Plaza 1866 Superior City Rooms

Built around the perimeter of Platia 1866, one of Chania's most active neighbourhood squares, Plaza 1866 places guests above the daily market stalls and kafeneions that give the square its rhythm from early morning onward.

Superior city rooms face either the square itself or the quieter rear lanes of the Splantzia quarter, one of the old town's best-preserved Ottoman-era districts. The Venetian harbour waterfront is a seven-minute walk west; the Byzantine museum on Theotokopoulou another five minutes beyond that.

With 365 reviews averaging 9.5, the property's consistency stands out for a small city-room format. Chania's covered market hall sits one block south, making the address practical for self-catering guests picking up local cheeses and olives.
