Pros:

Το πρωινό ήταν εξαιρετικό και ξεπέρασε τις προσδοκίες μας για το κατάλυμα. Υπήρχε μεγάλη ποικιλία και πολύ καλή ποιότητα σε όλες τις επιλογές που προσφέρονταν. Η τοποθεσία είναι ιδανική, καθώς βρίσκεται στον κεντρικό δρόμο και σε γλιτώνει από την ταλαιπωρία με σκαλιά ή δύσβατα μονοπάτια.

Το δωμάτιο, αν και μικρό γενικά, θεωρώ πως ήταν αρκετά καλό για την τιμή του. Διέθετε και ένα μικρό μπαλκονάκι, πολύ cozy για να πιεις τον καφέ σου με θέα. Επειδή το δωμάτιο έβλεπε στον πίσω κήπο, ο οποίος είναι κοντά στον χώρο του πρωινού, υπήρχε λίγη φασαρία τις πρωινές ώρες, χωρίς όμως να γίνεται απαραίτητα ενοχλητική. Το θετικό με αυτό, βέβαια, ήταν πως ήμασταν δίπλα στο πρωινό.

Η εξυπηρέτηση ήταν εξαιρετική από την πρώτη στιγμή. Η κυρία στη reception μας συνόδευσε μέχρι το δωμάτιο και μας πρότεινε δραστηριότητες και μέρη που θα μπορούσαμε να επισκεφτούμε. Γενικώς, θα έλεγα πως είναι μια πολύ καλή επιλογή, ειδικά αν το ζητούμενο είναι κάτι πρακτικό, με επαρκείς παροχές σε λογική τιμή

Beautiful place to stay, across several parts of Monemvasia. If you are looking for a place to relax and restore, I high
Pros:

The hotel is beautifully restored, with views out to the ocean and windows that let you wake to the sounds of the sea. We were in a spectacular room in the mansion. I found such a lovely space very hard to leave on the day of departure. Highly recommend, just beautiful.

Cons:

We were a group with one party in a separate building. That does mean the other side of the town, not next door! There are also about 50 steps down to the mansion with steps of varying heights. You have to climb these and then walk across town for breakfast. For the weak knee’d people who don’t do well before coffee and breakfast it is a daunting experience every morning!!

Our next visit to Monemvasia will include a stay here.
Pros:

The hotel is in Monemvasia, the oldest surviving fortress-town in Greece. The tourist industry has made a revival of the town possible, with houses being restored and (in some cases) converted into hotels. The town is a wonderful maze of small alleys and passageways, opening into beautiful views across the Laconian Gulf. The upper city is an impressive archeological site.

Cons:

I’m unfortunately taller than the population for which this town was built. 😁 I always had to watch and remember to duck.
