Very friendly staff. Good breakfast. Beautiful room with a view. Excellent location.
This small luxury hotel, built in 1850 as the center of society, stands proudly under the ragged shadow of Mount Taygetos.

We had a wonderful stay at Pyrgos of Mystra. We loved the atmosphere and furnishings in this beautiful old house. We were given a very generous breakfast in a lovely breakfast room. The manager was very helpful and friendly.

A cute hotel, nice staff and a good breakfast. There is a very nice restaurant next door. It is very close to Mystras archaeological site. The view of Sparta below was beautiful.

I could happily stay longer in the superb hotel, but mainly there is one sight to see in Mystras - the site of the old Byzantine city.
We spent longer there than anticipated; and if we had more time and energy we could have spent the entire day.
Drive to the top; see the citadel and the churches at the top. Drive to the bottom to see the rest of the site.
There is good information at the site, but prepare by reading up ahead and ideally have a good guidebook to make clear what to see at the site.

The Mystras Archeological Site is an extraordinary...
The Mystras Archeological Site is an extraordinary collection of Byzantine churches and ruins, built into and atop a steep mountain. Allow at least two hours and be prepared for lots of walking on slippery, uneven, steep surfaces. Worth it!
Tip: easy to park in Mystras main square, with multiple tavernas to choose from for lunch or dinner.

It's a small town or you can even call it a village.
It's a small town or you can even call it a village. Coffee drinks and food can be found in the center square of that village. Ideal location to visit the famous Castle city of Mystras and after that, regroup and continue your journey. If i may suggest, the route from there to Kalamata through Taygetos mountain (EO82) is amazing...

I am very sorry for the CONFUSION in my review particualrly of this place. UNFORTUNATELY we could only spend ONE night at this magical and extraordinary PYRGOS OF MYSTRA. It was one of the most memorable places I have stayed in. Our host MARIA excels in her efficiency and kindness. The whole place has an aura of serenity and peace. It is no doubt due to the staff but also the surroundings: a profusion of orange and lemon trees, paerfumed roses and a beautifully landscaped garden. The room is not only beautiful but extremely well equipped and it was the best shower during my trip to Greece! We really received the royal treatment and in the magnificent dining room we were served a most delicious breakfast. I was so very sorry to leave the place the next morning and I woud recommend, without any hesitation, this particular hotel and make sure that you can spend MORE than only one night there. Our fondest appreciation to Maria.

Lovely quaint village within walking distance of the ancient archaeological sites, which are stunning.
It’s all very hilly to take a taxi to the top gate of the site if you’re feeling lazy - then it’s just up to the castle and then it’s all downhill back through the site and down into town

An amazing ruined city - great for anyone interested in history. We started at the top, walking up to the fortress then down through the city . We did not move our car as some tourist books recommend. The restaurant is outside the site but tickets are valid all day so no problem returning to walk back up - recommend this as you see things from a different perspective going in the opposite direction. There are sufficient information boards. Be aware there is only one toilet on site. Good shoes are a must - these are ruins! Highly recommend.
The hotel is well situated in the centre of Mystras village and one kilometre from the entrance to the Byzantian castle ruins . The owner was helpful and showed us the room and parking , he also manages the restuarant with his wife and teenage children .Our room was behind the main building on the ground floor with a great view of the castle ,a balcony and parking outside . Shower worked well, and beds were comfortable . The owner offered us a lift up to the castle entrance and we walked down.
A lovely traditional house, high in the mountains, with beautiful hikes nearby. The real gems are the kind couple who run it, for whom I’d give 15/10. Impossible to do them justice in a few lines, but if you’ve been there, you know! Outstanding food, outstanding welcome, outstanding service, outstanding attention to detail, over and above anything a 5* hotel could ever offer because it comes from the heart. WHAT an experience! We miss them already …
This was my second stay at the Byzantion and I really like the place. The obvious reason for a stay is a visit to Mystras, this time with my wife. The hotel has an old world feel, appropriate to the location and the blessing of a lovely shady swimming pool in the back garden - perfect for cooling off after a hot day slogging up through the wonderful ruins.
They also do a great breakfast to set you up for the day.
Great location for visiting Mystras, offers fantastic views of Mystras castle in the hill and all over the wide valley up to Sparta. The accommodation is traditional but offers every convenience and is decorated to the highest standard and the owner is very friendly and hospitable.
The house was definitely one of the most authentic, and beautiful ones of our trip in Greece.
Good place to stay if you plan to visit archeological site of Mystras or if you only search for a nice and quiet village.
Rooms are really nice with stone walls and really comfortable. The restaurant food is really tasty and good, and service is rapid. People are really nice and helpful.
I Definitely recommend this hotel and restaurant.
Everything was perfect. A clean, new and well-equipped room with a private bathroom.
The owners are very welcoming and offer great help and advice. The location is also very suitable for whoever wants to visit the archeological site and is right next to the bus stop. So far this has been the best place I have stayed at in Greece.
The location is great with several restaurants nearby.
Big room, spacious and well clean. Bathroom good, spacious, shower good. Bed very comfortable.
Private parking.
Loved the host Helena, extremely sympathetic and pleasant.
Highly recommended. Ideal for visiting Mystras and Sparti.
The way the hotel was set out with the garden rooms off of a courtyard made it feel very private and relaxed.
Breakfast was excellent and there was so much choice. If you wanted anything else the hostess was very happy to help.
Beautiful place! Unique decor and style. Beautiful views! Wonderful staff, helpful, kind, warm. Very close to Mystras. Beautiful biking trails around. The only negative thing was that we stayed only one night...
Really nice stone villa, great and quite location, very close to Mystras archeological site and other villages with beautiful hiking trails around the mountains! Highly recommend it!
Everything!
