Veronica Hotel

“A good budget hotel, great location”

I stayed here in August 2022 with my partner and another couple. We had one apartment between 4 of us and were worried it wouldn't be big enough but it worked out well.

I stayed here in August 2022 with my partner and another couple. We had one apartment between 4 of us and were worried it wouldn't be big enough but it worked out well. As you can see in the photos, in the living room the sofa turns into a bed and then they had set up another bed next to it. The beds were comfy enough, I could have done with another pillow though. There is Aircon in the living room which was amazing, in the night it did get warm in the bedroom so you need to leave the bedroom door open. We paid for the safe which I think was €14 for the week. There was also an extra tax we had to pay on arrival but this wasn't much, I think it was €10. The shower was powerful but there was nothing to hold it up. There are 2 hobs and a kettle in the kitchen. We went self catering and found this enough as we only used the kitchen for breakfast. We had breakfast in the hotel restaurant one day and it was a good buffet with quite a large variety continental and the standards eggs etc. The rooms were cleaned almost every day with fresh towels and they washed our dirty plates etc as no washing liquid or cloths were provided. The pool was lovely and warm and gradually goes very deep. It was never too busy and you can drink right by the pool. They have happy hour where drinks are cheaper too. They make good strong cocktails for €5 during this time and beer was about €2. They bring your drinks over to you in the pool which was nice. They had a TV in the bar where people watched football. The staff were nice enough and they have a list of excursions in reception you can book with the tourist shop across the road. We booked the samaria gorge with them which was amazing. The location of the hotel was the best thing about it. There are restaurants all along the road and joining roads. The beaches are also just a 5 min walk. There are multiple beaches which are all lovely. They all are great for snorkeling have toilets and a shop and some have hotel restaurants on the front as well. 2 sun loungers and a parasol is about €10 depending on the beach. We walked into chania centre twice. It takes a while but it's a lovely walk along the beaches and town. I heard there are also buses that are cheap if you don't want to walk. Chania is a great day out and they also run boat trips from there too which we did, you can see an old war aeroplane in the water and an octopus they catch that day. All in all chania crete is a great location to stay at with lots to see and also great for just relaxing. The only thing we didn't find was much of a night life. Veronica hotel is a good budget hotel, if you dont plan to be in your rooms much then there's nothing to worry about. The pool, bar and location were the highlights of the hotel. Really loved Chania and would go again!

The location is good, good for viking Chania, the beaches are great, the hotel itself and pool are nice.

However the beds in the living room were very uncomfortable, and the bedroom didn't have air conditioning. The staff were unfriendly, not once they have smiled, or spoke to us. We have been going to Greek islands for years, and we have never come across with such unfriendly staff. The location doesn't actually have that many restaurants. I would go to this location again, however I would select a different hotel.

“Overpriced compared to the comfort and quality”

Nice pool but and bar. Staff is nice and the location is decent. A problem I had is that the Wifi was so slow I couldn’t even Google something and the internet didn’t even work at All 50% of the time. The Hotel is way to expensive and you can find 10x better ones down the road.
