Historic Boutique Hotel
Splanzia Boutique Hotel is set in Chania Old Town, behind the Venetian Harbor's lively restaurants and cafes. The building features an original Venetian doorway with a Turkish emblem, remnants of its 19th-century past. Stone walls, arches, and a preserved fireplace reflect its Venetian mansion heritage. The design blends custom contemporary and classical furnishings, with granite, iron, wood, and bold fabrics like silk Turkish carpets.
Rooms with Cretan Comfort
Rooms include Cocomat mattresses, air conditioning, mini-fridges, and 32-inch LCD satellite TVs. Bathrooms have free toiletries and hairdryers. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout. Some rooms overlook the quiet backstreets of the Splanzia district, known for its 1645 dome-shaped Mosque and minarets.
Breakfast in the Courtyard
Breakfast is served in the private courtyard, featuring Cretan pastries, local specialties, and homemade dishes using fresh, regional ingredients. The menu includes sweet and savory options based on traditional recipes.
Explore Chania's Highlights
The hotel is 300 meters from Church of Saint Rocco and Agios Nikolaos, 500 meters from the Cathedral of Eisodion tis Theotokou, and 1 km from the Maritime Museum of Crete. The area is known for narrow alleys, restored old buildings, and the historic Turkish quarter. Falassarna Beach, 50 km away, offers kite-surfing and paragliding.
Practical Services
Private parking is available opposite the hotel for €8 per day. The hotel follows eco-friendly practices. The 16 km Samaria Gorge hike starts at Omalos, 1,250m above sea level. Ferries return hikers to Agia Roumeli, where buses take them back to starting points.
“Splanzia Boutique Hotel strikes me as a particularly well-situated base in Chania, moments from the harbor yet somehow offering quiet rooms-a real find. The brothers who run it clearly prioritize a personal touch, especially evident in the generous, homemade breakfasts served in the courtyard. It's the kind of place where you feel genuinely looked after.”
