Hilton Garden Inn Chania City

Hilton Garden Inn Chania City is a Hilton-branded city hotel at 65 Zymvrakakidon Street in the Chrysopigi area, south of the Old Town of Chania in western Crete, Greece. It opened in 2025 and has 48 rooms, making it a compact modern property rather than a large resort. The location is about 15 minutes on foot from the Venetian harbour and from Nea Chora beach, which suits visitors who want a quieter residential base with easy access to both the historic centre and the sea. Rooms are offered as double and twin rooms with air conditioning and Wi-Fi, in the contemporary, functional style typical of the Garden Inn brand. The hotel has a seasonal outdoor pool, which is a useful cooling-off spot in the Cretan summer, a restaurant serving breakfast and meals, and a 24-hour fitness centre. Paid parking is available, a notable advantage for visitors who hire a car to explore beyond Chania, since parking inside the Old Town is difficult. Typical high-season double rates are around EUR 110-230 per night, placing the hotel in the mid-range bracket and often below the large seafront resorts. Service is geared to both leisure and business travellers, with standard Hilton front-desk assistance and help with taxis and excursions. The position makes it a practical base for road trips to Elafonisi, Balos, the Samaria Gorge and the Rethymno side of the island, while the Old Town's restaurants remain a short taxi ride or a reasonable walk away. Because the hotel is new, the facilities are modern, though it lacks the historic character of the Old Town hotels. Visitors who prefer atmosphere in the lanes over convenience and parking may favour an Old Town property instead.
