Had a really good stay for family and friends holidays, and will definitely go back there again. Everything was really good, so were great views over the garden and towards the sea. The location in a residential area was quiet and magnificent for us.

The decoration at Icarus Hotel was absolutely delightful. The hotel had a modern and stylish ambiance, which I truly appreciated. The general areas, such as the reception and pool area, were well-maintained and pleasant to spend time in. As a senior woman, I found the hotel to be easily accessible, with no stairs or obstacles hindering my mobility. It was a great relief to be able to move around freely and comfortably during my stay.
I would kindly request a more attentive and helpful approach from the children working at the hotel. While they were present during the limited hours, I believe having staff available throughout the day would greatly enhance the overall experience for senior guests.

This hotel is a real gem! The attention to detail is evident throughout, from the modern furnishings to the jacuzzi in the rooms. The staff are friendly and always ready to help, and the location in a nice, non-touristy area is a definite plus. The prices are great value for money, and the breakfast selection is varied and delicious.
All was more than satisfactory, no improvements needed.

Our Christmas stay at this hotel was fantastic. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with modern amenities. The pool was a great feature, especially for the kids, with a shallow end for them to play in. The location was perfect, with a variety of good restaurants nearby and easy access to parking. The staff, especially Eli, went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. Eli helped us find a reliable pediatrician when one of our daughters got sick, which was a huge relief. we highly recommend this hotel for a wonderful Christmas getaway.
There were a couple of minor issues during our stay at this hotel. the lack of storage in the rooms was a bit inconvenient.

Had the pleasure of spending Christmas here with my family. the hotel was amazing from the warm welcome at check-in to the modern and stylish rooms. the location is perfect, just a short walk to the beautiful and serene beach. the complimentary breakfast was definitely a highlight with a delicious selection of local pastries and coffee. Another perk was the helpful and friendly staff who provided us with wonderful recommendations for local restaurants and attractions. the extra touch of Christmas decorations in the lobby and room added to the festive atmosphere.
Although the rooms were beautifully designed, we did encounter a few minor issues such as the dim lighting in the bathroom and the hooks falling off the walls. the plumbing needed some attention as the shower drain was slow.

During Christmas, we stayed at this hotel and enjoyed the lovely laid-back atmosphere. The spacious and stylish apartments were a real highlight, as well as the easy access to the nearby beach. Despite being a bit further away from the city center, the hotel's location was perfect for us as we wanted some peace and quiet for the holidays.
Our stay wasn't perfect. Although the apartments were spacious and well-equipped, we did encounter some maintenance issues during our stay.

I recently stayed at a hotel in Chania and I must say, I had a fantastic experience. First of all, the location was perfect - not too touristy, but still close to the beach and other amenities. Secondly, the staff at this hotel were amazing! They were so friendly and helpful, giving us great recommendations for things to do in the area. The rooms were also modern and well-furnished, with a jacuzzi in some of them which was a nice touch. Lastly, the breakfast at this hotel was delicious and it really set us up for the day.
Everything was spot on, I couldn't have asked for more.
