Nice Hotel for Great Price
Very convenient location to the airport and Chania. Nice hotel, with a friendly and helpful staff. Price was GREAT, as was the breakfast! Flew in late, and they left a key for us. Just needed to let them know ahead of time. I will stay there again when traveling to Chania.

stay at water lily
We were four girls all early 20's who stayed at this hotel as a location before our actual destination as we flew into chania airport but we are going back again for our last night as the hotel was that nice. Nina the owner is incredibly friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was to die for. Also a major plus is the photos online are the same as the rooms which was a big relief.

Die Besitzerin der Unterkunft hat uns herzlich empfangen und sehr gut über die Umgebung und Aktivitäten aufgeklärt. Das Zimmer war riesig und top gepflegt. Das Bad war sehr modern mit einer tollen Regendusche. Unser Highlight war die Poolanlage, welche sehr schön mit einer Lounge umgesetzt wurde. Es waren zudem reichlich Liegen vorhanden. Das Frühstück wurde von der Besitzerin selbst gemacht und war auf unserem Roadtrip durch Kreta mit Abstand das Beste! Totale Weiterempfehlung!!!

Huoneisto tilava ja keittokomeron varustetaso kohtalaisebn hyvä. Ravintolapalvelut hotellissa niukat ja myös lähistöllä vähäiset. Kauppa palveli vastapäätä pitkään omatoimisia. Makuuhuoneissa viilennyslaite erinomainen. Sijainniltaan hankala löytää, koska opastus puutteellinen. Hanian lentokentälle n. 11 km. Henkilökunta erittäin ystävällistä. Iltayön parinkymmenpäisen joukon bileet häiritsivät, koska äänieristys heikohko.

Nära flygplats, Chania
Vi hade en marklägenhet, tyst läge, men ingen utsikt, ganska mörkt. Hotellägaren var väldigt trevlig och vi fick ett mycket bra bemötande. I köksdelen fanns allt man behöver för tillagning av frukost och även till matlagning. Härlig färgsättning i rummet. "Skrikiga stolar" hördes från hela huset. Möbeltassar på stolarna hade inte varit fel. Bussen till Stavros stannar utanför hotellet, men sista bussen från Chania stad går 20:15 på kvällen. Bil rekommenderas.

Ottimo hotel vicino all'aeroporto
Cose positive: - Posizione dell'hotel rispetto all'aeroporto di Chania; - Cordialità del personale; - Zone comuni rinnovate; - Abbondante colazione; Cose negative: - Leggera disorganizzazione; - Sciacquone difettoso; - Bagno, in generale, un po' deludente;

Almost perfect
I think this hotel is unique for its colors in rooms and the hospitality of the 2 sisters who own and run them. Although I stayed only just 1 night, I have no important complaints to mention and I would highly recommend it to everyone that looks for a spacious room at reasonable price, with a pleasant atmosphere, without compromises.

The owner is a very cool lady that loves to gives you any type of informations about restaurant and places to see. She's really lovely.

Hotel Water Lily, Kreta
Hotellets appartment var fint store med mulighed for af tilberede morgenmad etc. På tagterrassen kunne man tilberede frokost /aftensmad/grille i den udendørs køkken som var indrettet og den var en døgnkiosk lige på den anden side af vejen til de mest fornødne dagligvarer. ( Ingen resturant på hotellet ) Hotellet drives af far og datter, som begge er særdeles imødekommende, venlige og hjælpsomme mennesker. Hotellet ligger i kort afstand fra strand, lufthavn og ca. 30 min fra Khania, som er et eller flere besøg vær med dens gamle bydel og de hyggelige små stræder med alle de mange forskellige boder og butikker.
