Truth be told, it was the one place I was least excited to be going to and the place I loved the most. The property is sitting in the middle of a lush mature olive grove with a magnificent view. The gardens are pristine and the love and attention put into this property is astounding. The cherry on the top is the play ground for the lovely birds. To see and hear these birds frolicking and chirping is like music to the ears. They dive into the aged old olive trees and make it their homes within all the holes and crevices. Staff was thoughtful and kind and food wonderful. This place is worth the drive to see it. If you want peace and quiet and beauty with an amazing mountain view......BOOK! I was in love with this place.

After a hot and sweaty day exploring Mystras, this is a great place to come to, up the hill from the archaeological site.
Welcoming hosts. Wine bar and snacks available as room service. Amazing view over the Vale of Sparta. Ate an excellent breakfast on our terrace.
Tiny village offers choice of several restaurants to walk to.
Wish we had stayed longer. (Wish we could be there now!)
Set amidst greenery, Christina Guest House is located in Mystras, just 30 metres from the central square. It offers air-conditioned accommodation, some with mountain views from their balcony.

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 very well located near Mystras and is attractively designed with a lovely pool area, impressive landscaping and an amazing breakfast buffet with lots of regional, as well as North American, choices. The staff were friendly and helpful, the service was great, the rooms and the beds were comfortable and the weather was ideal. The tennis courts looked excellent as well. They arranged bike for us to use while we were there, and we enjoyed cycling to the nearby towns. Lovely relaxing hotel. Really a wonderful place to stay.
The location high above the plain provides stunning views of Sparta and Ancient Mystras Castle. Mystras village and the original Byzantine town are easily reached. The owner has designed individual apartments with unique decor. Some tavernas are within walking distance and the Mazaraki garden overlooking the plain below is a perfect place to relax anytime. Staff provided us with outstanding friendly service, thank you to Demetria, Natassa, Maria and Anna for making us feel so welcome. We would love to return!!
The warm hosts, the complimentary homemade breakfast bar, and delicious dinner. The live music after dinner. The opportunities to chat and connect with fellow travelers. The great advice for local hikes in the mountain. The close location to Mystras and Mount Taygetos. The beautiful rooms and cozy dining room. This guesthouse offers such an authentic and unique experience, I feel very fortunate to have found it, and I will be back.
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.
It was an amazing stay. The landlord was very nice and gracefool. He even brought as fresh pastry in the morning. The villa is amazing, with great views and huge rooms. Each room was air-conditioned, kitchen was fully stocked and terrace had great views over Mystras village and archeological site. Three large bathrooms were a great bonus. We loved everything!
Great and rejuvenating weekend at what we believe is the best SPA-Hotel in Greece.
Great location, just below a forest, good view, quiet, easy to reach from Athens, very professional and friendly staff. Great SPA facilities, professional treatments, comfortable rooms, very good beds, very good breakfast.
Very good idea to have mobile-free areas.
Sirene small hotel in a fascinating building. Unbelievably thoughtful supervisor accommodated a preference for a gluten-free breakfast by finding a fresh bread loaf at a local bakery. Well-designed room and furnishings. Beautifully painted carved wooden ceilings throughout. The breakfast room has artistic painting and lighting.
Fabulous hotel in rural location. Beautiful grounds and facilities. Rooms are lodges built in traditional style. Everything is very tastefully done. Excellent breakfast. Helpful staff. There’s a spa but we did not use it. Pool and surrounds are fabulous. Views of mountains and castle from the property are amazing.
We had a large room in a traditional building very close to the surprisingly lively centre of Mystras. The room had everything we needed, there was off road parking. The hostess was very friendly and the room was a bargain at the price we paid.
Staff are excellent and very helpful. Great restaurant recommendation! Lots of choice at breakfast and very tasty. Rooms are very spacious with very good air conditioning. Hotel grounds are beautiful too. Awesome base to explore Mystras.
The hotel is located in the centre of a small town named Mystras, which is at the foot of the mountain where a Byzantine ruined city locates. The hotel is clean. The breakfast offered by the restaurant of the Mystras Inn is good.
Mystras Inn was fabulous. Even though the town (and the castle!) make you feel like you're going back in time, the rooms were super comfortable and clean. The breakfast was also absolutely delicious! Highly recommend!
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.
Very cozy and comfortable room with all you need during stay. We had the best sleep here during our trip through Greece. The owners are very friendly, gave us some tips about surrounding areas.
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!
