amenities, exceptionally clean, and in about the best location in the heart of the old town. Staff were friendly, reserved but very helpful when asked. Chania is a world apart, relaxing and well with a visit.

A wonderful stay all round, location amazing, very comfortable bed, really good shower and good breakfast.
Above all both Vasilis and Alexandra were wonderful hosts, checked local buses for me, booked my trip, nothing was to much, lots of advice about the best ways to get to places - definitely recommend it.

A fabulous quaint hotel, Vasilis is both accommodating and friendly, and a top man with authentic Greek recommendations for restaurants and excursions etc .
It is also extremely central, a one minute walk from the old harbour area.
I can't recommend it enough.

Excellent stay
Very beautiful romantic room with sea view, view at the old venetian port. Large comfortable room, bathroom and bed. Owner (young Vasilis) present and involved in day to day run of this little hotel. Breakfast was simple, but very clean and pleasant. Our room was in a corner of the hotel so the wifi was so-so. A bit noisy some nights (it may be just this room, not all) due to its location right on the main alley of the port. But overall, an excellent impression. The staff was also excellent, nice and very responsive.

Der Vorteil ist gleichzeitig der Nachteil: Die Lage direkt am venezianischen Hafen.
Nur 6 Zimmer, in einem 400 Jahre alten Haus, ordentlich ausgestattet, auch mit neuer Klimaanlage.
Eine tolle Aussicht, tolle Atmosphäre, von der Dachterrasse eine tolle Atmosphäre.
Das bedeutet aber auch:
Zugang durch die engen Gassen der Altstadt, keine Zufahrt mit dem Auto. Parken im öffentlichen Raum/an Straßen, so dass man mit dem Gepäck unter Umständen relativ weit zu Fuß laufen muss.
Nachts ist es, zumindest im Sommer, von dem Treiben am gut besuchten Hafen, ziemlich geräuschvoll. Die Holz-Schlagläden dämpfen zwar etwas, man darf aber nicht empfindlich sein, unbedingt mit offenem Fenster schlafen wollen, - oder man feiert einfach mit. Kann aber bis 3 Uhr in der Nacht gehen…
Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, gibt gute Tipps für Restaurants und Ausflüge in und um Chania!
Das Frühstück ist „klein“, aber vollständig: verschiedene Kaffee oder Tee, frisch gepresster Orangensaft, diverse frisch zubereitete Eier, Brot, Wurst, Käse, Joghurt, frisches Obst, Cerejalien…. Alles da.
Besonderen Dank an Konstantina, die leider nur vorübergehend (als Studentin in den Ferien) dort arbeitet.
