Located in the middle of the old town on a street without traffic. Last floor has only 2 rooms and great terace - try to book a room there. Free parkings are 5 and 10 minutes away. Do not book breakfast - it's better tohave breakfast in the nearest cafe in the morning.

We needed a hotel in Chania for two nights at the end of a fortnight in Crete because we were flying out of Chania airport. We wanted to be in the midst of the Venetian old town, near the harbour and accessible by car just to drop off the luggage. El Greco appeared to fit all these requirements and so... More

Somehowe I made a mistake filling in our arrival date - the same day I made the reservation, meaning the next day - and even though I immediately got an email back asking what our time of arrival would be, I still not noticed my failure. When we arrived the next day it took some time to figure things out... More

Though the staff is very friendly and the location very good (old town)I can't say that we would go back or recommend this hotel. We requested double beds but nothing. We requested 2nd floor rooms but nothing again. The balcony of the room faced the wall and that was extremely depressing!Only good thing was the bakery across the street! I... More

We have stayed here in the family room with our 2 boys and have loved our stay. The staff are very friendly, the hotel is very nice and clean and the location is fantastic. I will recommend this hotel to all my friends. Thank you to all staff for a lovely stay.

Great location, clean & comfortable rooms, and a GREAT location make El Greco the place to say in Chania. I'm a Greek-American who's made many trips to Chania and have paid a great deal for a lot less. So glad to have found El Greco. I've even recommended it to a number of friends and family traveling to Chania, and... More

If you do decide to stay here PLEASE do not stay in a ground floor room. We had an awful time in this hotel. The room is dark and dingy. The bathroom small. Crap towels. Rubbish pillows. But the worst thing was the noise from reception. The breakfast room was next to our room and we were awoken early both... More

We stayed for 3 nights at El Greco in September and liked it. You have to accept that what you are getting is a small (approx. 24 rooms) Cretan family run hotel, squeaky clean with friendly & helpful English speaking staff and situated on one of the nicest pedestrianised streets in Old Chania. It is not a bland businessman's hotel... More

This little hotel is wonderfully located close to the Venetian Harbour in Chania. Set in a pretty and quiet street, it is only a 2 min walk from the harbour and a 10 - 15min walk to the small beach. The staff are friendly and the rooms basic and clean. However it is not as advertised on their website -... More

Amazing location, in the heart of the old town, but also closer to the beach as well (beach was a good 15min walk) staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms were lovely, old fashioned, but suited the town. If you're going to be out and about everyday and need basic accommodation in a good area this hotel is for you!
