Domus Renier Boutique Hotel
Overview
Domus Renier Boutique Hotel is a small yet impressive luxury boutique hotel in Chania, Crete. It consists of nine guestrooms and suites, all different from one another, and most offer a sea view of Chania harbor and the Egyptian Lighthouse. The accommodations are furnished with specially designed furniture and decorated with unique articles. Some rooms feature adorned ceilings, a testament to the Cretan Renaissance period of the building. Each and every one is equipped with comfort, luxury, and modern technology in mind.
An architectural masterpiece built as a private residence for a noble family in 1608, the Domus Renier Boutique Hotel opened in 2016. Beautifully restored and renovated, the hotel still retains the classic historical elements that reflect the era in which members of the Renier family lived for several hundred years. The hotel’s beautiful seafront location gives guests a glimpse into the city’s fabled past, where it served as the first defense against invading armies from the Roman Empire, the Byzantine peninsula, and the Ottoman Empire.
The hotel is located in the old port of Chania, the second largest city on the island of Crete, and also the capital of the local government region (municipality) which bears its name. Chania is on the north coast of Crete, around 60 km (37 miles) west of Rethymno and 135 km (84 miles) west of Heraklion. Often referred to as the "Venice of the East," Chania is a city that is divided into two parts: the old town, and the larger modern one. Chania old town surrounds the old harbor port, the basis of the development of the whole urban area and the modern city. The old town was once surrounded by Venetian fortifications dating back to 1538, but today only the eastern and western parts remain.
Domus Renier Boutique Hotel, a member of Historic Hotels Worldwide since 2017, dates back to 1608.
Doges, politicians, diplomats, army commanders and countesses have lived and died, loved and hated, pulled political strings and ruled from the rooms of this very townhouse.
