Malaxa Holiday Rentals

"Arguably the best hotel in Chania, Crete. Very good service and amazing rooms. Very close to the Chania’s Old Harbor. "

"Very well-located boutique hotel with excellent breakfast, good sized, clean and well-laid out rooms and a lovely helpful staff! Highly recommend!"

"Great staff, bed and experience "

"This was a wonderful hotel. We were on the 5th floor and enjoyed a spacious balcony and great ocean views. The room was spacious and well appointed. The shower had a drenching rain shower head and great water pressure. Nice coffee/tea offerings and refridge including a few bottles of water, juice, and wine. Breakfast buffets were amazing with lots of variety; my wife is vegetarian and loved it! The front desk staff were very kind and helpful. Eleni spent much time insuring we had great tips for site seeing. We didn't take advantage of the pool or spa but looked small but inviting. Great hotel. An unexpected jewel very near old town. Would love to stay again. "

"Staff were beyond helpful and nice. Beautiful hotel for those looking for a luxury feel and top location "

"We had a good stay overall, with a few things worth noting. The staff were excellent. Petros handled a leak in our room brilliantly and upgraded us to a suite while it was fixed. The bar staff were also very attentive and friendly. The main downside was the spa setup. For a hotel marketed as a 5* hotel and spa, it was disappointing that all facilities come at an extra cost. The sauna and jacuzzi require a private booking (30 minutes, €25–30 per person). The jacuzzi was also only lukewarm and only seemed to heat up towards the end, which goes very quickly. It was also a shame the indoor spa pool was closed. I understand this is no longer advertised, but it would have made a big difference, especially in bad weather. That said, the massages were excellent and worth the €50–60 per person. The hotel is a mix of old and new. The older side shows wear, with stains on couches and cushions, but the beds were comfortable and housekeeping was great. The suite was lovely. I would recommend paying extra for newer rooms in the spa building. Breakfast had nice touches like local honey, also given as a check-out gift, but vegetarian options were limited. Indoor seating can be tight in colder months. Overall, great service but not quite a 5* spa experience."
