    Very discrete hosts, but also quite helpful when in need. Was an impromptu booking due to a previous one at a different place gone wrong, but everything was ready by my arrival time. Super central location, and thanks to Sparta's straightforward...

Dear Friends, Have you ever contemplated popping over to Sparta to enjoy the marvels of our lands with all your senses? Quite a few of you have asked us whether this would be possible, and we started making plans for it. Out of these plans came "The Spartan Home" - Bed & Breakfast - self-catering holiday lodgings. Your Sparta lodgings measure 30 m2 and are in the city center. The single room flat is fully furnished and located right on the main road. It thus makes the ideal base for your foray into our mythical lands. Located in the heart of Sparta, is just 50 meters from the main square where there are cafes, bars, and restaurants. Note: "Castor" is the ideal place for those who are looking also nightlife and city experience. Due to its particular location - 50 meters from the central square - there will be noise which can last until the early morning hours during Wednesday (from May till September), Friday & Saturday nights or during festivals and special events. We recommend that you also have a kit with your earplugs.
About us: Native Spartans! We Love to learn and meet new people. Building "bridges" is what we are all about. With passion and love for our mythical land of Ancient Spartans, and nature. We are sharing moments in life with Family and Friends, cultivating Organic Olives and Extra Virgin Olive Oil in our family groves!
The apartment is located on one of the two central avenues of Sparta. Close to Central Square and only a few minutes’ walks to any point of interest (museums, restaurants, etc). For example, The Olive Oil Museum (unique in Greece) is 7' walk. The Archaeological Museum (it was the first Museum in Greece), is 3' walk. The Ancient Theater and Acropolis of Sparta is 12' walk. Everything important place which You 'll need to visit is very close. Castor is just 50 meters from the main square where there are cafes, bars, and restaurants. Note, however, that this means it is noisy on Wednesday, Friday & Saturday night or during festivals and special events. If you are sensitive to noise, we recommend that you also have a kit with your earplugs, or please consider before making a reservation. Our other apartments at the same building "Lycurgus" and "Alcman" are ideal for You, as they are located at the front side. Also, please check the option for "Helen" apartments to our other building and location.
