01 · In a sentence

Samaria Hotel in Chania 731 35.

Located on Crete's northern coast, Samaria Hotel operates as a full-service venue where you'll handle logistics in one place—accommodations, dining, and ceremony space all under one roof.

The 4.7-star rated property sits in central Chania, keeping guests within walking distance of the old harbor and local restaurants rather than isolated on a remote hillside.

This proximity means wedding parties can easily split time between venue events and exploring the city.

The perfect stay as always, I have stayed at this hotel on numerous occasions and will continue to stay in future. The staff are very polite, professional & always willing to assist to ensure a comfortable stay. Not to mention the excellent location of the hotel, close to everything. Thank you all for another wonderful stay. A special thanks to: Lykourgos & Bena at reception, Nektaria, Aristea, Erasmia & Marina at the bar! The best team 😊
