“In the heart of Chania's Old Town, this meticulously restored Venetian building places you steps from the harbor, yet offers surprisingly peaceful rooms. I especially appreciate the attention to detail, from the Nespresso machines to the homemade breakfasts featuring local yogurt, creating a truly authentic experience. The rooftop terrace is a notable highlight, granting unrestricted views of the sea and the Venetian Harbour.”
