“Candia Hotel strikes a sweet spot: close to Chania's pulse but removed from its late-night throb. I appreciate the seaside views from the rooms, especially those on the fourth floor that come with a kitchenette and comfortable beds. The staff's foresight-stocking beach essentials and snacks-is a thoughtful touch that elevates the stay from simply good to genuinely considerate.”
