Christina Beach Hotel

Christina Beach Hotel is a small budget hotel on Antoni Aretaki Street in Nea Chora, the seaside district on the western edge of Chania, on the Greek island of Crete. The beach at Nea Chora is close by, a sheltered, shallow stretch of sand that is popular with local families and is among the most convenient city beaches in Chania. The Old Town and Venetian harbour lie about a 20-minute walk to the east along the waterfront, and a regular local bus service also links Nea Chora with the centre. Chania International Airport is roughly 15 kilometres away on the Akrotiri peninsula and can be reached by taxi or bus via the city. The hotel is described as a small beachside property with indicative high-season rates of EUR 45 to 95 per night, which places it among the more affordable seaside options within reach of the Old Town. Rooms are offered as doubles and family rooms, and the listed amenities are air conditioning, Wi-Fi, breakfast and nearby beach access. No pool or spa is listed, as the beach serves as the main leisure facility. Dining is best arranged outside the hotel, where Nea Chora's waterfront tavernas serve grilled fish, octopus, Cretan salads with dakos and local wine at relaxed prices, often with sunset views. Breakfast is available at the hotel. The service style is simple and informal, suited to couples, families and independent travellers who want a low-cost base near the sea instead of a polished resort. Guests who want to explore can use the nearby bus stops for the Old Town or rent a car for trips to Elafonisi, Balos and the Samaria Gorge. Visitors should confirm room facilities, family-room configurations, breakfast hours and the opening season with the hotel before booking. Nea Chora also has a small fishing shelter and a well-regarded stretch of waterfront promenade suited to morning walks.
