Wonderful Hotel in Old Town Chania
Favela Boutique is a great choice. The property is located in Chania's old town, just minutes from the Venetian harbor. I arrived around 9:30 pm. I called the host and they met me at the property and made sure I was comfortable. The host was very accommodating, guiding me around the corner to a very nice restaurant. The location is excellent, right above an outstanding Gelato shop, very convenient! My overall experience was very good. I would definitely stay here again when in Chania.

Georgia made my stay at the Favela wonderful!
Favela Boutique is on Chalidon which is the Main Street in Chania Old Town and less than 5 minutes walking distance to the harbour and shops. I stayed with Georgia for 11 nights in October 2017 and had a wonderful visit. Georgia is attentive and so friendly offering to help with my itinerary, bus timetables, where to eat and what to visit and any questions I had! Travelling as a young girl on my own, having someone check I was ok, happy and eating well was very thoughtful and it was nice to know she was only a phone call away. My room was comfortable and always cleaned well by maid service - I especially loved the espresso machine! I hope I will be able to come back next year!

Great service
We arrived very, very late to the hotel but informed Georgia about it. She was there all happy waiting for us. The welcome was great. she had some traditional olives, bread and raki waiting for us. Made us feel great after a very long travel and the airline loosing my bag... Goergia was super helpful when it came to getting my bag back, she did everything to help and was in touch with the airline sorting things out. The hotel is very cute and comfortable. There is also a fabulous/cafe/bar/restaurant right in the courtyard. It was all a great start to our Creete trip. We loved the place. The only downside is the parking that you have to find on the street or underground parking outside of the old citys walls. Then take a 5-10min walk to the property. Not a massive deal if you dont have a lot to carry. So come prepared! Old european cities are often like that. Thats why we love them!

Amazing!
Amazing double space room. Warm owners. Extraordinary decoration. Very boutique hotel located at one of the most central roads of Chania old town, but quiet! Welcome traditional Cretan raki drink and crackers. Espresso machine at the very "cosy" living room. We arrived at a day with heavy rain and they even placed two large umbrellas in our room!

Good value, clean and comfortable.
The room was well-equipped, clean and comfortable. I slept well and enjoyed working at the desk by the window in the morning. It was very close to the waterfront and all Chania's tourist attractions.

Boutique Hotel In Perfect Location
I booked this hotel for a family trip with my wife and two little boys and was pleased that the room was even more impressive than the pictures suggested. Very spacious, modern and clean, a private balcony with a great view, and shared second story patio. The location is ideal as it is in the heart of the old town and is a 2 minute walk to the famous old Venetian harbour. It is ideal because you are an arm's length away from the action but can escape the noise and late night music that plagues many of the hotels situated in the port. Georgia was our concierge and guide helping us any way she could to ensure our stay was comfortable and accommodating. If she couldn't help, she found somebody that could, and was always available which we were very appreciative for. The only thing to note is that cars are not allowed in the old town often so parking can be found just outside the parameters and is readily available in parking areas and on the street all around. This is usually a 5 min walk so not an issue though. If you want a hip and spacious boutique experience, I highly recommend this place.

Très satisfait pour mon choix d'hôtel que j'ai fait à Chania. Qualité/prix cela correspondait à mes attentes. Ma chambre était située dans une cour intérieure qui donne sur la Terrasse extérieur du Restaurant La Bohème. Très bon restaurant et très belle ambiance. Hôtel bien situé et tout près du port Vénitien

因為搭夜船在很早約8:00AM就到達Chania,但旅館主人居然可以讓我在這樣早的早上就讓我入住了!!讓我一個上午不至於流落街頭,非常非常謝謝這間旅館的幫助。旅館就位於主街中間街邊,位置相當優。旅館還招待ouzo酒及餅乾橄欖桿等小點心,very good。房間不大,但傢俱及裝潢看得出主人的用心和品味,窗外樹草綠意盎然,是一間不可多得的良好住宿經驗。

Boende med bra läge
Det här boendet är en typ av blandning mellan hotell och B&B. Det finns ingen reception så in- och utcheckning behöver arrangeras med ägarinnan. Rummen ligger också i ett bostadshus med vad det medför, bl.a. att det är relativt lyhört (både ut och mellan rummen). Med det sagt så är läget utmärkt, precis ovanför den venetianska hamnen på stadens huvudgata. Mitt rum var också smakfullt och personligt inrett med alla faciliteter, men något litet. Mycket bra kontakt med ägarinnan om frågor om boendet och aktiviteter i Chania.
