Absolutely amazing stay !! 5 stars in every aspect . Rooms, view, staff & facilities were truly fabulous. The hotel was in the perfect location. 5 minute walk ( 10 min stroll) along coast to old town, or 2 mins if you walked along old walls. Chania is a beautiful place .

We had a fantastic stay at SanSal Chania. The staff were super friendly, welcoming and really helpful. We had some lovely meals out thanks to their recommendations. Our room was immaculate and we had bottled water in our fridge daily. Great coffee pods were supplied for our in- room machine. The room came with a hairdryer and an ironing board. Our bathroom was spacious and came with really nice, locally sourced complimentary shower gels, soap and moisturisers. The bed was spacious, very comfortable and the only time we heard noise from outside was on one morning as there was construction locally. We even received an evening turn down service which we were not expecting and this was lovely to come back to after a day of exploring- fresh towels were supplied if necessary and the room had received a general tidy up. This hotel is 10 minute walk (if that) into Old Town Chania. There is plenty of parking available if you hire a car. We received a free bottle of wine with our stay which was great as we actually stayed over my birthday. The infinity pool on the roof was 10/10, providing great views. The pool was very clean and we did not have difficulty finding a lounger. The bar on the rooftop was also great with reasonably priced cocktails and great food. Breakfast was also delightful- some of the best scrambled eggs I’ve had abroad and the selection of local foods on offer at the buffet was fantastic. Overall I could not fault this hotel and would 100% stay again. Thank you!!

We couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming team for our engagement holiday. From the moment we booked the holiday the whole experience was brilliant, we were truly treat like family. Gorgeous views from the rooftop infinity pool and bar, comfortable beds and modern fresh rooms. Perfectly located inbetween the old town and Nea Chora Beach, we were never stuck for things to do. We can’t thank everyone enough for making our visit to Chania so special, we will definitely be returning.

We had 8 days of pure relaxation on our honeymoon at the SanSal hotel. The hotel is modern. Our room was lovely and somehow always cool in high temperature. Amazing view from our balcony. The staff are super friendly. We loved spending time on the roof top pool area. Its a short walk to beaches and into the brilliant old town I would 💯 recommend this hotel if you are thinking of staying in Chania. We will come back again.

This is one of the nicer hotels in Chania. The included breakfast buffet was wonderful— plentiful and with many options. The staff were all friendly and nice. There is a rooftop pool and lounge chairs with a bar that had amazing views and was a great amenity we enjoyed, especially for watching the sunset over a drink. The beds were comfortable. The downside for us was that it was not quiet, with noise heard from the hallways and adjacent rooms and the street, requiring ear plugs. Also, one of our 2 sinks in the bathroom was non-functioning due to a leak, and the shower was unusable due to it smelling like sewage. Thankfully there was a separate bathtub to use, but less convenient.

Our stay at Sansal Hotel was mostly fantastic. The location is perfect, just a short walk to the old harbor, with the best views of the ocean and sunset anywhere in the city. The staff was totally fantastic and very helpful with everything. The only thing that was a bit gross was the sink in our room. We booked a suite on the top floor, and the sink had been repaired in a makeshift way with a ton of caulk to waterproof the edges and corners. There was black mold growing all over it. Not just in one small area but really along every area. That’s not only gross but really not healthy, and certainly not appropriate for any room in a hotel like this. They should really take care of this problem before renting the room to anyone else.

We had an amazing time in Santorini staying at the hotel. The views are wonderful and sitting on the patio eating breakfast while overlooking the bay is surreal. It was located in a good location that was not overcrowded, but offered the best views. So many people walked by the hotel and were curious because it looked so relaxing and beautiful by the pool. Would highly recommend.
