Great location, great value!
Pros:

Location is perfect for visiting Mystras.
A bonus to have a pool on such a hot day in Sept! It’s the only place we have stayed on our Greek road tour that has a gluten free offering at breakfast, thank you!
Parking at the hotel is easy, plenty of space behind the property.

Goed, prima ligging en goed ontbijt
Pros:

De ligging was super, erg fijn dat er een lift aanwezig is. Het ontbijt was ook goed.

Cons:

De waterdruk in de douche was te laag en de temperatuur kon hierdoor niet goed worden ingesteld. Kortom: te koud.
Ook bij het ontbijt misten we nog meerdere mogelijkheden tot dranken.

Excelente alojamento numa vila lindíssima
Pros:

Excelente alojamento numa vila lindíssima :) Quarto super confortável, com vista para a zona montanhosa e para o sítio arqueológico. Pequeno-almoço muito simpático num pátio exterior, rodeado de natureza. Piscina ótima para refrescar nos dias de muito calor. Zona de estar muito cosy para quem gosta de estar a relaxar um bocadinho fora do quarto. Muito fácil de chegar, com estacionamento, localização super central, "em cima" do centro da pequena vila - restaurantes, mini-mercados, loja de recordações e produtos regionais, muuuuuitos gatos para dar miminhos! Apesar de termos ficado apenas uma noite, adorámos a nossa estadia aqui. Recomendamos!

Cons:

Nada a apontar

Für diesen Preis nicht zu empfehlen.
Pros:

Zum Teil modern ausgestattete Zimmer. Netter Pool, gute Möglichkeit auf dem Parkplatz des Hotels zu parken. Praktische Verknüpfung der Klimaanlage mit der Öffnung der Balkontür (wird diese geöffnet, hört die Anlage auf zu arbeiten, was der Umwelt zugute kommt).

Cons:

Wenig bis schlechte Englischkenntnisse beim Personal, so dass man die Anliegen nicht verständlich machen konnte (z.B. zweite Chip-Karte für die Familie für das Zimmer). Kein gutes Frühstück. Der Außenbereich des Frühstückzimmers ist nicht vollständig beschattet, was insbesondere im August extrem ungemütlich werden kann. Zudem können Menschen hier rauchen, was einfach unterirdisch schlecht ist.
Extrem überalterte Klimaanlage, die laut aber nicht effektiv war. Kissen hart, Matratze ungemütlich, Zimmer stickig, extrem laute Umgebung (liegt an einem sehr frequentierten Platz in Mystras und die Hunde der Stadt kläffen die ganze Nacht).
Absolut unterirdisches Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

Leuke locatie in een familiaal hotel.
Pros:

Ontbijt was goed met vers fruitsap, vers fruit en een mooi terras om buiten te ontbijten. De aanwezigheid van een zwembad was een pluspunt. De badkamer was klein maar erg netjes met elke dag verse handdoeken.

Cons:

De koffiemachine was heel elementair, met weinig keuze en mindere kwaliteit van de koffie. De parking was erg klein in verhouding met het aantal gasten. Er waren slechts enkele ligstoelen aan het zwembad, zodat je weinig zeker was om een plaatsje te hebben om van de zon en het zwembad te genieten.

Historic hotel with a great location and friendly staff, though there were some drawbacks
Pros:

The room was comfortable and had a nice balcony, and the staff were very friendly. Breakfast was included and was perfectly fine. The location was excellent, right on the main square of Mystras, making it very convenient for exploring the area

Cons:

The air conditioning unfortunately didn’t work during my stay, which was a significant drawback. The hotel is somewhat dated, although this also gives it a certain historic charm. The bathroom is in need of renovation. The parking area is also very small and can get quite crowded, making it difficult to manoeuvre, especially with several cars.
