Palaiochora is a small town in Crete, located some 77 km south of Chania, on the southwest coast of Crete and occupies a small peninsula 400m wide and 700m long. The town is set along 11 km of coastline bordering the Libyan Sea.
We booked a 4-star hotel here in June 2017, during our about 3 weeks long trip around the Island of Crete.
In today's article, I've listed top hotels, apartments and guest houses in Palaiochora, according to actual user reviews on Booking.com.
When heading to Palaiochora you should be willing to spend about 30-100 EUR for a good apartment/hotel/ guest house - which IMHO is fantastic.
