The property was beautifuly maintained.A gorgeous traditional building. The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast plentiful but the bread was tasteless . The hotel is somewhat outside of the old town so it's not suitable for anyone with mobility problems. A bus does run outside but it's a bit unreliable.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very nice hotel and the usual helpful Greek staff. If hotel is busy, the small breakfast area gets crowded. Fine if weather good and you can eat outside, but it was over 40c when we visited and people were staying inside. Three close and decent restaurants, otherwise 20mins stroll into town. Easy walk. The local neighbourhood is nice with its own small harbour. Would choose gain if passing through Chania.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Halepa Hotel. The moment I arrived, I was impressed by the hotel’s elegant neoclassical style, blending historical charm with modern comfort. The building itself is beautifully maintained, and the atmosphere inside feels warm, welcoming, and truly relaxing. The staff were exceptionally friendly and professional—always ready to assist with a smile. From the reception team to the breakfast service, everyone went out of their way to make my stay comfortable. The breakfast was delicious with a good variety, and the rooftop terrace with the Jacuzzi was a highlight, offering a perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring Chania. The location is ideal: the hotel is in a quiet neighborhood but still close to the Old Town and the main attractions. Having secure parking was a big plus, especially since I rented a car directly through the hotel. The car rental service was excellent—fast, easy, and stress-free. The vehicle was in perfect condition, fully insured, and came with unlimited mileage and 24-hour roadside assistance. Everything was clearly explained, with no hidden costs, which gave me real peace of mind. Having the car allowed me to explore the stunning beaches and villages of Crete at my own pace. Overall, Halepa Hotel exceeded my expectations. The combination of a charming hotel, outstanding staff, and hassle-free car rental makes it the perfect choice for anyone visiting Chania. I would definitely stay here again and highly recom

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
Hot tub wasn’t in service-wouldn’t have booked here if I’d known that. It was the only reason I’d paid extra with so many more affordable hotels in the area. Sauna didn’t work- wouldn’t have booked here if I’d known that. Wasn’t given any information about massage treatments- I didn’t bother asking after finding out about the hot tub and sauna. Air conditioning in my room didn’t work- wouldn’t even turn on. It was fairly clean and quiet which is one positive and breakfast was ok. But considering the price compared to other hotels closer to town, I’d stay elsewhere next time.

Nice hotel

Nice hotel, no complaints in that front. The reception didn’t greet passing customers which was little bit weird even if you had eye contact. I also left my key in the room and went to the reception. They opened my door without any further questions. What if that was not my room…? Security is important and it definately was a lapse in that.
