We stayed in the hotel one night only and maybe we were just lucky but we haven't noticed any outstanding noice inside or outside.
The hotel is located on the side street leading to the sea, thus traffic is less then on the central streets of Chania.
The staff is polite and helpful.
The food is normal, no special items, but plain and good.
In any case in 5 minutes walk you are at the seashore with a great number of good restaurants and cafes.
Thrully speaking we haven't noticed any beach in the nearby (mentioned in the description) but maybe we were not looking well :)))
But instead we visited the waterpark of Chania which was graet - as compared with other places, very few people, so you don't need to stay in que half an hour, may be because you can get there only by taxi.

Just back from 3 1/2 weeks in Crete. Stayed for 4 days, then another 5 days at Hotel Kriti - excellent location for visiting the city. Clean, comfortable rooms - perfect for getting out and seeing the city. If you are visiting Chania to enjoy the city, the people, the food, then this is the place for you. You can walk around, enjoy the sights, the bust port scene (shops, restaurants, etc) even take a bus ride and then come back, rest in the hotel and go out at night. Breakfast is as good as any resort setup - a beautiful buffet beside the pool. The staff are absolutely first class - we had a medical emergency, uncle ended up in the hospital for several days, and the staff were terrific. If you want to just stay in your hotel room much of the day and be in a self contained resort where you don't leave the grounds, have a swimming pool and overpriced food, never experience the people, then try hotels outside of Chania to the west. If you want to have comfortable accomodations, a great start to the day with breakfast and then go out and explore the city, this is the spot for you.

We would visit this hotel for many times in the future! Nice and hospitable atmosphere, excellent staff! There is also gorgeous swimming pool.
The most important thing about this hotel is its location, it is situated exactly in the center of the town, the fact that made our vacations comfortable. The are also many greek tavernas, next to the hotel on the seashore. We had a room with sea view, and we had chance to watch the performance in the open theatre, situated just in front of the hotel.

This hotel has great staff and is kept very clean. We stayed in April 2005 and had the worst holiday of our lives. The hotel is taken over by groups of schoolchildren which was an absolute nightmare. We had to change rooms several times and even contemplated sleeping in our hire car to get a bit of peace. If we had not paid up front then we would have moved out. We have stayed at this hotel before and the street noise from motorbikes etc is bad but the location in Chania city was good. I would advise anybody to check first if there are any groups of kids etc booked into the Hotel at the same time. Peaceful and quiet it was not. The holiday was ruined for us - I did send a letter to the owners but had no reply. Hope this helps.
