Friendly family run hotel with homie rooms
I picked the hotel for couple of reasons First the parking seemed to be good outside when I looked on google map. Second was the pictures off the rooms. They seemed so much more homie compared to other places that are all white with white IKEA furnitures. I was not disapointed of neither. It is only a short walk to the beaches. And there are many nice restaurants around. Use the other guests recomendation. Many of them did I learn have been coming back to this hotel for 20 years. Also very easy to take the bus into town. As the bus stop is more or less directly outside. One Lidle and another big super market is also just beside the hotel. Of course Lidle is not that good so go to the other one. Possible to make your own breakfast. But I ordered different breakfast every morning From couple of fried eggs and omelete to Greek salad. All good. If only one thing to complain is that the shower was tiny. But if other people with rollator walkers can use it. Then I should not complain :)

Best of the Best
My partner Wendy, My son Peter and my Grandson Kazuki who is 11 years old all agree it was the cleanest, friendliest Hotel we have ever stayed in. Like many desperately in need of a holiday we could not have asked for better. As many before us have said the Family who run it are just delightful. Helpful, Happy. Pool was large enough and so relaxing to lay around with the small bar also open at night. We got Taxi's in the Town but there were also several Restaurants near by.. There is a lift, showers small but good enough. Would Highly recommend this Hotel to Family's couples, singles, anybody . They deserve a Gold Medal

I couldn't have asked for more
I couldn't have asked for a nice stay. Gina and her family made me feel very welcome, with a mix of great hospitality and good humour. The rooms were spacious, pleasant and clean. If I had to choose between Sun City, and some of the five star resorts down the road, I would choose Sun City in an instant. It is everything I love about Greece. The location is great too, once you figure it all out. There are two incredible beaches within 500 metres or so, and the busses to Chania are easy to hop on and off of - talking little more than 15 minutes. I hope to return in the next couple of years. It's a great spot.

Nice spot to relax, would definitely come again!
Came for an overnight stay while in the area for work to get a bit of R&R. Everyone here was really friendly and the room was very clean. The area was a few blocks outside the area of Kydonia with all the restaurants, so it was a very easy walk but also nice and quiet for sleeping. Selection of beaches within easy walking distance, with a good mix of fine sand for sitting under an umbrella, areas to snorkel and some caves to explore. I'd be happy to come back again; definitely great value and the location can't be beat. For North Americans it's the fairly European standard of two twin beds together vice a queen bed (in the room I had anyway). I've seen the same in three and four star hotels, so that's something you can generally expect. Anyway, nice spot, family friendly, would recommend.

Great bed get hotel with great host!
We arrived in Chania late evening (around midnight). Gina the owner was waiting for and took the time to show us our room and made sure we had everything we need. The hotel is comfortable, clean and very welcoming. They even have a lift to the upper floors! Gina gave us all the necessary information and advice to do the Samaria Gorge trail, visit the beaches and old town! Definitely recommend...

Wonderful staff!!
Gina and her lovely family run sun city hotel. They were very hospitable and welcoming and really made the stay more enjoyable. They were very helpful and willing to give us lots of advice on the sites to see, transport and restaurants. Gina went above and beyond and was very kind and offered to help us change our flight out of Crete. The room was always clean and it was in a very safe location. It was only 10-15 minutes away from Old Town and the Venetian Harbour. It is only 2 mins walk from the beach and their is a great home made pizza restaurant opposite the hotel as well as a tavern and another restaurant down the road. The only negative points were that the beds were very hard and the shower was very small. All in all it was a lovely stay!

From the moment I arrived at Sun City they treated me like family. The grounds are immaculate and the beach, restaurants and bus to Chania are conveniently located nearby. The patio and pool were great for lounging on hot afternoons and the outside bar was a great place to relax and socialize after a long day of sightseeing. I really enjoyed my stay at Sun City and will return next year with my family.

A little bit of paradise and more
We have stayed in other hotels in Crete but this is the first time we have stayed at Sun City and it surpassed all of our expectations. The hosts were extremely helpful , friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The hotel is exceptionally well maintained and the room was very clean. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen facilities were more than adequate allowing us to make make dinner in the room a couple of evenings and sit on the balcony to enjoy it. The hotel is in a quiet location so it is very relaxing and the pool and facilities are a pleasure to use. Holidaying in this hotel is a thoroughly enjoyable experience making it one that we will definitely repeat.

Well run, clean hotel with great service
Just got back from my stay, had a great time and would definitely recommend this hotel. Hotel: The room was very clean and had a small kitchen which was great to make a few meals, so good for those wanting to travel on a budget. The room has air conditioning, great as it was quite warm at night, and a balcony perfect for eating outside, which as the room I stayed in was in the back overlooked some nice gardens. Service: I went on organised day trips which Gina very kindly arranged and got the times and general information, meaning all I had to do was say where I wanted to go for the day. The room was cleaned daily and had fresh bedding and towels daily. Location/amenities: The hotel is a 10 minute bus ride from Chania Town and is surrounded by some good local Tavernas and two beaches, plus there is a bar at hotel. There are also several Super Markets close by. The hotel also has a swimming pool, although I did not go in, which looked very good.

This is a family run hotel and they all make you feel a part of their family. My wife and I spent a wonderful week with them in September and will stay there again when we return to Crete.
