Kyriaki Hotel

Our family had a nightmare from the start of our holiday booking a villa that was not suitable for my 2 year old! In the middle of the first night we contacted this hotel and Joseph( the owner) responded straight away! He made us feel welcome from the start! And me as a normal paying customer on holiday thought you had to pay up front and be just another customer they want to take money off! I felt completely like I was family with this hotel! They go above and beyond to make you feel like you are welcome no matter how much you are spending! Joseph and his team work so hard to maintain the running off this hotel but what makes it the best holiday ever is that they are all just so caring and lovely.

A lovely place to stay. The grounds are beautifully kept, including a fabulous pool that is always spotlessly clean. The owner couldn't have been nicer. He was gentle, kind and always helpful. A lovely breakfast available as an extra. Would definitely recommend.

Hotel is located in good place. Couple minute walk to closest market, cafeteria for breakfast and places to eat. Also many beaches within walking distance and bus stops to Chania center are close. Bus line 21 easy to use and when you buy tickets from local market its only 1.10€ (From bus it's 2€). Hotel pool is also nice place to spend hot days. Hotel rooms are little outdated and aircon works only when you are in the room so it gets hot during the day and have to wait it to cool down. Hotel owner and other staff are really friendly and helpful, only negative is that there are not much staff so you may have to search if you need them and you may have to wait 30min your order from the pool bar. Hotel is really clean and rooms are cleaned every day.

The owner and his family was really helpful and made our visit very pleasant. Great pool area with one big pool with different depths and one infinity pool. Good location with a short walk to the beach. Grocery store and bus stop just 100-200 meter from the hotel. Bus to Chania center (bus 21 & 15) was fast and cheap.

We stayed there for six nights at the end of May 2023. The place is a nice and cozy little hotel located in a pretty quiet area near the Golden Beach. The owner is the most friendliest man on earth and the rest of the staff were also nice and friendly. It was easy to hop on the bus no. 21 from the nearest bus stop to get to Chania centre in 15 minutes. The local Golden Beach is also wonderful with its soft sand and fun waves. There's also a great and quiet restaurant across the street, called Sterna. Would definitely recommend for a couple for example.

Short story: we stayed at Kyriaki's for 5 days and it was a really pleasant stay. If you don't miss the buzz of the city center and don't need a lot of shops around, but some nice tavernas and a beach within reach, this may be a good choice for you. Long story: we checked in 2 hours late due to a late flight but the staff was there, near the pool, ready to welcome us, we had a reservation via booking and we payed upfront by card (with a promise to pay the extra €7.5 tax later with cash). We were given room 105, situated at floor level, deep in the exquisite and lush garden of the property. The staff was nice, they showed us to our room, explained how everything works and wished us a pleasant stay. The room was clean, with quite a big balcony (a table with an ashtray and two chairs) and a pretty view of the garden - palm trees, poplars and a fig tree near by. It had AC and a TV, two beds put together to form a quite spacious one, with very comfortable mattresses. Enough room for luggage. The bathroom was clean and had minimal toiletries (we mostly brought our own anyway). Nice cleaning services (our room was cleaned everyday while we were away, even though we left the "Do not disturb" sign when we left the room one day, and some other time when we were late sleeping we hung the sign again, and still someone entered the room, said "Sorry" and then briskly left and closed the door). We didn't get to use their pool (which was a back-up plan in case of bad weather) but we've been told that it's 2.7 m deep and one of the staff must be supervising when the pool is used by clients. Wi-fi is available, but the signal is pretty bad, we kind of had to use our data plan most of the time. You won't find the password in the room, you will find it at the reception. We found a sticker on the mirror in our room which stated "no food, no drinks", which made sense as they had a bar/restaurant near the pool and no fridge in the room, which we did find a bit odd (I think we never stayed in a place where we didn't have a mini fridge at least). A safe is provided in the closet, if you have valuables that need secured storage. As a location, is pretty close to a 24/7 supermarket (not your usual Synka or Sklavenitis, but had pretty much everything one needs). We chose it especially for the near-by beach Yannis (which is our favorite), situated at ~1.5 km (10-15 minutes of walking through a really beautiful and quiet neighborhood). We probably would have chosen a closer hotel if we found one, but Kyriaki checked enough boxes for us. A bus station is really close to Kyriaki, where one can hop in Bus 21 which takes you to city center and close to the Chania Bus Station. Tickets can be bought from the 24/7 supermarket (aforementioned). Enough tavernas, bars and restaurants near the beach. PROs: clean, with a pool as backup for bad weather or rough sea. Magnificent garden. Friendly staff. Good placement, close to bus station, close-ish to Lidl and Synka, close to non-stop
