Welcome to Chania, the romantic harbour town in the west of Crete with its venetian character.

The lively city centre with its countless shopping and entertainment possibilities is also only a few hundred metres away. At a glance... - Small, luxurious boutique hotel in the most beautiful city of Crete.

The car-free promenade of the small fishing port of Nea Chora, which stretches west along the fine sandy beach, begins directly in front of the hotel. Further west, there are several small bays with golden, gently sloping sandy beaches: Aptera, Chrissi Akti and Agii Apostoli. All beaches regularly awarded the Blue Flag are within walking distance of the hotel. The area up to Agii Apostoli is mostly covered with small parks with pine and eucalyptus trees. In an easterly direction, the old town of Chania, which boasts the romantic Venetian harbour, awaits you after a few minutes on foot. This unique scenery consists of the old lighthouse, the Firkas fortress, the mosque with the large white dome and the pastel-coloured houses from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries. On the harbour promenade, which offers a unique view of the sea, there is a wide choice of restaurants, cafés and bars. Every evening the whole city meets here for a stroll.

Amazing hospitality

Never been to any hotel which focuses as much on this - spa was very thoroughly relaxing and is a definite must-go - breakfast was INCREDIBLE and had many many vegetarian options which was different from everywhere else. - easily the best hotel in Chania

Went as 2 couples for a sunny break away. Pleasantly suprised with our stay at kiani beach. Food was consistently good. As a family hotel we didn't feel too overwhelmed by the children present. Entertainment for adults as well as children. Great cocktails, worth the VIP upgrade. Near and accessible trips to chania, 25 euro in a taxi. Good days trips to visit some beautiful places. Thoroughly enjoyed the boat trip. Also the 50m pool which was great to do so lane swimming

Reviewed By miranda-t1009

The hotel was lovely and our room was great! All the facilities that were on offer were of a top quality and I felt as though I was staying in a clean and well maintained place. The pool was clean and had a lovely temperature, I also loved having the option of going down to the sea and being by the beds there. Every member of staff was helpful, welcoming, super friendly and very accommodating. A special mention to Mr George who was always checking up on the guests to ensure that everyone was being taken care of and having a good time. The food was to a great quality and there was a good choice too, very yummy! The spa facilities and treatments were delightful. I felt very relaxed staying there and would definitely recommend if you are looking to be having a good time, be taken care of and to wanting to relax!

Stayed at this hotel for 10 nights. All the staff were efficient and attentive to all our needs. Our room and all areas of the hotel were exceptionally clean and maintatined to a very high standard. All fixtures and fittings were of a very high standard too. The restaurant food was amazing with a wide range of breakfast options. Dinner options were also very tasty and no more expensive than surrounding restaurants around. All the restaurant staff were incredibly kind and helpful - thank you. Our room overlooked the venetian harbour so the location for us was perfect. We would highly recommend this hotel to others and will look forward to going back there in the future for another stay.

Cretan Dream Royal in Stalos is exactly that: a royal dream !

Reviewed By Passport13610810221

Everything is top! Short version: You hesitate to book? No need. The place is a blast from A-Z.  Long version:  My 2 room suite with a sea view provided me with all the luxury I could wish for. Staying here you will find many details to enjoy and make you at home: a very spacious and super comfortable bed (slept better than at home), a make-up stand, roomy cupboards with drawers and ample hangers, a mini kitchen with fridge and freezer lid, a table sitting-area and another one with a huge sofa, a flatscreen in each room and a grand sea view balcony with nice seating.  Details I appreciated additionally in my room were the rolling glass door in the shower (no clingy curtain…), the water heater and the coffee machine, the make-up light and the drying rack on the balcony (no colourful towel chaos over the balcony railing.) The facilities at Cretan Dream speak a language of relaxation. Just enjoy!  The infinity pool provides a spectacular view over the bay, the daybeds are most comfortable, the Spa area is exceptional, the mini shop offers everything you might need.  Breakfast is broadly varied, the food is delicious and I will never forget the honey comb rack to cut off honey in the morning. Dinner on the deck terrace is exquisite and accompanied by an incredible sundown view. This was a highlight  of my days.  I like to mention that I have to care for gluten-free nutrition. It was a vast surprise to me that the team could support this from day 1 without me even pre-announcing it.   It was a great relief going abroad and being faced with such an outstanding service.  I’ve been travelling around the globe - and:  this place is extraordinary, it is setting itself apart. One feels the drive of the management to anticipate everything. The whole team works together hand in hand, everyone is super friendly and humorous and exceedingly helpful in all things required. From my chamber fairy, to the reception gang, over the breakfast clan and the dinner crew or the pool bar team, everyone was approachable, very caring and really made my stay a huge enjoyment. Having already achieved this high a standard, the owner  still cares deeply, and he is interested in even more feedback to further improve.  Well, there was nothing to add from my experience. It was perfect to me.  To those of you who I connected personally with, thank you again for your kindness, your smiles and the atmosphere of vacation happiness.  Keep up the good work,  This is a place to come back to.  Thank you, Alice  Ps / about getting there:  I drove up from Heraklion within 2h by rental car and found this very easy. The drive is spectacular, I enjoyed it very much.  The area is a great starting point for all excursions NW-Crete, over the splendid beaches, to Samaria Gorge, to Chania and down to Sfakia.

Whilst it is considered among the finest five star hotels in Crete and offers services of the highest standards combined with the well known authentic Cretan Hospitality.

Sort of average with nice pools and grounds.

Reviewed By mariaheloise

Difficult to rate this one. Many people don’t understand the star system for hotels. They are generally awarded for facilities rather than service. Pilot beach is five star in the sense that it has multiple pools( including an indoor one) and beautiful well kept grounds which include tennis courts, football area etc. There also seems to be entertainment in the evening and good facilities for children. Having said all that for me the experience here has been quite average. A couple of days before I arrived I messaged the hotel to ask about a paid upgrade. I would have liked one of their panoramic suites but no one got back to me. When I arrived in the late afternoon no one mentioned my message so I just decided to keep the standard room that I had booked.( probably saving myself a thousand euros in the end). I had also asked for a quiet, second floor room. I got a second floor room near the car park which I didn’t really mind but to be honest I could have done without the sound of the bottle recycling being emptied quite often. The room itself is quite nice with a view over the mountains. There are quite nice toiletries and bathrobes etc. My room has a very basic over a bath shower. No problem I think because I can have a nice relaxing bath. Unfortunately this hasn’t happened as despite messaging and then going to reception to ask I never received a bath plug and so said bath was quite useless. If you don’t want people to use a bath please don’t put them in the rooms and if you don’t want to bring a plug just tell your guests. After the second day of asking I gave up. Air conditioning in room good and bed comfortable. Maid service was good and unobtrusive. I enjoyed the breakfast buffet but to be honest for me the dinners have been quite mediocre. Lots of choice but very standard to hotels in Greece. Staff were nice enough but the whole order in app thing doesn’t really work well as for example I ordered ice coffee on the beach but the part of the app where you put your preferences didn’t seem to work for me so my coffee turned up with no sugar and one day it didn’t turn up at all! I suppose I could say these are all small things but this isn’t a particular cheap hotel so I don’t expect to have to do things like chase after a bath plug or a missing coffee. Would also be nice if a little more of a welcome was given at check it. The lady was polite and efficient but for me it just lacks that little personal touch that I expect in better hotels. So for me with two days to go of my holiday I would say that my experience has been sort of average. I do understand that I am not the usual demographic for this hotel as most of the other people staying here are German families who did all seem to be enjoying it very much. I really wanted to love this one considering it has a lot of very good reviews but maybe I am missing something. One more thing is it is quite a long way from Georgioupolis by foot. You can walk a long the beach but the deep soft sand is hard to walk on and I would suggest that you would have to be quite young and fit to do it in the 15 minutes or so that the hotel suggests. Would I stay again? Probably not but if you are Northern European with a young family this is probably a nice resort for you.

Good holiday

Reviewed By jlscpt

Stayed at hotel for 2 weeks. Hotel clean and tidy with beautiful beach and 2 pools, sunbeds available on the beach and pool areas. Meals were good but nothing particularly outstanding, breakfast always a queues for the coffee machine and constantly running out of basic things like spoons and bowls, lunch and dinner very same situation, good mixture of fish , meat and pasta dishes but nothing outstanding. The bedroom room 236 was facing the road ....BIG MISTAKE but no rooms available without paying for a sea view, all day and all night motorbikes blasting up and down the roads , in the morning lorries delivering things blocking the road and very noisy and not much of a mountain view and dogs barking all day and night, hotel should offer rooms without changing for sea views. The village had lots of closed shops and restaurants, has seen better days Room had kettle and fridge which was good. Good holiday but for the price I paid , better options available.
