Why so chic?
Why travel experts chose this hotelChic Treats
Only when you book with ChicSet right on the waterfront in the heart of the picturesque Old Town – Alcanea Boutique Hotel is a luxurious pick for your stay in Chania and could not be a better base from which to explore.
This beautiful Venetian building has been carefully restored and renovated to offer eight elegant rooms that boast a tasteful blend of traditional and contemporary, with warm-coloured walls, rug-strewn floors and pictures from local artists.
Reception is not manned 24-hours a day but the lovely staff couldn’t be more attentive with fantastic recommendations for things to do, see and eat. It’s worth noting that the hotel is closed between November and April.
Dining
A generous made-to-order breakfast is served out on the terrace at the Café & Wine Bar overlooking the water. This is a popular spot with guests and locals alike, serving a light menu throughout the day along with local wines, cocktails and beers.
You will need to head out for dinner but are spoilt for choice on great restaurants nearby. Tamam is a particular favourite just a 2-minute walk from the hotel.

Activities
Set in the Turkish part of Chania’s Old Town, the hotel is centrally located to enjoy the area’s best restaurants, shops and sunsets, not to mention the Nautical Museum next door.
If you are here for a few days, we’d recommend hiring a car to get out and explore the area and beaches.

Alcanea Boutique Hotel not only met expectations, it exceeded them. This boutique property is ideally located along Chania’s Old Venetian Harbor, offering sweeping views of the sea and the Venetian Lighthouse. It offers convenient access to the area’s best restaurants and shops, which can be easily reached on foot. I loved the boho-chic design of the hotel and immediately felt at home here. Our room was enormously spacious with impressive high ceilings and large windows. It felt like my husband and I were sleeping in a palace from another era, which made for a truly special stay. Eleni and Eva of the hotel staff were friendly, accessible, and accommodating throughout our entire stay. Breakfast is tasty and can be enjoyed outside for prime views of the harbor. If you’re looking to experience the heart and soul of Chania, look no further than Alcanea.

This hotel has an intimate, artistic and relaxed atmosphere. This is achieved through the bohemian patio with large hanging trees, decorative shisha pipes, cruiser bikes and Moroccan cushions. There was even a mini library in our room! Service is organised and efficient. Apart from one irritable waiter, the staff were kind and attentive, making your well being their priority. Breakfasts were authentic and original, serving many traditional Cretan dishes cooked with a homely sense of care and pride. Delicious cocktails were also conjured up by a generous bar tender who gave us three on the house. After your stay here, you will want to come back
