- "Firstly, everything is extremely spacious with huge living rooms, bedrooms, multiple balconies, and ample parking space. Everything is very nicely designed and the staff (of which there are many) are notably pleasant and attentive. Dinner was delicious, breakfast had many options but was a bit poorer in quality than our other hotels. Only two drawbacks - the hotel is very close to Mystras and Sparta, but there is nothing in the immediate vicinity (which means it's very quiet) and secondly, the spa facilities are a bit disappointing. The pool is small, the hamam smelt a bit musty/ mouldy, and the changing room design is a little off."
