The Amphora hotel in Chania is located superb. Right in the middle of the old city.
The room was ok. The mattrass was very bad, we had to turn several times a night because it was too hard and of poor quality.
The roof terrace was great and had a beautiful view over the harbour of Chania.
The breakfast lady was very unkind and rude. She yelled at us in a very unpleasant way. We never came back.
Chania has a lot of restaurants and tavernas. The best are in the small streets of the old town.
The best restaurant was "To Stachi" a great vegetarian restaurant. Go there and enjoy a great vegetarian meal and the friendly couple who runs this fantastic restaurant!

We had a great stay at Amphora Hotel in August 2011.
The stuff was really polite and the cleanliness of the room was daily.
Amazing view from the room but quite noisy during the evening (if you want to sleep early) due to some bars and cafes that stay open until really late just under the hotel's balconies.
Price was high and not included breakfast. But August is the busiest month to visit Chania.
On the other hand, living in a room with such a great view of the old venetian harbor is an experience that everyone who visits Chania has to live :)

Amphora is very comfortable and the staff are superb in their desire to please. They're busy but if you make your needs known, they bend over backward to help you. It's not a luxurious hotel by American standards but it's an authentic old-world European establishment in a fabulous location close to the waterfront, tavernas, bars, shops, museum, Venetian breakwater, monuments, etc. We stayed in Room 10, which has a roof garden overhead and thus is quiet. There was plenty of hot water with two twin beds pushed together to form a king-size sleeping surface. The breakfast is simple but fresh. The only mistake we made was arriving late on a Friday night during high season and thus parking all over Old Town and Old Harbor was totally impossible and impassable. We had to leave our car elsewhere in the city and take a cab to the hotel. But they have a restaurant and are very close to a great museum.

The Amphora Hotel is our second home. We wish we could spent our next holiday's next year over there for 2 months in stead of 2 weeks. We love this place, the old port, the people who are taking care of you, the Amphora Restaurant below, the perfect breakfast with Eleni, Thanks to Manolis, Anita, Evi our Greek Holiday's will always be perfect in this charming hotel.
We could recommend this to everybody who is Greek minded en loves the Cretan Atmosphere.
See you next year....
