Porto Del Colombo  

Tucked on the western side of Chania's Old Town, this fully renovated 600-year-old Venetian building sits only metres from the Old Harbour and within easy walking distance of the city centre. Nea Chora and Koum Kapı beaches are a short stroll away (about 800 m to the nearest beach). Expect cobbled lanes, restored Venetian façades and harbour-side character.

Once a French embassy and later the home and offices of Eleftherios Venizelos, the imposing building has been fully restored into a small boutique hotel with 10 rooms, including two maisonettes. Rooms marry traditional décor with modern comforts and include air conditioning, central heating in winter, TV, telephone, mini‑bar and fridge; some room categories offer extras like DVD players and slippers.

The hotel offers a lobby, bar and a breakfast room plus a friendly reception team happy to point you to the best of Western Crete. Services include concierge help, tour desk and excursion bookings, transfers, laundry/dry cleaning and car rental — perfect for wake-up-to-sea‑breeze mornings and easy harbour explorations.

Free on-site Wi‑Fi and general internet access throughout the property. Staff can assist with transfers, bookings and local arrangements to keep your trip efficient.

An on-site restaurant, a welcoming bar and a dedicated breakfast room serve guests daily. Start your day with breakfast in the restored Venetian setting and grab a drink at the bar after exploring the Old Harbour.
