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.

Great location and room with balcony looking towards ruined site was excellent. Very clean with friendly staff and good breakfast and the pool was a real bonus.
This small luxury hotel, built in 1850 as the centre of society, stands proudly under the ragged shadow of Mount Taygetos.

Great location to visit sights in mystras and Sparta.
Great location to visit sights in mystras and Sparta. We only had two days but could have stayed longer - great walking and running trails. Lots of restaurants to choose from in mystras itself and very close by. Lots of very tasty Greek food and local house barrel wine. We would definitely go again on our way to the west and southern parts of the country which we didn’t have time to do this trip. We visited the castle and the monastery - great if your reasonably fit! We visited the archeological museum and all that there is relating to Leonidis. We drove through the mountains afterwards to Olympia which were both amazing - the drive and the place.

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 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
A lovely, spacious, top floor apartment with two patios with amazings views of the castle and monastery within minutes of walking distance to the pretty village centre.
Our lovely host Katharina was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed.
Great location to visit Mystras and Sparta.
Absolutely beautiful modern room, very kind and nice family restaurant in the same building, excellent food, very close to Mystras archeological site, good facilities, quiet and beautiful view. You can also buy their products like olive oil. Would definately recomend.
I liked its location close to the Mystras fort, and the lofty position of the property above Sparta. The reception lady was lovely and welcoming. It was great that we could have a snack and drink at the property in the evening. The breakfast was good.
