Riviera Suites

I had a wonderful stay here. My room was spacious and beautifully furnished with high end fittings. Great view over the harbour and right in the centre of things. Top class thoughtful service and initiative from Elia for whom nothing was too much trouble. She really made a positive difference to my stay. A five star experience for sure.

Hotel location provided a view of Old Harbour and was beautifully modernized. The building was extremely well maintained and security was exceptional. Two key disadvantage why is not give a 10/10 rating is breakfast buffet that was offered was subpar in comparison to other hotels and surrounding restaurants. Also I had the top floor accommodations and it automatically come with baggage assistance up the stairs verses telling me via email that I had to request it. I booked in January, Email lost and no reminder and no one to take suitcase up three flights of stairs.

Beautiful property and super accommodating! Room temp was way too hot tho, cannot have the room temp below 23 C

Elia was so helpful and Steph so personable staff location room beautiful wonderful setting amazing stay!

A true find! This delightful 4 unit boutique hotel was amazing. Centrally located, walkable to everything in town. The rooms are amazingly appointed. We had the two rooms on the first floor - one had two balconies overlooking the harbor, was large in size and gorgeous. The second room also had a balcony and a private hamam (sauna) that comfortably fit two. The rooms include a huge breakfast at the local yacht club. There is an adorable bar on the main floor with incredible staff. Ilea the manager was super responsive, helpful with recommendations for restaurants, tours, car services, etc. Housekeeping was so amazing. The rooms are comfortable, safe, clean and gorgeous. I would definitely stay here again when I return to Crete.

Katerina has created something truly special at Riviera Suites. We stayed in the Executive and the Superior Sea Front Suites; the sophisticated elegance of these rooms is exceptional. The attention to detail and the quality of the fit out is second to none - and the views, their photos do not disappoint, it really is captivating! The beds were a dream to sleep in, the linen and towels so luxurious. The location could not get any better, it is quiet in the evening, with beautiful authentic Cretan restaurants at your doorstep. Essenza Cafe-Bar (located downstairs) is looked after by Stefania and Panos, who in turn do amazing coffee and cocktails and are full of excellent local knowledge. Breakfast is also delicious, with a variety of options and enjoyed at the sailing club next-door. A huge thank you to Katerina and her amazing staff for an outstanding stay, I have nothing but praise for this beautiful boutique hotel.

1. Very new 4 room suites suite hotel.(since December 2022) 2. Interiors and finishing very high quality and very clean. 3. Next to harbor and walking distance to all interesting site and old town . 4. Breakfast is served at the sailing club , 100 meters away from location. You are allowed to choose from 4 sets of fixed options which for us was a bit boring to eat for 5 days, as the English breakfast was the only one that we preferred . Choice of coffee was limited to 1 cup of American coffee. It would have been better to offer just a bed option and leave us to choose where to breakfast from so many choices around the area. 5. We were told that Our suite, number 201, was on 2nd floor with no elevator so we thought that was acceptable but turned out that you need to climb over 48 steps carrying your own 30 kg case to your room 🤔😔.(BETTER TO CLEAR THIS WHEN DESCRIBING ROOMS) 6. They offer you a complimentary bottle of white wine and bottled water on arrival . after that you need to buy your own water. 7. When booking our room they say all rooms are Facing sea front but turned out the our room had a side view of the harbor. 8. For such a beautiful suite and offered free amenities it would have been good to provide tissue papers aswell . 9. The receptionist is not available all the time but you can reach by phone if you need them. 10 Car park available for hotel

We stayed in Riviera Suites for 3 days around Valentine’s Day 2023. Once there we knew we made a perfect choice. Our beautiful room, with a private haman was big and had a great view of the Venetian Harbor and its lighthouse. It is really hard to imagine a better spot in the old town of Chania. We asked for some tips on where to go and all the recommendations were spotless. Can’t wait to see the place again on our honeymoon in July. It is a real Cretan Pearl.
