Scala de Faro is a small, historic boutique hotel in Chania, Crete. Because it is fairly small and is in a very old building, you will have to walk a flight of stairs to get to the rooms and the small elevator (although there is accommodation for the handicapped). Be aware that it is located in the middle of the main walkway along the port (although the entrance is on the street behind the port) and can be a little difficult to find. However, once you locate it and go upstairs, the rooms are completely modern and beautiful. The delightful breakfasts are served on the second floor and the staff are all helpful and charming. There is a door and stairs that go down to the port side. Old Town Chania does not permit cars for most of the day. You may have to walk with your bags to get to the hotel. Despite these various inconveniences, Scala de Faro is one of the nicest boutique hotels I've ever stayed in. The location is fabulous, as you can walk to most of the places you will want to visit in Chania. The views could not be better. I highly recommend it.

In 30 years of traveling, this was the most accommodating hotel I have ever stayed at. 10/10 all around. There were two women in particular, I wished I had their names, but they attended to every detail of my stay. If they are reading this, thanks again from Ohio!

Wow. We have a room with a balcony over looking the harbor and directly across from the lighthouse. What more could one ask? Enjoying the wonderful area from the privacy of your room is truly a great experience. Rooms are comfortable and beautiful. Breakfast is included which is always a bonus when traveling. You do have to walk to the hotel but our driver brought our bags for us. The hotel will bring the bags to your room, no elevator from 1st to 2nd floor but they have a chair lift for those that can not climb. Great shopping and dining in the area.
