Amazing room with luxuries I have not experienced before. The steam shower and bath were amazing. The room was more spacious than what I would have thought from the pictures.

Well situated, modern, clean and comfortable apt

Very quiet location but very well located in old port. Room was modern, clean and nice firm mattress. The steam hamman in the bathroom was a bonus. Check-in staff brought me to the apt :)

Very comfortable room in a central location while it was quiet outside at night.

Very central location, with only a short walk to the port. The room was a good size with a separate ensuite. There was a common kitchen area with various items of crockery required for breakfast. The cleaning service was excellent.

Room is at the city center (Chora) and 7min walking distance to the buses and taxis. Bed is comfy and there is also a sauna in the bathroom which is great. The host was quite helpful giving us tips and allowed an early check in.

The place totally exceeded my expectations. Brilliantly decorated room, bright clean. In the old town but in a exceptionally quiet place. What I like the most that there was a kitchenette but in the corridor and not in the room spoiling its beauty. There are tree rooms with a self entrance but check-in and out is performed in the near by hotel reception. For those with bulky luggage could expect some steep stair but wide enough. I enjoyed the breakfast which basic but good quality and delicious and worth the money. My opinion is that management of this chain of premises/hotel is really very good. I especially appreciate the helpful and sincere approach of the kind receptionist Elefteria.

A Charming Haven in the Heart of Old Town Chania

During my recent visit to Chania, Crete, I had the pleasure of staying at Elia Portou Residence. I was captivated by its delightful rooms, luxurious bathrooms, and the added bonus of a private hamam. Located in the heart of the historic Old Town, this charming residence truly exceeded my expectations in terms of both comfort and cleanliness. Room and Bathroom (★★★★★): The rooms at Elia Portou Residence were a true delight. They were elegantly decorated with a perfect blend of traditional and modern elements. The attention to detail was evident, from the comfortable furnishings to the tasteful decor. The bed was plush and inviting, providing a restful night's sleep. The room also boasted ample space, ensuring a comfortable stay. The highlight of my experience was the luxurious bathroom. Impeccably designed, it was a haven of relaxation. The fixtures were top-notch, and the walk-in shower was spacious and rejuvenating. Additionally, the inclusion of a private hamam added an extra touch of luxury, allowing me to indulge in a truly unique experience. Position in the Heart of Old Town Chania (★★★★★): One of the most significant advantages of Elia Portou Residence is its exceptional location. Situated in the heart of Old Town Chania, the residence is surrounded by an enchanting maze of narrow streets, historic buildings, and charming shops. Exploring the vibrant atmosphere of the old town was a breeze, as everything was just a stone's throw away from the residence. Whether it was wandering through the lively market or strolling along the picturesque Venetian Harbor, every major attraction was within easy reach. Cleanliness (★★★★★): The cleanliness of Elia Portou Residence was exemplary. From the moment I stepped into the property, I was greeted with a refreshing sense of cleanliness and tidiness. The rooms were immaculate, and the housekeeping staff ensured that everything was in pristine condition throughout my stay.
