Hotel Off, Chania

Comfort
Charming Venetian-era hotel with modern amenities, local delicacies for breakfast, and a picturesque internal courtyard

Overview

A 12th-century former home is now the 10-room Hotel Off in the heart of Chania's Old Town, just steps from the waterfront and parking lot of Talos Square. Bright and modern rooms highlight original building elements like stone walls to create a peaceful space that's ideal for couples and friends. The pleasant garden serves as a breakfast area for homemade treats and amenities like balconies and hammams create a romantic atmosphere.

Kimkim's Take

Pros
  • The courtyard, historic building, and bright rooms all offer a peaceful sanctuary in the middle of bustling Old Town.
  • Amenities like balconies and hammams offer extra ambience and relaxation to the rooms.
  • Explore Old Town, the Venetian Harbor, and nearby sites easily thanks to the central location.
Cons
  • This landmark building does not have an elevator, so it's not suitable for those with mobility issues or wheelchairs.
  • The hotel doesn't offer parking in the car-free zone of Chania's Old Town, but the closest parking lot of Talos Square is just two minutes away by foot.

Authenticity

The essence of this 12th-century former home has been preserved in this hotel that marries the historic with the modern. While rooms include present-day amenities like televisions and mid-century style furniture, they also highlight original building elements like old stone walls. All of these features work together to create a peaceful space where history feels fresh and alive in Chania's Old Town.

Location

The hotel is in on the western side of Old Town, just two minutes from the parking lot of Talos Square. Firka Fortress and the waterfront are both just a minute away, while nearby sites like like the last remaining synagogue of Crete, Etz Hayimm, and the Küçük Hasan Mosque are five. Walk to the start of the lighthouse path in 15 minutes or walk along the water to reach Nea Chora beach in the same amount of time.

Rooms & Bathrooms

The hotel's 10 rooms most comfortably sleep two people. Three of them have sofabeds to accommodate one more but the absence of connecting rooms makes this better suited for couples or friends. Marble floors and old stone walls seamlessly blend with minimalist wooden furniture and neutral tones to create bright, open spaces. Views look over either Old Town or the hotel's garden, and a few rooms include balconies facing the historic center. Amenities include hammams, which can appeal to couples or those looking to relax.
