Hilton announced a franchise agreement with Tsiledakis S.A., to open Imperial Flair Chania Old Town, Curio Collection by Hilton, which will join two Curio Collection by Hilton hotels in Crete. Set to open in 2026, the 85-room hotel will take a prime beachfront location in the picturesque town of Chania and all guest rooms will feature a private pool.
Imperial Flair Chania Old Town, Curio Collection is located at Akti Kanari, Nea Chora, Chania, 73131, just a 20-minute drive from Chania International Airport. The new hotel will feature two dining outlets, including a speciality rooftop restaurant, indoor and outdoor pools, a fitness facility and a spa. There will also be meeting space for business travellers, and events and retail options are available from the hotel’s two onsite shopping outlets. The hotel will be located on the western seafront of Chania, right beside the Venetian Port and the Old Town, where the Municipality of Chania has approved a study for the redevelopment of the coastal front.
Andreas Koukas, director of development, Greece & Cyprus, Hilton, said, “We’re excited to continue our impressive growth momentum in Greece with this latest signing announcement. In the last month alone, we’ve announced our third hotel in Crete, Imperial Flair Chania Old Town, Curio Collection by Hilton, and opened two hotels – Domes Aulus Elounda and Lindian Village Beach Resort Rhodes. In partnership with owners such as Tsiledakis S.A., we’re going from strength to strength and look forward to expanding the presence of our world-class brands in Greece in the years to come."
Labros Tsiledakis, chief operating officer of Tsiledakis S.A. said, "We’re thrilled to be working with Hilton to deliver what will undoubtedly be a fantastic addition to the Cretan hotel market. This unique, characterful hotel will capture Crete’s charm and offer guests an indulgent experience, with private swimming pools, direct access to a beach and modern upscale accommodations. We’re looking forward to our future relationship with Hilton in the Greek market, capitalising on Hilton’s strong commercial engines and our local knowledge to deliver a high-quality hospitality product in the heart of Chania."
