The Tsiledakis Group has announced its newest project, Hilton Chania Old Town, expanding its growing presence in the Greek hospitality sector. Positioned at the entrance to Chania’s storied Old Town, the resort is due to open its doors in May 2026. Developed in collaboration with Hilton and to be managed by Hotelleading, the property will embody both classic Cretan charm and modern sophistication.
Comprising 85 thoughtfully designed rooms and suites—each boasting its own private pool—the hotel offers uninterrupted sea views from every floor and an impressive rooftop infinity pool overlooking the Cretan coast. Open throughout the year, Hilton Chania Old Town will provide an ideal retreat for international travellers drawn to Crete’s beauty, culture, and cuisine.
Steeped in centuries of history, Chania remains a living monument to its past as ancient Cydonia. Hilton Chania Old Town will immerse guests in the island’s heritage, from Venetian walls and Minoan ruins to Ottoman baths and its vibrant waterfront, while embodying the elegance of a cosmopolitan Greek getaway.
