Ambassadors Residence Boutique Hotel in Chania 731 32.
Ambassadors Residence Boutique Hotel occupies a carefully restored Venetian mansion dating to the 17th century, originally constructed as a noble residence during Crete's Ottoman period.
The property underwent extensive restoration to preserve its architectural character while introducing modern hospitality amenities, creating a venue where centuries-old stone walls and arched passageways frame contemporary wedding celebrations.
Located in the heart of Chania's Old Town, it serves as both accommodation and event space for destination weddings of up to 150 guests.
Hotel's location is excellent, near the old town with many restaurants nearby. Very clean rooms and nice receptionists, especially Theodora. Rooms have interesting designs, depending on the theme. The entrance was hard to find first time, you have to go through stairs and at first it's not clear where the main entrance is. Breakfast was decent, staff very attentive, would've been nice to have more fruits at the buffet, especially since we stayed during summer. Overall we enjoyed our stay, would come here again.
