Only stayed for 1 night but the room was lovely and we made use of the pool! A large breakfast selection was offered and room service dishes were great. Staff were very friendly and helped us move our bags to and from our car.

A very special place to stay. If you are walking the E4 Peloponnese Way, staying at Archontiko is one of the highlights of the whole journey. It's made memorable by its kind and friendly hosts, Maria and Yiorgos. The lovingly restored house is full of character, quiet and comfortable. It's a marvelous place to relax. The food served is excellent, and many thanks to Stephanie for her kindness in making the meal possible. Archontiko is the hub for walking in the Taygetos mountains, and you will not find anyone more knowledgeable about walking in the area than Yiorgos, who oversees the E4 in the Peloponnese. I was reluctant to leave, and I would love to go back to it one day.
On average, 3-star hotels in Mystras cost £64 per night, and 4-star hotels in Mystras are £87 per night. If you're looking for something really special, a 5-star hotel in Mystras can on average be found for £220 per night (based on Booking.com prices).

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.
Very very charming hotel in the hills which attracts a nice crowd (particularly those interested in hiking and bijing). It belongs to a wine bar which is a big plus, especially with the view from the terrace. The beds were good as well as are the huge array of breakfast choices.
Try the restaurant on top of the mountain! Really great, but go there by foot (extremely steep drive)
The staff and management were very polite, friendly and professional.
Our room, facilities and the premises were clean and tidy.
The location of the hotel is wonderful and near the castle of Mystras.
This is a delightful hotel with a very comfortable bed. WE checked out early so Maria gave us an early breakfast. The location was great very handy to the town square.
Luxury hotel with space and in a lovely calm environment. A great place to spend time after visiting Mystras ancient site. Enjoyed having the two pools.
