Cheap hotels in Chania: quality stays without overpaying
Chania is one of Crete's most visited cities, yet it remains one of the more affordable destinations in the Greek islands if you know where to look. The selection below starts at 45 €/night at the Angela in Daratsos, a neighbourhood just west of the city centre that keeps prices low while staying well connected. From there, options climb gently to around 60 €/night, covering everything from a compact 1-star economy room to well-rated apartment suites, all with guest scores between 4.5 and a perfect 5 out of 5.
Affordable neighbourhoods to consider in Chania
Daratsos and the broader Chania city centre are your best bets for low nightly rates. The Old Town carries a small premium for its iconic Venetian lanes and harbour views, but even there The 48 Suites and Camere Maritima come in at 52 to 58 €/night, making them surprisingly accessible. Nea Chora, a quiet residential neighbourhood bordering a sandy beach west of the harbour, is represented here by Elia City Apartments at 60 €/night, ideal if you prefer a local, unhurried atmosphere over the tourist bustle of the centre.

Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest hotel available in Chania right now?+
The Angela in Daratsos is the most affordable option on this list at 45 €/night, with a strong guest rating of 4.6 out of 5. Daratsos sits just a few kilometres west of central Chania and is well served by local buses, making it a practical base for exploring the city and the nearby coastline without paying Old Town prices.
Are budget hotels in Chania well rated by guests?+
Exceptionally so. Every hotel on this list scores at least 4.5 out of 5, and several exceed 4.8. Camere Maritima in the Old Town holds a perfect 5 out of 5, while the Tina Economy Hotel, a 1-star property priced at 49 €/night, scores an impressive 4.8. Budget in Chania rarely means a compromise on cleanliness or hospitality.
Is it worth staying in the Old Town on a tight budget?+
Yes, if you prioritise location. The 48 Suites and Camere Maritima both sit inside or directly beside the Venetian Old Town at 52 and 58 €/night respectively. Staying there means you can walk to the lighthouse, the covered market and the harbour restaurants without transport costs, which can offset a slightly higher nightly rate compared with outlying neighbourhoods.
What tips help you pay even less when booking a cheap hotel in Chania?+
Travelling in May, early June or September rather than July and August is the single most effective way to reduce costs, as peak-summer demand pushes prices up across the board. Choosing apartments such as Elia City Apartments or Trianon Luxury Apartments and Suites also lets you prepare some meals yourself, cutting daily food spend significantly. Finally, booking directly through a comparison platform as early as possible tends to secure the lowest available rate before inventory tightens.
