Hotel Byzantion is located down the road to the Byzantine town of Mistras, a short drive from the Archaeological Site. It features rooms with spectacular views of ancient Mistras and Mount Taygetos.
This small luxury hotel, built in 1850 as the centre of society, stands proudly under the ragged shadow of Mount Taygetos.

Beautiful boutique hotel with a quiet walled patio. Good sized room. Near center of the village and several small restaurants. Great location for visiting Mani Peninsula and Monemvasia.

The hotel is well located, close to Sparti and the archaeological site of Mystras, easy to find with parking on site. Although it seems to be relatively new, the decoration is somewhat poor/all fashioned. We stayed for one night and might have been the only guests around. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. We were also offered an upgrade to a very well sized suite, which was much appreciated. There is also a very nice good sized pool, which unfortunately closes at 7pm.
Located in Mystras, Mystras Grand Palace Resort & Spa has free bikes and seasonal outdoor swimming pool. The 5-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with a private bathroom and free WiFi.

The grounds and overall look of the property beautiful but was let down by factors such as towels not replaced when taken - particularly when we were happy to reuse - no desk telephone number provided so always a long walk to resolve issues - overall pretty ordinary and not great value.
Located at the foot of Mount Taygetus and surrounded by its private forest, the 5-star Euphoria Retreat - A Holistic Wellbeing Destination Spa has a unique architectural design drawing inspiration...

Great location and service. Breakfast a little light.

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.

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.
This is a fabulous hotel in an excellent location. The staff were very attentive and all our needs were met. Our rooms were clean, spacious and very comfortable. The breakfast and dinner was exceptional. I used the spa for a facial and it was a great experience. The reception staff helped us plan our trip to see ancient Mystras. The swimming pools and gardens are very well maintained. This is our second visit to this hotel and we will definitely return again.
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 …
Our favorite hotel in Greece! From the moment we drove up we were treated like honored guests. The rooms and views were unbelievable and the breakfast was exceptional. A fabulous massage at the spa and an afternoon reservation on the clay tennis courts were just icing on the cake. Our young teen sons loved all the outdoor spaces. I enjoyed the view of the olive grove from my balcony and watching the sheep graze beneath the trees. Idyllic!
The hotel is beautifully situated right in the centre of Mystras. We first visited just after it opened several years ago and it was lovely this time to see how the trees and shrubs have grown up, making the hotel blend beautifully with the landscape. The bedrooms were very comfortable with great beds and a fabulous shower. The spa was very welcoming and the breakfast ample and tasty.
Absolutely everything. This was 5 star from every aspect. The layout of the hotel is gorgeous, very quiet and lovely. The pool area was expansive and very relaxing. Every staff member was friendly and willing to help. The breakfast was fantastic as well. I wish I could of stayed longer to have more time to relax.
The staff were amazing and the hospitality was excellent. The bungalows were renovated and very comfortable. The property is a five minute walk to the charming town of Mystras where there are many good restaurants. The pool area was very clean and well maintained and a nice break from the heat.
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.
spacious new, clean room.
gorgeous territory around.
very friendly, welcoming and helpful staff!
nothing to say, this was the best hotel in Greece, that we stayed!
also good location, easy to reach all Peloponnesus destinations from here!
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 at Pyrgos of Mystra was the best thing about the hotel. Friendly, kind and helpful! Thank you so much!! The hotel is lovely and the room was amazing. Views from windows are wonderful.
Breakfast is great! Home made with fresh local products.
