“Irida Hotel strikes a pleasant balance, situated near enough to Chania's vibrant Venetian harbor, yet removed from its intense bustle. The rooms, particularly those with sea views, offer a vista worth waking up to, and the breakfast-a showcase of Cretan products-tells a story of its own. What stands out is the attentiveness; this isn't just a stay, it's a genuine welcome.”
