Megim Hotel, Palaiochóra Overview
Megim Hotel is a 2-star hotel in Palaiochóra, Greece. Rated 8.3 out of 10 based on 50 guest reviews.

The property’s check-in runs from 02:00 PM to 09:00 PM, and the hotel keeps things practical with non-smoking rooms, air conditioning, and a terrace for downtime between outings. You’ll also find a free beach shuttle, which helps when you’d rather spend energy on the sand than on logistics.

Best for budget-minded couples, families, and pet owners who want a quiet, functional stay with straightforward access to Palaiochóra’s coastline and the wider sights of Chania’s southwest coast.
