The rooms are fitted with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a fridge, a coffee machine, a bidet, free toiletries and a wardrobe. With a private bathroom fitted with a shower and a hairdryer, some rooms at the inn also boast a city view. We stayed there from the 13th to the 15th of June and I can’t recommend this place enough. Everything about it was perfect. The location is unbeatable - tucked away on a quiet and charming street, yet just steps away from everything you might need: shops, restaurants, bars. The room itself was immaculately clean and incredibly well-equipped with an ironing board, a coffee machine with complimentary Nespresso capsules and a blow dryer. Upon arrival, we found a bottle of cold water waiting in the fridge, along with juice, biscuits, and jam. They had also provided a small bottle of raki with two little shot glasses. Self check-in was incredibly easy. If you’re considering booking, I highly recommend choosing the double room with patio. It comes with its own private entrance, a table and two chairs for relaxing outside, and even a drying rack for wet swimsuits. A special thank you to Maria at reception. I had been looking for a safety pin and she went above and beyond, managing to find me an entire set in two different sizes. The stay was truly exceptional from start to finish.

Our bathroom was enormous, almost half the apartment, with two showers and a home sauna where you can play music via bluetooth. The bedroom was very spacious. The apartment also had a coffee machine with capsules that make very good coffee. Overall, the place really surprised us.

Popular points of interest near the guest house include Saint Anargyri Church, Chania Old Venetian Harbour and Mitropoleos Square. Chania International Airport is 14 km from the property, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service. Everything.. spotless apartment So convenient for beach and old town. Air conditioning and also a washing machine which was a huge bonus as had been travelling for 14 days prior. The owner was so very helpful and kind and let us keep luggage and use room until later as had a late flight. Would highly recommend and definitely go back if visiting Chania again.

Located in Chania Town, less than 1 km from Nea Chora Beach, Dome Rooms Downtown features views of the city. The property is around less than 1 km from Chania Old Venetian Harbour, a 5-minute walk from Mitropoleos Square and 400 metres from Folklore Museum of Chania. The inn also provides free WiFi as well as a paid airport shuttle service. I had a wonderful experience staying at Dome Rooms in Chania. The location is perfect, right in the heart of the city and just opposite the KTEL bus station, which made it super convenient for getting around the island. The room was very comfy and one of the cleanest places I’ve ever stayed in. The cleaner came every morning, keeping everything spotless and fresh. I highly recommend Dome Rooms to anyone visiting Crete, great value, comfort, and cleanliness all in one!
