Ontas Traditional Hotel - Chania, Greece     

We came to Chania, and fell in love with it, and now plan to stay for the winter. The ontas traditional rooms are just that, decorated in traditional decor which befits the location. Tucked between 2 of the popular spots to hang out. The location is one of the best features of this property. Its walking distance between the touristy yet lovely old harbour and the more trendy sea front area where the locals frequent in Koum Kapi. Its close enough to the action without the crazy noise and buzz of the harbour. We were treated to the suite, which is just lovely. Its a split level design, with a loft style area as the main bedroom. Cant believe how good the value for money was on this find. The owner is just adorable, his name is vassilis and we loved having chats with him. He was very hospitable and friendly, and went beyond the call of duty to help us look for an appartment for the winter. He speaks English quite well, since he has lived abroad for many years and is well travelled. Overall we would recommend this hotel, for all the reasons, the location, the rooms, the wonderful service/staff and for the cutest little kitten which sits curled up in the sun at the entrance.

I would like to make a comment for the traditional hotel Ontas I stayed in Chania. This is a petite and warm hotel in a very good location in Chania (center of the old town). Around us we had many tavernas which someone could eat really magnificent cretan cuisine. Of course it is near to the old venetian harbor where someone can have a romantic night walk seeing the sea and the view of this picturesque venetian harbor. I also enjoyed my walk in the pedestrian roads with old venetian houses. The rooms were quite clean and the wooden furnishing give a warm sense. If you go there I would suggest to book the suite with the loft which is room with internal ladder leading to nice upstair double bed. Also the value was great.
