Historic 100-year-old studios in Chania's old town
Accommodations
Housed in a restored 100-year-old building, Odyssey Studios are split into 2 spaces and open to a sunny balcony or veranda. Each studio features a kitchenette with fridge, cooking hobs and electric kettle. The Apartment with Terrace and Balcony offers a private rooftop terrace with views of the White Mountains, while the Apartment with Courtyard provides a private courtyard off the back bedroom.
Services
Free WiFi is provided throughout the property and the hotel offers an airport shuttle service. Additional services include car hire, shuttle service, and babysitting/child services. Express check-in/check-out, luggage storage, and safety deposit boxes are available for guests.
Location
Odyssey Studios are located in a quiet pedestrian street in the heart of Chania, 200 meters from the Municipal Market of Chania. Walking to the old town takes no more than 2 minutes, and the Venetian harbour is a short walk away. Chania International Airport is 11 km from the property, and the main KTEL bus station is a 12-minute flat walk.
Experiences
The hosts offer a morning walking tour of Chania with Kostas, which covers local history and hidden gems. Tour or class about local culture is available, and Xenia can book excursions such as the trip to Elafonisi. A traditional Greek music taverna called Adespoto is located right across from the studios, providing live music in the evenings.
Hospitality
Hosts Xenia and Kostas meet guests at arrival and carry luggage upstairs, welcoming them with homemade treats like yoghurt and fruits from their garden. During the stay, guests receive little gifts such as kumquat liquor and compote from the hosts' own produce.
