Reviews for Royal Sun

Review 1:Absolutely no negative comment to make

Review 2:Lovely room even though we had the budget room! Excellent staff facilities and food beautiful view of Chania and very frequent FREE shuttle service into Chania already booked another stay

Review 3:The most beautiful hotel in Chania. Beautiful views, not far from the town at all, free mini bus to and from the town. Staff were the friendliest most helpful staff ever. Taxi from the airport was only €20 which was less than we expected. Can not say enough about how great this place was. Gym and washing machines to use at hotel. Pool area gorgeous. Loads to choose from on the hotel menu. We also rented a scooter for the day for €30 and the staff recommended where we should go on our trip. Loved every minute of it. Stayed in Room 402 with sea view. Best views.

Review 4:Nothing. Every was excellent!!

Review 5:The crew was wonderful, delicious breakfast that worth the price, free shatels to the city and back to the hotel evrey half hour from 10:30am-12:00pm. The best view you can wish for, pool, gym. I'm recommending taking a car and travel around hania, there is a lot of beautiful nature to see there. and, by the way, the city is fool of shipping for the women's

Review 6:I liked the restaurant staff very much and some of the front desk staff (some were a bit curt). The location was beautiful from the perspective of view but was quite a walk from downtown. They offered transport though but wasn't that easy getting them to pick up without a phone working in Greece!

Review 7:Staff friendliness, location of the hotel (fantastic view), wonderful breakfast. Even the availability of the facility to print my boarding pass (for my return flight) from the hotel was greatly appreciated.

Review 8:would be nice if the customers could avoid smoking in the most beautiful breakfast-room

Review 9:Fantastic view over Chania; delicious breakfast; friendly people;

Review 10:Some of the fitness gym machines were a bit old or broken. Walls between rooms are thin, so we did pick up noise from others.

Review 11:Nice staff, fabulous view, and super breakfast buffet. The shuttle to the town center was a wonderful service with really nice drivers.

Review 12:We like everything about this hotel! We had a room with city view (overlooking the pool). Nice looking room, lot of space, comfortable, very quiet. Nice pool. You are less than 10 minutes from Chania City Center. We use the shuttle 1 time during the evening to go out for dinner. The bus was on time and very comfortable. There is not a lot of restaurants near the hotel, but there's a supermarket and a nice bakery.

Review 13:Be careful if the door is left open it will not be able to sleep at night because of the mosquitos!

Review 14:Great hotel, clean and modern. Great pool. Free transportation to the city and back every half hour. City view is fantastic! Close to Chania airport.

Review 15:There was Nothing we didn't like.- except the lack of a box of tissues in the room.

Review 16:Position,staff, hotel decor ,pool, complimentary water,breakfast,free parking and wifi.and although we did not use it we saw that the complimentary bus trips into town and back were very helpful to guests.

Review 17:Bathroom!its just too tiny.door on shower wouldn't close properly so you end up having water all over bathroom.

Review 21:It was very close to Chania airport, with wonderful views over the town. The staff were all very friendly, helpful and cheerful. Breakfast and dinner was also very good.

Review 22:The staff were pretty great (despite the grumpiest ever man on reception, both at check-in and on departure three days apart). The view and pool are lovely, and the food is decent. The shuttle to and from town is a great service.

Review 23:The rooms with mountain view has bad view on the road behind the hotel so it is better to take view to the sea and Chania. The air conditioner did not work properly in our room but it is not so important because we were here 1 night. No beach near to swim.

Review 24:Great breakfast. Good staff. Very good view to the city. Free Bus to the old city and back. Pool. Gym. Good hotel to stay for 2-3 days to take a look on Chania region.

Review 25:Receptionist didn't pay attention to us and continued to talk at the phone. Parking space can be crowded. Distant from the city center, nothing interesting around the hotel, but they provide free shuttle every 30 minutes.

Review 26:Brand-new hotel, with all comforts, it feels very luxurious. Very rich breakfast. Terace with a view over the whole city and the sea. Free swimming pool for guests.

Review 27:The location of the hotel is great! Panoramic view of the hole city. Free shuttle from 10 am until 00:00 to the city market and back ( Amazing)! Ugh pool, the nicest staff. I would definitely come back to this hotel.

Review 28:Not to keen on the over use of sauces on some of the meals. Would have liked more Greek specialities on the menu

Review 29:location first class being away from town but just a 10 minute curtesy bus ride away from the centre. Good information from the staff with a first class tour booking to the Samarian Gorge

Review 30:Boro na pw oti mou aresan ta panda!! Tha eithela na evxaristiso ollo to prosopiko tou Royal Sun!! Elpizw na sas ksanaepiskefto tou xronou!! Bravo paidia kanetai uperoxei douleia!!!

Review 31:Had a problem adjusting the shower to prevent wetting the floor. Some information would have been useful on temperature control to indicate hot and cold. Good towels and toiletries

Review 32:The most comfortable bed and pillow I have ever experienced. The free shuttle service to Chania. Friendliness of staff. Cleanliness of hotel and grounds

Review 33:Location is out of town which is fine because there are frequent drop-offs/pick-ups from Chania town. Unfortunately our pick up didn't arrive. Mistaken phone call from reception in the morning and they didn't apologise and just hung up without saying goodbye when we explained they had the wrong room.

Review 34:Nice hotel with a big pool.

Review 35:Couldn't fault the place although I would have been disappointed had I not had sea/pool view room. Views are all at front of hotel .

Review 36:Staff were amazing. Beds were very comfy. Views were outstanding. Pool area was spotless. Food was great and huge portions - also reasonably priced. Bus transfer was very handy also.

Review 37:Everything functions perfect!!An unforgetable experience magical view very clean immediate responce of the personel bus service on time with most sympathetic drivers I have no more words to describe A PERFECT STAY?!!

Review 38:We had no bad experience.

Review 39:The staff were very friendly and helpful. The pool is lovely. A lovely view of the city from the hotel terrace restaurant. A very relaxed feel throughout. The shuttle bus to and from the city a great facility. .

Review 40:The noisy cleaners in the morning.

Review 41:Friendly staff,lovely room plus the free transport to the town is a very good idea and of course the amazing food too!

Review 42:The Gym is not so good and old stuff inside Gym Room.The staff are Helpful but lazy and Not customer oriented.The receptionists Keep on talking on the Phone for long times.

Review 43:Acceptable Breakfast-3 Km far from city Center-Very clean and comfortable-

Review 44:What a wonderful hotel! Great service and very supportive staff, especially Nikos at the reception, always answered our questions with a smile. Free shuttle too- 10 mins to town

Review 45:If I were being really picky, the only thing I'd say needed fixing is the hot counter at breakfast. The hotplates didn't really keep the food piping hot so maybe fill up a little and more frequently.

Review 46:This is a perfect location with the most lovely, friendly staff I've every come across, especially little Maria with her big smile every day. The beds are extremely comfortable and rooms have modern furnishings done to a very high standard. Beautiful, peaceful pool with fantastic views over the city.

Review 47:The location is a bit outside of town and up a steep narrow road (currently under construction).

Review 48:The hotel had a very nice pool and a great shuttle to Chania old city. The breakfast was also very extensive.

Review 49:Excellent standard of cleanliness, all needs catered for and very friendly staff. Fabulous views from restaurant. Out of town, on mountain side ( which is why it has such a wonderful view) but frequent free bus service from hotel reception to town and back.

Review 50:The local architectural adventures were distracting and disappointing. The wifi was great in the breakfast area but lacked strength in the room.

Review 51:The staff are friendly and accommodating and always ready to greet you warmly. The view is intoxicating and was very easy to get immersed in the antics of the birds and the beauty of the mountains, country side and the sea - a very relaxing experience! The

Review 52:The worse experience I've ever had. The behavior of the staff is out of discussion. They charged me as one person sleeping in 2 rooms in one night. The food was not good and you didn't have from what to choose for your breakfast or dinner. Is not all inclusive,there are selected drinks and food only between some hours. Internet €8/day, no parking places,you have to carry your luggage on stairs from the main street to the reception. Sorry,but nothing good to say...I send them letter to fix the financial problems,but due to the fact that I got no answer, my lawyer will take care. I don't like cheaters.

Review 53:No complaints!

Review 54:This hotel was a huge surprise to us on our honeymoon. Even with bad weather the staff, led by Nikolas, did a phenomenal job!! What a night and day difference from our experience with service in Heraklion and Santorini.

Review 55:Hotel only provides 2 small bottles of water per day. Was not offered tap water and had to pay a marked up price for water. I recommend buying water in town. One staff member at reception was not at all helpful with directions to Balos Beach. Told them our gps couldn't locate the area and he just told us it was very famous and to follow road signs. No suggestion of what road to take or a nearby town to find.

Review 56:Beautiful resort with free shuttle to downtown Chania. Huge pool with lots of lounge chairs. Affordable, tasty dinners with large portions and complimentary raki after meal. Rooms match pictures. Stunning sunsets and views of the city. Huge breakfast to choose from. Great value for the money.

Review 57:Quiet pool over looking the town was amazing and free shuttle bus throughout the day and night meant it wasn't a problem being located out of the town.

Review 58:Smell of cigarettes in our room . Our room was for not smoking but there was annoying cigarette smell , I don't know from bed or sth.

Review 59:Very nice hotel, with beautiful Chania view. Good standard and very good price/value ratio. Also free and quite often city centre transport was a plus

Review 60:some rooms facing the swimming pool on the zero floor has no privacy because of the pool.

Review 61:Great location, great views, clean hotel and very nice and spacious rooms, lovely swimming pool area, very quiet and the staff is very nice.

Review 62:Didn't book with breakfast because it seemed somewhat overpriced

Review 63:Facilities were always clean Staff was helpful View of Chania is magnificent Offers bus shuttle to the city center (3km) from morning to midnight (I would suggest adding transfers every 2 hours after 00.00)

Review 64:Nothing. Except maybe the "mountain view" room, which is actually with a view at the back of the hotel, but well, it's just to sleep.

Review 65:Excellent hotel ! Super nice rooms and there is a shuttle to go in the center of Hania, so it's not a problem to be on the top of the city, and specially the view is amazing !!!

Review 66:The facilities were modern and clean. The pool and view were amazing! The shuttle to Chania was quick and frequent. The dining facility was really good and great for poolside service. Such a great time!

Review 67:Soft bed matterace, too soft for our backs.

Review 68:Great hotel! We usualy only sleep in the hotels and spend days on the beach or sightseeing, we didn't move from this hotel for 5 days in a row because it was so good and we've had everything we needed. Delicious food, friendly staff, AMAZING view. It deffinietly deserves 5 stars!!!

Review 69:The view of Chania, particularly in the evening; the swimming pool; the helpful staff. Our room was quiet and comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep before our flight home.

Review 70:Breathtaking view, amazing sunset, nice swimming pool, friendly staff, cleanness, free shuttle service....Everything was just perfect! We really enjoyed our stay!

Review 71:Had a little accident with one of reception workers,a bit uninformed,rude and unprofessional. The guy in reception was shouting on us from balcony in the front of everyone about mistake with reservetion.hi was shouting like mad on us "check-out time" while we were in the pool.

Review 72:Everythig was absolutly perfect:)

Review 73:Shower was a little cramped!

Review 74:Amazing staff. Excellent hotel. Can't fault it. Stunning view. Beautiful pool area. Well finished rooms. Don't hesitate to stay here.

Review 75:Extremely good value for money!!!!! Really cheap for the things that offer!! The view is magnificent from the swimming pool. Breakfast is excellent and you should try the moussaka and the pastitsio for lunch-dinner they are ENORMOUS!!

Review 76:the mountain view room we booked was more of a carpark view.

Review 77:Very helpful team keen to help, beautiful nearby woods for walks in the mountain, amazing pool. The free shuttle bus to Chania town made this the best of both by staying in a quiet pool side hotel in the mountains with a wonderful view of the port, yet able to get to the town and back easily! We would definitely stay here again.

Review 78:Friendly staff, tidy and great room. Everyday when we came back to the room we found two bottles of mineral water, and all the bath service (shampoo, body wash and body cream) new again. On the third floor there's the restaurant where we have eaten once and drunk many times (good meals and fantastic cocktails). The view is fantastic, expecially during the sunset. The swimming pool is very beautiful, and the view is amazing like the one of the restaurant. The shuttle service from the hotel to the city centre is very good. What else?  Congratulations!!  10!!

Review 79:Single bed a bit small but not a big deal.

Review 80:Excellent view over the town of Chania,staff very prompt to satisfy your requests and preferences,free shuttle to the town of real convenience,impeccable cleanness of the room.

Review 81:The welcome by front desk was a bit cool. Management get chaotic and this is placed on to staff and clients. It can be unpleasant. Room cleaning staff depended on who was on duty.It would be good if the shuttle brought people to the beach it would have you stay longer.

Review 82:Staff brilliant especially in the evening rotation, Rula, Soto and just great. nicos very helpful with booking. Free shuttle bus great asset

Review 83:Nothing.

Review 84:This hotel was just fabulous. We could not find fault with it. Triple room with a sea view on the poolside was fantastic. The staff were amazing and worked extremely hard to make sure our holiday was awesome.

Review 85:The staff were awesome, always helpful and very friendly. Great food A big pool Room 401 was lovely, great views of the city and the sea (book city/sea view rooms)

Review 86:Weak hairdryer. (Not in all rooms, we had 2 rooms, one hairdryer was a new one) Very nice view of Chania, but you need a car to go to town center, or a 20-30 minute walk.. Needs a spa & a sauna to become a 5star hotel... :)

Review 87:Very nice view. The food was excellent. Really comfortable bed. Nice swimming pool. Very clean and renovated recently... Really kind and helpful staff at the bar and reception. Very quiet location away from traffic and crowds... I recomment this hotel for sure..

Review 89:Very nice Hotel, great position,excellent service, beatiful style & confort. deligtful hotel.

Review 90:Nothing

Review 91:We stayed here at the beginning of our holiday then again at the end of our 18 days. Everything was perfect. The pool is fantastic and the views are amazing. Would definitely stay here again.

Review 92:Location is horrible. Hard to find even with our gps. Had to depend onthe shuttle coz we were afraid of using our car and getting lost! Wewere expecting more from the "sea view" room. We were given abalcony fronting the parking area/entrance. Cold welcome (soindustrial type.. Check in-check out.. Next!) One of the mostdisappointing we've had in Crete.

Review 93:Having an outdoor pool, which is quite rare around the city of Chania.Shuttle service was superb (courteous drivers!).

Review 94:The staff was very friendly especially the driver of the bus! There is free transportation to the centre. The view of the hotel also was amazing and the rooms are really comfortable and big!

Review 95:The rooms could be a little bit cleaner.

Review 96:The location of the Hotel is amazing. The view over Chania Town and the bey is breathtaking. Also the Hotel serves a full and complete breakfast.

Review 97:hotel bus shuttle service for drop off & pick up from hotel to city and return and much needed if you did not have own transport as hotel approx 5 Kms out of town centre

Review 98:1)Swimming pool is large and clean 2) delicious meals 3) Friendly staff 4) Free shuttle bus to downtown (old Chania) 5) very nice rooms (modern and comfortable) 6) Great position and fabulous views of Chania

Review 99:The location was out of town, but there is a free shuttle that compensated for that.

Review 100:Comfort of beds was amazing, pool was great, restaurant was also good!

Review 101:room is little too small for 2 person.

Review 102:the pool is great also the view from the balcony facing the sunset also wonderful. A great place for hanging out and chatting with friends:)

Review 103:hotel is far away from the down town, must use the shuttle bus if we want to look around. otherwise it's a good hotel

Review 104:I have booked a superior room with balcony to the city/sea, we have got the last room at 3rd floor, close to the pool, far from the other noise and with nice view. room is clean and comfortable (gratis water in minibar and complimentaries in bathroom). We had an early morning trip to Samaria gorge, they gave as packed breakfast, which was sufficient for the whole day. Pool was clear, guests were not noisy. the shuttle bus goes frequently to the old town and back

Review 105:Reception is too busy to be helpful for our travel.

Review 106:Very good hotel! The room is comfortable, clean and with beautiful view. Breakfast is tasty with all kinds of food. The mini bus driver is kind.

Review 107:Everything was ok

Review 108:A nice play to visit Chania with nice views of the town, and beautifulsunsets. They give you transfers to the town. Nice swimming pool

Review 109:A little out of the way but an excellent transfer service put on by the hotel.

Review 110:The overall experience at this hotel was excellent. We stayed in room 402 and had fantastic views. The room itself was very contemporary and the beds was extremely comfortable. I can't praise the staff enough for their politeness and friendly attitude at all times. I have travelled many times and stayed at a number of lovely hotels. However I have to say that it would be very hard to beat this standard on all levels. The food was excellent, the pool was beautiful and the accommodation was very contemporary and comfortable. Overall it was a first class stay. Thank you to all the staff who worked so hard to make our stay pleasurable. Especially Rula who organised the surprise flowers and decorated the dining table for my sister and brother-in-law's anniversary. Thank you again for ensuring our stay was wonderful.

Review 111:A lovely clean and peaceful hotel with fantastic pool and view. The staff are the nicest And most helpful people ever.the bus shuttle into town is brilliant. As hotels go, I absolutely loved it

Review 112:Not one bad moment.

Review 113:A warm welcome, especially for our two exuberant young children, and then a very comfortable room with a dreamy terrace and view, a beautiful pool - great for children - and sensational breakfast. Couldn't possibly ask for more. We quickly booked additional nights...

Review 114:We wanted to leave our luggage in left luggage as our flight was going later on that night. The new person on the desk told us we could leave it in the reception area opposite the desk which we knew did not have someone behind it at all times. We took our luggage into Chania with us and used the locked left luggage facility in the bus station; we did not fell that this was a safe place to leave our luggage - we had a lot of valuable person items in our luggage.

Review 115:We were on the fifth floor, our daughters on the fourth - the view from our 'sea view' balcony room over the city and sea was beautiful. We arrived late at night and the city looked amazing. On waking the following morning, and going onto the balcony, the view was again amazing. Large pool with plenty of seating facilities. Large selection of breakfast items in the morning from the buffet style breakfast. The man who greeting us the night we arrived and was still on duty the following morning was a pleasure to deal with. The room overall was very clean and comfortable with lots of space and the added bonus of coffee making facilities in the room. :)

Review 116:I am not evaluating this hotel with higher evaluations because I found out that the airconditioning of our room was really in bad condition and smelly. It seemed it was never cleaned before. I cleaned the filters myself but the smell from the inside of its fan (which was black beacause of the dirt) was so bad we couldn't use it at all. Staff tried to make it better, but still its condition was so bad we didn't dare to use it. So pitty, because in the summer you need the airconditioning and I am writting this so thoroughly because the rest of the hotel was so nice...So, I wish the management can make a good service of there airconditions or even replace them.

Review 117:This hotel is renovated and is really nice and relaxing. Taking into consideration of its price list, it offers very good quality of accomodations, including a very nice pool for relaxing. It is set on a hill above Chania town, so the view from the rooms, the restaurant and the pool is great.

Review 118:only stayed for 2 nights while in chania, had breakfast twice and dinner one night, food very good and very reasonable, hotel had a touch of class.

Review 119:Location was a little out of centre of Chania but free shuttle bus every 15 mins was perfect. Of our 3 night stay, we only went to Chania once as the hotel had everything!

Review 120:Great start to our Cretan holiday! Great pool, staff and service. Everything immaculate and clean.

Review 121:wi-fi is not so good in some places of the hotel. Breakfast a little bit expensive.

Review 122:Amazing view from the restaurant, you can enjoy your breakfast or dinner with the best view in Chania. Very nice rooms and friendly and always smiling staff :). Great swimming pool not too crowded. The food served at the restaurant for dinner is very tasty and cheap for the quality and especially quantity. The price of the room is very reasonable for what you get compared to other hotels.

Review 123:There is niether SPA nor beautition in the hotel...

Review 124:The view was fantastic.The sunset from the balcony was breathtaking. We spend only two days in the hotel but we really like it.The shuttle bus was so handy and drivers nice and polite...Swimming pool area so clean.There is an option to ring the bar and make an order from the swiming pool.The drinks we ordered always came with packet of crisps..something small but worth to underline it.

Review 125:Wi-fi quite slow in some areas of hotel.

Review 126:Very friendly, helpful staff. Exceptionally clean hotel. Lovely pool andviews. Food excellent. Free shuttle bus to town & back.

The Fine Print
