Nostos

Even though it is not "perfect", I absolutely loved this hotel! It is a small boutique hotel ideally situated on Chania's old harbour. Rooms are full of charm and of good size, you are in the middle of the action, and views are fabulous. 

The nature of the hotel comes with its own challenges, and perhaps this is what I should start with:

- if you travel with large luggage, beware that the hotel has no lift and stairs are quite steep, so if so, you may prefer to ask for a room on the 1st floor. Some rooms also have internal mezzanines. 
- Wifi is really hit and miss
- As other reviewers mentioned, it can be hard to get hot water and the system is fragile so that one morning there was none at all and they had to call a technician to fix it
- The area is pedestrian - about 10 minutes (leisurely) walk to the bus station and the nearest road so best for people who like walking.

Having said that, none of this bothered me personally. I loved my room and its decor, I found the bed really comfortable (though pillows were really hard), I loved the location, and the staff were lovely. There is a roof terrace with a view to the harbour, a mini fridge in the room if you like to keep some food, and everything was clean and fresh. 

I'll definitely be back!

A wonderful little hotel

I will knock off some stars here for something really fundamental.
We stayed for 3 nights.
The hotel is very nice and charming itself. Located in the heart of action in the Chanias old town. We have got a nice room facing the harbour, with a little balcony. I was concerned with the night at night since the harbour area is full of restaurants and bars. But to our surprise, it was ok. We could sleep just fine. 
The room itself  was of course an oldie but this is pretty normal for such kind of establishment.
The staff was also very polite and helpful with suggestions and information.
We didn't try any meals in the property.
The only complaint we have is with water in the shower. The first day we managed to have a shower, albeit waiting for some time for hot water to appear. On the last day however, we waited in vain. Hot water simply was not there. As we were checking out imminently we didn't raise it to hotel. 
PS: we also asked for a late check out till 5-6pm and the receptionist advised that it would cost 80euros. We opted out and stayed in another hotel close to the port for fraction of that.

Perfectly located hotel with a fundamental flaw. 

This original authentic Venetian home has been turned into one of the best hotel locations in Chania. Our room with balcony looked straight out onto old harbour. This hotel is not for those who want the 5 star, fluffy towels & chocolate on pillow experience. But if it's about location and atmosphere & being in the heart of a most historical  & beautiful city port in Crete this place could be for you for you. Warning the best room does have stairs !

Step back in time

The location of the hotel is great. One block
from the harbour. They have a very nice roof top terrace with view of the harbour. The room was one main room and the beds on a loft upstairs. The bathroom was very small. The kitchen facilities were basic. The service was good. If you come during the day it is about 5-10min walk to the closest car road. If you leave In the morning the taxi can stop 50min away
