Serenissima Boutique Hotel in Chania 731 31, open June–September.
Serenissima Boutique Hotel stands apart with its intimate 12-room property that eliminates the impersonal feel of larger Cretan venues, offering direct hotel management control over every wedding detail.
Positioned in central Chania with Venetian architecture as your backdrop, the hotel provides both ceremony and reception spaces without requiring guest transportation between locations.
Its 4.9/5 Google rating reflects consistent execution of small-scale, personalized celebrations.
Positives - very central location and great breakfast Negatives - not even close to a 5 star hotel. This is a boutique 4 star hotel. Room 7 wasn't that comfortable as bedroom and wardrobe is up a flight of stairs, and it is quite dark upstairs. Bed uncomfortable. Cant really rate service, as nobody at desk most of the time. They were polite, but wouldn't say overly helpful. Summary - not terrible but wouldn't go back and shouldn't be promoted as 5 star.
