Hoteller i Khania (Kreta)

Fordeler: It was very nice at Yannis's place. We had everything we needed: from shower gel and conditioner to terrace area where we could have our coffee. We had also free wi-fi and TV to watch international channels. Yannis offered us coffee, cookies and raki during our stay and even something to eat for the first day, which was very nice. The rooms were spacious and clean. The maid would clean our room everyday except Sundays, which was very nice. We had the bed sheets changed often. The hotel's pool has a spectacular view and is very nice to swim and relax there. The Kalathas beach is 10 minute away, so we went by foot there. And, more than all, Yannis is amazing! He helped us with everything we asked for, he gave us also beach umbrellas and helped us with all sorts of indications to move around, including ordering food in the room (which was very good). We prefered to eat in Chania, as in Kalathas was more expensive and not so varied, so we took the public bus. It happens some time to arrive even half an hour or more later than it is expected, but it is a good option if you do not have a car. The bus station is 5 minutes away from the hotel. So, to sum up, it is absolutely great and we strongly recommend Yannis's place for a relaxing and pleasant stay.

Ulemper: The shower's sewer drainage was a little bit lazy.

Fordeler: Beautiful place!!! It was super clean and cosy. With a super warm welcome by the owner he was so helpful and friendly. He explains all with charisma and patience my boyfriend and I liked him so much! Also he said goodbye to us with a nice tradicional sweet from the island. I highly recommend 100% this place. Dayana and Jho

Ulemper: No complaints at all

Fordeler: We would highly recommend esplanade apartments located in a beautiful location in Crete. The hotel was near safe sandy beaches and local family run tavernas that served excellent high quality but good value meals. Yiannis was a brilliant host, he has a wealth of knowledge of places to visit in the area and his warm welcome made our holiday. There is something for everyone in this location - walks, swimming, relaxing on the beach or by the pool, historical sites and close to the city of Chania but with the peace and quiet of a beach location. A great holiday made even better by Yiannis who is such a considerate host. We have stayed in many places round the world but he goes above and beyond to make your holiday one to remember. Thank you.

Fordeler: Giannis, the owner and everything else!

Fordeler: We had a great time at Esplanade apartments! The rooms were very clean and cosy, with beautiful sea view. The local beach is near. Yiannis is a great host, kind and very friendly! He made our holiday more interesting. We came late and snacks were waiting for us in the fridge. If we ever come back to Crete, we would stay there again!

Fordeler: Yiannis, the hotel owner, is extremely nice and does everything for you to enjoy your stay and it makes you smile talking to him. Very clean rooms with a pretty modern equipment and very comfortable new beds inside. Highly recommended!

Fordeler: The apartments were very clean and newly refurbished. It is the perfect location if you want to spend your holiday in Chania and you have a rental car. The host, Yianis, is very friendly and he offers his advices when you need a good restaurant or a nice secret beach to discover.

Fordeler: Yainnis is the consummate host. Friendly, and so very helpful. It was lovely to turn up at 10.30 at night to find food and wine in the fridge! The room was top quality and also fresh towels every day and sheets just about every other! The cats belonging to the complex are lovely and very well cared for by the owner. The area is superb for traveling by car in the area and a simple and cheap bus ride from Chania ( best to go by bus, parking is 'challenging', the bus stop is just around the corner.)

Ulemper: Absolutely nothing!

Fordeler: Host very helpful,provided breakfast for early flight,good touch of a bottle of wine in the room.

Ulemper: Could not make hot coffee in the room.

Fordeler: Beautiful views from the room and tarrace, good breakfast, amazing host, comfortable beds (they are usually much harder in other places we stayed), the little things such as complimentary bottle of wine and water, even bathrobe and slippers! Bit out of town but there is a bus stop right at the doorstep with a frequent service

Ulemper: If I had to be picky, there was quite annoying noise at night, whenever it was even bit windy like high pitched squeak which my bf discovered to be a flag! But we had some wine (complimentary in the room) and raki and we slept like babies :)

Fordeler: We were warmly welcomed by our hosts, who recommended a nearby restaurant that was excellent. The view at breakfast was so beautiful.

Fordeler: PROS: - Owners Lena and her husband were super welcoming and helpful, felt more like relatives than hosts. Easy to communicate with, offered information and great to sit and chat with - Hotel is actually a huge beautiful home, renovated to serve as a hotel with a huge balcony overlooking the city and the ocean. Perfect place to have a meal and relax. - Rooms were massive, found a welcome basket with free wine, also provided slippers and bathroom in the room. As a budget traveler, this was not what I was expecting and felt very fancy to us. We had a huge wrap around balcony that overlooked the water and the city below. - Excellent shower, good WIFI. Toiletries were included. - We needed a taxi to the airport very early in the morning, Lena's husband offered to take us for a cheaper rate than a taxi. He was punctual and a great conversationalist during the trip. Really made the ordeal stress free. - Lena had woken up even earlier than we did to make sure there would be fresh coffee and cakes ready before our early departure around 5 AM. We though that was completely unnecessary and very sweet of her. - Although it looks far on a map, the hotel is just a 10 minute taxi ride from the center of town (about 7 euro) and was much easier to get to than we anticipated.

Ulemper: CONS: - I don't have anything negative to say about this property of the staff.

Fordeler: Amazing staff, very helpful and friendly. Some of the best I've ever seen anywhere in the world. Great room, very comfortable with a lovely view. Bus stop just outside the hotel to travel to town. Would definitely stay here again if in Chania.

Fordeler: Wonderful owner, great room and breakfast. Highly recommended.

Fordeler: One of the best sunset views ever. Very nice host. Only 10 min drive to airport, and another 10 min to the old city by car.

Ulemper: There is an awful Lidl on the same street, but otherwise it is a nice area.

Fordeler: View,greeting,good touch,wine and water in room,good bed size.

Ulemper: Breakfast was basic,bread and cheese and meat.

Fordeler: The owners and staff were super friendly; the room was cleaned every day; towels were also changed daily; and the view from the terrace is just amazing! Highly recommended!

Fordeler: We found this hotel very last minute (same day as check in) and were happily surprised with how wonderful it was! It was clean and beautiful and the staff was very accomodating. Highly recommend!!

Fordeler: We stayed in the Renieris Hotel for the 4th time.We were always happy with Hotel, with the perfect and helpful services.Stella's meals highly recommended.The breakfast is wide variety, fresh and tasty vegetables,fruites.Lots of choises for dinner.Good cocktails.The hotel is modern,well equipped.FIVE stars clean.The Hotel owned by family members, they do hard job to satisfy the quests.They never forget to give smile to them.We visited Athens as well but we didn't feel the same kind of hospitality like in Renieris Hotel.

Ulemper: SHORT holiday:((((((((((((((((((((((((...

Fordeler: The staff was keen to help with a suitcase problem I had.

Ulemper: The table in the room might be a bit small in case you want to work on a laptop.

Fordeler: Beliggenhet. Stille og rolig. God plass rundt bassenget. Rimelig. Hyggelig personell. Dette er en perle.

Ulemper: Om en skulle sette fingeren på noe så var det at bestikket til frokost kunne vært vanlig bestikk og ikke dessert bestikk. Men det er en bagatell.

Fordeler: Fantastic hotel. Very friendly staff would go out of their way to help you offering advice on where to visit and what to do. The breakfast was excellent, lots of choice, and eggs cooked to order. Eating in the evening was convenient and food of a very high standard. Very comfortable rooms and beds. Simply amazing!

Ulemper: 97 steps up from the beach (going down doesn't count!). Although there is parking at the hotel it could be quite limited sometimes parking down a lane although the car was fine.

Fordeler: Lovely hotel, staff were very friendly and helpful, nice views and pool.

Ulemper: Nothing

Fordeler: Comfortable good location not far from Chania breakfast in pool area with delightful view over the bay

Fordeler: What a clean, lovely hotel! This hotel was easy to find and had easy parking. The owner was SO kind and always had a smile. Our room was clean, spacious, felt recently updated and had an amazing balcony from which to hear the sea and feel the wind blow! AC works great. We slept so well and had great showers too. The breakfast was one of the best we had on our trip — so many options ranging from local cakes/breads to fruit/veg to sausage and eggs and different types of coffees and teas — what an amazing way to start your day! LOVE the book table in the lobby. The restaurant the hotel recommended for dinner was close by and delicious. Due to weather we didn’t get to try the poop or beach but not happy looked enticing. This was our first night in Crete and we loved it all. Would happily stay again!

Ulemper: Everything was amazing! No suggestions!

Fordeler: The room was very sleek and modern, spotlessly clean, beds comfortable. Access to BBC world news was much enjoyed by my partner. Breakfast was good with lots of choice and one could enjoy the view over the sea and coast line.

Fordeler: As soon as we arrived to the hotel we were greeted with a very kind and welcoming gentleman who, during our whole stay, never failed to surprise us with unmistakable kindness. The room was fantastic and very modern indeed with very comfy beds and an amazing view out the balcony and from any point at the hotel. The breakfast was made to a remarkably high standard with plenty of different choices. We enjoyed a splash in the pool and then used the handy staircase which takes you a hundred yards right from the heart of the town and beach. The staff were superbly kind and were happy to assist us at all times. We came home with lots of amazing memories and will definitely be going back soon!

Fordeler: Based on previous reviews, we were already expecting this hotel to be very good, but even so it exceeded our expectations. The room was bigger than it seemed in the photos, the terrace directly lead us to the outdoor pool and very well kept gardens. Everything was spotless clean, towels, sheet, everything in the room was high quality, especially considering the price paid. The beds were comfortable, even the sofa beds are as good as a normal bed (they even offered soft toppers in case the beds are not soft enough, but we did not need them). One of the ceiling lights was flickering and the manager came immediately and fixed it. The view is exceptional probably the best in the area, the beach is close but you need to be at least normally fit to go up/down the stairs leading you to the beach. Anyway, we only went there once, because we either enjoyed the pool or drove to the more spectacular beaches of Crete. The breakfast although the same every day was very good quality and we simply enjoyed it every morning. There are plenty of choices for breakfast, so I think that for such a small hotel it was exceptional. The pool area and the pool itself was also exceptionally clean, a real joy to dip into the fresh water for a cool down. I can also say we have never met such friendly people in any other hotel we've been in. I'm not sure if/when we will return to Crete, but if we do, this is our first choice.

Ulemper: Although it's rare to not find something negative, I'm happy to say that everything was perfect and I can't really think of anything to say here.

Fordeler: Staff are all wonderful. Great buffet breakfast with eggs, fresh fruit, fresh coffee, croissants, cheeses, juices, etc. Perfect. The hotel was spotless. Beach towels were available for the whole trip for just €1 each. Beautiful view, great dinners! The food (a la carte) was excellent! Try the waffle & ice cream! USB plugs for phones & iPads by beds. Small reading lamps by each bed.

Ulemper: The traffic and waves crashing were noisy when trying to sleep — AC and fan also noisy. The bathroom configuration was peculiar, and small. Odd smell in the room as if from bathroom drain “catch” or toilet “stack”. The hotel wasn’t able to recommend or help with airport transfers so we ended up having to spend €34 each way for a taxi! Ugh. It’s a 40 min ride from airport to hotel. And it’s a 20 mins bus ride into Chania (€1.80 one way). The beach close by is not good — the one in Plantanias is much better.

Fordeler: Vey nice hotel run by a superb family. Everything was absolutely perfect. Great swimming pool, excellent restaurant. The housekeeping is amazing, she is the best! The beach was nearby. We had a wonderful moment. If we have the occasion, we will certainly go back there.

Fordeler: By far my favorite hotel I stayed in during the entire month-long trip to Greece....even blowing the (very expensive) Marriott I stayed at nearby out of the water! It comes down to Jerry and his family who run Jechrina. You can tell he and the entire crew care very much about their customers and business. The room was the largest I stayed in all month, with a balcony and great view of the pool and sea. Speaking of the pool -- it was HUGE and SPOTLESS. I couldn't believe how clean it was! Housekeeping was great, the restaurant was great, even the other hotel guests were friendly... many I spoke with come back to Jechrina year after year and I can clearly see why.

Fordeler: Superb value, great hospitality

Ulemper: Nothing

Fordeler: warm welcome good restaurant but very similar menus as all other restaurants around large room with separate room for kitchen and living very large bed and very comfortable it was September then fares look very competitive easy to park our car on the restaurant parking (is it same in July ?) the area is having good beaches with clean and transparent water, but the sea front is heavely built : far from being the beautiful remote Creta A car is then mandatory for visiting country side and isolated beaches Still we recommend this place

Fordeler: The staff / owner was really friendly and you could notice they took care about guests and the rooms. If we visit the Crete again we will take the Jechrina again with pleasure. We spent few weeks in Greece and it was the best lodging from all visited places. Thank you!

Fordeler: Excellent hotel, close to several restaurants, 1 beach 2 mins away, 2 more within 10 mins, Chania 15-20 mins away on bus. Spacious rooms, immaculately clean, excellent food in Piato restaurant. The family make this place - they are very welcoming and can't do enough for you.

Ulemper: Nothing - everything was perfect.

Fordeler: It was all excellent people great food was 5star

Fordeler: Fin leilighet; hyggelig vertskap og god mat i en hyggelig restaurant

Ulemper: Varmt på terrassen; savnet parasoll...

Fordeler: kjekke verter og personell, rolig og lun atmosfere,reint og alt fungerte bra

Fordeler: Everything! The staff were all very friendly, helpful and smiley, nothing was too much trouble. The apartment was kept spotlessly clean with towels changed every 2 days and sheets every 4 days if needed. The food was the tastiest we had on the Island and always served with a smile and often a joke. The location was perfect for a 5 minute walk to the beach, a beautiful pool and plenty of sun loungers. Also ideally situated for getting onto the National Road to explore by car. We definitely would recommend it to all and hope to come back again soon.

Ulemper: Having to leave after 10 days of total relaxation in a very friendly, perfectly located apartment. Not having the time to try all the delicious food on the extensive menu.

Fordeler: A very nice apartment with wonderful Family running it

Ulemper: Very relaxing, superb pool and food
