Etz Hayyim Synagogue is a few steps from Shalom Luxury Rooms Kondilaki, while Archaeological Museum of Chania is 100 metres from the property.

Perfect location in the old town, a room (on the second floor with a spacious balcony overlooking the backyard and a bed that was one of the best I've slept in during my travels) was spotless and functional, just as it was made for us. The wonderful owner 🩷 arranged a taxi ride for us from a reliable driver to the first morning flight. Everything worked from picking up the key from the shop downstairs, thanks namesake, to leaving 10+
