The fully restored Ottoman bath on site offers a quiet space for relaxation, while additional services include daily housekeeping, laundry, and dry cleaning.

Dining
Breakfast is served in the suites or in the picturesque courtyard, with a gourmet à la carte menu prepared by a specialized chef. The chef uses local flavors and seasonal ingredients, offering items such as scrambled eggs, pancakes, and fresh pastries baked daily. Dinner is also available via complimentary room service from the same restaurant.

“What stands out here is the seamless blend of historical elegance and modern luxury; the building itself, a renovated Venetian house, anchors you in Chania's rich past. The location places you steps from the Venetian harbor, yet the atmosphere remains serene, which is a rare find. In my opinion, the personalized service and culinary focus truly elevate the experience beyond the typical boutique stay.”
