Madonna Studios

A helpful hostess

Pros: Just off the harbour, the little street was quiet and peaceful. The old house was charming. The host was ever willing to help and aboslutely determined to feed us breakfast.

Cons: Parking was about 10 mins away (you cant park at the nearest space as thats only for residents. It was not a true two bedroom as there was no door between the living area and the one bedroom and the other beds were in the main living space. It was clearly stated in the description but I just did not register. Old house has its charms but also has flying ants, creaking doors and a small bathroom. All part of the charm.

Pros: Oh my goodness, such a magical stay with Thomais! She really made us feel at home. The building is beautiful and Chania was delightful, we couldn't have asked for a better way to end our stay in Crete.

Chania was made all the more special by our stay at Madonna Studios.

Pros: We loved staying with Thomais at Madonna Studios. Our rooms were delightful, the beds very comfortable and the location was superb. We were made to feel very welcome by Thomasia. Her hospitality is exceptional and nothing was too much trouble.

Cons: No complaints at all.

Lovely room and Thomais is wonderful.

Pros: Great location, plenty of space, quiet. Great showers, lots of hot water. Thomais is great and goes the extra mile.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Thomasia is an incresible host. She welcomed us with a big smile and some homemade sweets and gave us good tips during all our stay.

Amazing hostess, amazingly positioned accommodation, great stay

Pros: The apartment is very well positioned, a 2 minute walk from the old harbor waterfront. The apartment was clean and there was Greek Olive Oil apple cake waiting for us, made personally by Thomias. She is incredible and has been the hostess for 25+ years. She was very friendly and became our kids Greek grandmother during our stay. There is airco which was needed due to the temperature while we were there - a small but functional kitchenette with a small fridge. It was the perfect base for us to spend 3 days in Chania. We should have booked for 5 days as the old city is incredible. The apartment had a balcony as well as a private courtyard. Plenty of outside space for the 4 of us. Wifi was good and the bathroom fine for 4 people sharing. I highly recommend this apartment.

Cons: My fault for not reading the description properly - booking.com lists the property as a 2 bedroom - but the description states it is not 2 bedrooms but 2 or 3 additional beds in the living area/kitchenette. While it was fine for 3 days, it was a little cramped for 4 of us. However, as mentioned above, it is an amazing apartment, very well positioned and we would definitely return to stay there.

Just like visiting family 😍

Pros: The most amazing hospitality where we felt we were visiting family. Was sad to leave!! Highly recommend.

Cons: Nothing, loved it all 😍

Perfect location, perfect stay for Chania

Pros: Perfectly situated at the entrance of Chania Old Town, requiring little walking distance. Charming street and guesthouse, hosted by fantastic landlady Thomais, who keeps rooms clean and takes exceptional care of her guests.

One of the best stays I have ever had and truly hope to return and stay longer.

Pros: Location is perfect. Room was beautiful, clean and bright, high ceiling and many high windows. So tasteful in all aspects. Big balcony. The host simply wonderful. I highly recommend Madonna Suites.

Cons: Nothing I did not like.

Perfect!

Pros: It was characterful, spacious, clean and conveniently located. We loved the delightful Thomais who looked after us so perfectly! Thank you Thomais.
