Superb

A wonderful place with a magnificent view of the mountains, the sea and Volos. The hotel is located in the highest part of Makrinitsa. Right in front of it begins the eco-path from which you can go down to the center of the village, but in places it is quite steep and returning on foot would be it was quite difficult. So definitely the only way to get around is by car. But otherwise the hotel is very charming with a nice atmosphere of the bygone era. Our double room was comfortable and very clean. We had a lovely little balcony with a view of the whole gulf of Volos. The owner Akis is very kind and responsive. Great place.

Good

Great spot with an outstanding view of the village as well as of the city of Volos and of the gulf in front of it. Very cozy place, giving every feeling a traditional village should give. Very quiet and the guys in the reception always polite and helpful.

The room was a bit small but most probably it was what it could be, given that the Archontiko was an old traditional house in the first place. The road from the village to the rooms was not the best there is but, after your first try, you will get used to it and it gets better.

Amazing view, good value for money but difficult to reach, and management not present

View was great, room was comfortable, internet/wifi was good, place was quiet, and value was good for one night.

A few things I personally didn’t like. Manager was not there, so I checked in on my own, and he wasn’t there during check out either, and the person he appointed didn’t even now how to charge my card. Even though breakfast was included, owner did not make it too clear that menu was in the room, so I could select the breakfast and send him via text my order late at night for the morning. Bathroom was very small and very outdated - the vent was pretty dirty, and always on whenever you turned the light on. No actual parking - you need to park a few meters up hill, next to a burned down car. Finally, to get to the hotel is very complicated. The road is very narrow and you gotta prey no one comes the other way. Also, if Google Maps tells to go via the north route, don’t take it - the road converts into a tiny pedestrian path where not even two people can fit.

Unique location, welcoming hosts, breathtaking views!

incredible views! peaceful location. Our hosts were very welcoming and accommodating. We didn’t have a car during our stay and Agis was very kind to drop us/pick us up from the village for a couple of days as we were travelling with two small children. As other reviews have stated, the road is very steep up to the guesthouse, not too much of an issue for adults who are used to walking, but harder if you have small kids. The guesthouse was very clean and lots of thought has gone into the decoration. The communal area where you could make tea/coffee was great, and an added bonus for us we had it to ourselves during our stay. We were very happy to here for a few nights in a family room.

Breakfast wasn’t provided, this could be clearer in the info on booking.com. We didn’t realise until late in the day as we just assumed. The local bakery however delivers daily freshly baked pies for a cost - lovely, but carb heavy, and a little tricky when you have small kids to feed first thing depending on what time he arrives. What would’ve made our stay a little easier with small kids would be having just a bit of choice available at the guesthouse first thing - fruit, yoghurt. (Ideally included within the cost of the accommodation). You can of course buy supplies in the village although choices are limited, and we didn’t have a car, so that made things a bit harder for us. Not a big issue and not one to put you off booking, but just make sure you are organised if travelling with small children!

impressive traditional guesthouse on the mountain top with lovely clean room and best view

The rooms and facilities are impressive, comfortable, clean well-maintained the hospitality of the managers are unbeatable

the road up to the hotel is steep and curvy, have to go slowly when you drive

Disappointing

There was no WiFi in the room, the hot water in the shower was sufficient hardly to 1 person. Breakfast is not availabe but all first reviews are speaking on the delicious breakfast (so we expecting...). The owner was not available to solve those issues. The mattress( in room 3) was very hard and uncomfortable The location is in the upper edge of the villige, and not close to the villige center hence, you have to take the car and hope to find a parking in the village.

Worth the effort to get there!

The view was amazing! This was a great stop on our trip. The village is beautiful and it's fun to be so high above Volos.

The road to get there was a challenge. Going to dinner down in the village required quite a walk because we were not interested in driving that road in the dark!

Excellent hosts! The view from the hotel is awesome, the hotel feels more like a guest house than a hotel and we had a fabulous breakfast. Too bad we were in a hurry and couldn't enjoy it.

The road there... Well, don't trust Google Maps or Waze, they will take you on a road that's poorly maintained and very narrow and steep. Take the road that is a bit longer, through Portaria.

Astonishing view, tranquility and comfort with an adrenaline rush to get there :)

Fabulos views, rooms clean and tidy with comfortable beds. Wonderful to sit on the terrace and enjoy a glass of wine, enjoying the silence and the views. Hosts were super nice and helpful. You also have the option to order in from a couple of restaurants from Makrinitsa. The breakfast was super nice, too bad we were in a hurry to catch a ferry so we could not enjoy it at it's true value.

The location is fabulous, being the house on the highest point of Makrinitsa, with breathtaking view. The road that leads to the house from Makrinitsa center is very difficult though to climb with a standard car (narrow, unpaved and steep road with tight curves). Nevertheless, it is worth it, even if you climb the road by foot 👣 for about 15-20 min :)

An incredible experience.

It was really a very nice experience. The upward road to reach the house is little inconvenient but totally worth it for the experience you will get. Amazing combination of sea and mountain view from the highest point of Makrinitsa. The homemade breakfast is delicious. Rooms are clean and cozy. Lastly but the most important the hosts, Triantafillos and Kelly, are very nice and very helpful in everything you may need especially if you are going first time in the region like me.

Feels like home! VERY VERY CLEAN and very friendly staff?

The most clean room and hotel in general i have had in a long time! The man in charge was very friendly, we felt like if we were at home! Perfect and healthy breakfast woth fresh handmade pies and bread! Perfect view!

A little far from Makrinitsa's centre and a very bad road until you arrive to the hotel. Not a reason to miss this hotel, but it's better to arrive there during the daylight.
