This is a great hotel in a great area! The neighborhood has a market across the street, and several shops and restaurants in a 5-10 minute walk. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and have great A/C. Be sure to visit Penny's Cafe & Market while you're in the area!

Our stay was wonderful. We loved the little pool and easy access to beach and restaurants as well as the on-site parking.
Breakfast was tasty and the service was lovely. The only thing I would mention is that our sink was clogged but repaired a few days into our stay.

Small room
Room was much smaller than anticipated with little storage for suitcases etc. There was no sea view to mention and the plug sockets / USB port in the room were broken - only one was working. These were not repaired during our stay, though a bottle of wine was left for us.
Hotel is small but clean and staff are friendly. Good location to get about and see Chania too.

We found the Elia on Expedia and all the reviews were excellent, I can honestly say the reality was just as good, if not better.
The room was a lovely size, a massive comfortable bed, and a quite frankly brilliant shower.
The greatest USP of the Elia is the staff, the lady who organised the breakfasts is really lovely and explained all the various breakfast dishes to us, lovely freshly squeezed orange juice and a spotless breakfast room.
The reception staff helped us find great places to visit, where to find the bus the Chania and local places to eat. They are all a tremendous asset to the hotel.
