Hotels Near Plaísio in Chania

I was very pleased with my stay here for 6 nights. I arrived late at night so the hotel reception was a little tricky to find, and I was nervous since all the shops were closed and the streets were kind of empty but actually the neighborhood is entirely safe and right in the middle of all the action. I loved having everything right at my doorstep - restaurants, shopping, the old town center. The room was clean and actually much larger than I expected. Good wifi, powerful air conditioner, comfortable bed. Overall I had a great stay and highly recommend for anyone watching their budget but wanting to be in the heart of everything.

We stayed here on our first time visit to Crete and it did not disappoint! The hotel is in the heart of the Old Town and a few feet from a plethora of restaurants and shops! The hotel is situated in front of the harbor that is buzzing with people and activities. Our room had an amazing sea view! We could not get enough of the gorgeous view! Our room was well-sized and pretty. The hotel staff were very attentive and accommodating. The included breakfast was generous and included traditional Cretan fare with fruits, pastries, eggs, assorted breads, etc., Neo Chora beach is walking distance from the hotel. We spent an enjoyable time on this quiet beach. I would stay here again and wholeheartedly recommend this hotel!

Perfect Vacation! My first time in Greece but definitely not the last one. Together with my parents we spent 7 wonderful days. I really have nothing bad to say about this place. Even though I am living on Dubai for the past 10 years and let’s say I am used with a high standard of accommodation and service, this place was top. Very modern rooms, extremely clean place, very delicious food, amazing views, there is a shop right next to the hotel and few beaches nearby and the most important factor that made our stay so memorable are the people!! They are just soooo kind and hospitable! From the moment I arrived, Georgia gave me a warm welcome and I had a very smooth check in. Throughout our stay Iro gave us the best suggestions where to eat, what to visit and helped us to book everything; like she was our personal concierge even though this is not her job, so blessed that we have met her. Every morning we got served breakfast by the lovely Ana and Maria, so accommodating and kind. In the evening, John and Stelios served us delicious food and amazing cocktails. Nonetheless, Mr. Andreas is one of the kindest and hard working person I met! And the one who cleaned our room daily, Efi, took care of the smallest details which made our stay more comfortable. Both myself and my parents felt like we are part of the family and were very sad to leave this place but for sure we will be back! Thank you for this unforgettable experience!

The service is particularly good, and free meals will be provided for late check-in. If you get up early and go on the road, you will also prepare a breakfast box. It is suitable for lying flat in the hotel, and the experience is full.

We’ve just returned from a 12 night break at this hotel. Can’t recommend it enough! If you’re after a quiet relaxing break away from the bustle of a busy tourist resort then do consider Lena Beach Hotel. THE HOTEL stands just above the sea in the beautiful bay of Kalathas. There is a lovely sandy beach a 2 minute walk away. It’s just a 20 minute drive from the airport where you can pick up a hire car or the hotel will arrange a taxi for you at a cost of 27€. Noise from commercial planes is minimal. However there is a NATO airbase next to the main airport and so you should be aware that the noise of military aircraft is quite noticeable maybe 4 times a day. This would NOT stop us going again though! THE STAFF are what make this hotel outstanding in our opinion. They all do their jobs beautifully and with smiles! From the cleaners who kept our rooms spotless, to the reception staff who were always willing to help with any queries we had, and the bar and restaurant staff who even on very busy nights still kept smiling……. We are so grateful to you all for making our stay so enjoyable! THE FOOD…… Although we had a few meals out in Chania and Stavros it was always a delight to eat at the Lena Beach Restaurant. The menu was extensive and varied and everything was beautifully cooked and presented. We found plenty to choose from each day. THE ROOMS…… the hotel is traditional in style, not the most modern of furnishings but the important thing for me is always whether the bed is comfortable. Yes it was! I often have trouble sleeping in hotel beds but the king size bed was perfect both size and comfort wise. The air con in the bedroom was very efficient when the temperature outside was in the 30s and exterior roller blinds darkened the rooms well at night. IN SUMMARY….. we can highly recommend staying at The Lena Beach Hotel and hope to return next year.

Perfect stay in a lovely small-feel hotel right on the beach. All the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Sam and George in particular made us feel like VIPs! The breakfast spread was one of the best I have ever had in a hotel, with a vast range of cooked and continental options. Everything was spotless. The restaurant offers a good range of drinks and lunch (on the beach or on the lawn) and dinner in the evening. If you fancy a change of scenery for dinner, I recommend walking along the beach at sunset to eat at one of the many excellent beach bars towards to harbour.

Beautiful hotel - away from the crowds. Beautiful views, great cocktails! Great breakfast and evening buffet, beautiful pool, really friendly beach bar staff, great hire car options, and the free bikes and shuttle bus to the local beach is great! The only downfalls were the dated repetitive playlist that was very loud with guests mocking it and wearing their free ear plugs ... BUT, this soon became a positive as the management made a reasonable adjustment to the volume and even turned it off at the beach to allow guests to de compress with only the sound of the waves to entertain. Music playlist might be something they consider for the future. Lunch menu very poor, and don't be fooled by the pizza oven - they don't use this. Instead, what you get is a par made pizza oven baked copy. Wraps appear to be pre made, too, as they are ice cold when served. Only had once as it was overpriced and of poor quality.
