The hosts at Nostos Hotel were immensely kind and helpful, sourcing trip info, timetables, and booking taxis. The building was full of character and beautifully decorated. Location was incredible with gorgeous balcony views (being on the harbour front meant there was noise into the evening, but the vista across the water was unbeatable). Thank you for a great stay.

We Loved this hotel! The owner was very nice and Aria was so fantastic to give us advice on beaches, and assure us that the drive was easy! Thank you, Aria! The hotel is SO comfortable with excellent AC and is located on the cutest street / pathway in Chania. Note: we knew nothing about parking so we parked in the closest spot we could find, walked to the hotel to check in, then reparked at a dirt parking lot not too much farther (that we knew was legal). Easy!

The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The property is in the perfect location to see the old town, right out the front door is a main street filled with restaurants and shops and the windows of a lot of the rooms face the famous harbor. The rooms and bathrooms are a touch rustic, but the hotel is still beautiful.

We loved being right in the old town of Chania just one street back from the sea. The room provided all we need and the Hotel had a rooftop sitting spot with an excellent old port view. We didn't like that we could hear our neighbors; especially the noisy child...

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The location is fantastic, right on the front at the old harbour. The staff were friendly and helpful with rubbish bins emptied daily and bed linen and towels changed regularly. The building dates from 1400’s and it’s quant and quirky which we loved. We chose a sea front room with a balcony and were delighted with the fab view. The only disappointment was the Wi-Fi as it wasn’t dependable. However, all of the tavernas and restaurants that we visited had free Wi-Fi. We intend to return to Chania and NOSTOS will be our first choice.

Charming hotel and a lovely room. Very helpful staff. Some noise from the restaurants at the pier at night, so if you sleep light, probably look somewhere else. It didn't bother us.

We stayed for 5 nights. Pros: The hotel is located very central. All the shops/restaurants are around. The staff at the reception are very helpful from the instructions how to get there and booking some excursion. Cons: the rooms needs a lot of TLC. The room was never cleaned, not the floor neither the bathroom. Not even changing the bedsheets, only the towels. The toilet isn't flushing at all. The walls seem like they are made of paper, you can hear everything from the other rooms, the reception and everything from the street and the restaurants (literally every conversation).

This is a lovely traditional older property - lots of stairs, no lifts/elevators. A rooftop open air lounge area to enjoy the views. Close to pretty much everything in old Chania. The harbor and all the shopping and restaurants you could ever want are literally steps away. Charming, helpful and accommodating staff. Highly Recommended!
