Top Old Venetian Harbor Hotel Reviews

Hyperion City Hotel

Hyperion City Hotel

8/10 Good
"The hotel was mostly great! Good location - close to chania without being right in the old town. We had a hire car so we were able to park right on the street outside usually. The staff could be a bit friendlier, I found some of them to be somewhat rude and dismissive of our concerns. The air conditioning needs maintenance. We raised it wasn’t working which was basically dismissed by the receptionist. She checked it herself and made her own confirmation that it was fine?? The air con literally had an error code saying it needed maintenance. We had it set at 16 degrees the entire time and I can tell you did not get below 21/22 at any point. This meant it took ages for the room to cool down. This was a bit disappointing because the rest of the hotel was good"

"Excellent location to the Bus Station & City Centre. Although we were late due to our flight, our host Diana, waited up for us & showed us to our room. Room was a good size & had everything we needed for the one night stop over. Beds were comfy & bathroom was good. Balcony overlooked a large court with surrounding buildings a good distance away, which did not affect our sleep."

8/10 Good
"Hotel is querky and full of character all about the location in the heart of the old town surrounded by shops,bars and restaurants. You need to be able to carry your luggage as the taxi can only drop you outside the old town area and you have to walk to the hotel and with no lift again you need to carry your luggage up the stairs. But if you want to go on holiday and be in the heart of a Greek old town we would really recommend this lovely hotel. Also the hotel is run by a local family that have owned it for a long time and go out of the way to ensure you have a nice holiday."

"Clean nice hotel. We were lucky to get a spot for our rental car with the hotel, but the space is very limited and likely needs to be arranged beforehand. This hotel location is ideal. It is on the edge of the old town - it is still fully accessible by car or taxi, yet close enough to walk to any areas of interest."
