Byzantino Boutique Hotel

Súper happies to be back again, after 6 years, and to find the lovely Anna with all the other staff (Constantina, Theodoraki, Irakli...) and enjoy the rooms, suites and the stunning views and stay in our forever beloved Monemvasia. We'll be back soon!!!

Beautiful rooms in an absolutely stunning location. Staff were incredibly helpful and rooms were nice and clean :)

We had a fantastic three days! Communication was clear and helpful from start to finish, and the restaurant recommendations were absolutely spot on. Staying in the old town was a real treat, full of charm and character. It was low tourist season making the city easy to navigate. Highly recommended!

Unique location with very friendly staff. Bathroom is basic but clean.

We loved this beautiful hotel. We specifically requested a room with few stairs and a sea view, and we were given exactly that—an antique-filled Ottoman style room (A1) with a balcony overlooking the main square and the sea—perfect for us. We had been worried about having to park outside the town gate and drag our luggage through town, but the reception area is only a few meters inside the gate, and the hotel supplied an amazing porter to carry the baggage to our room. We especially appreciated the comfortable bed with good reading lights, and the drying rack on the balcony. Despite its central location, the room was surprisingly quiet at night, and we could not believe the zillions of stars above. The folks in reception were very helpful and gave us an excellent map and great advice. Breakfast was in a separate building and there was a huge variety of delicious items. Most of the town’s restaurants are only a few steps away from the rooms. We particularly liked Matoula for its great service and beautiful sea view and ate there several times. Galera Gelato was another favorite for their irresistible ice cream. The town is very small and walkable but is not easy for anyone with mobility challenges; the cobblestones and stairs require extra caution. It’s definitely worth a hike up the cliff to see the Upper Town, and outside the east wall to visit the lighthouse. This beautifully preserved town is absolutely magical, and the Byzantino Hotel is the perfect place to stay to soak up its historical atmosphere.

Set in a magnificent and very scenic setting, the hotel has various rooms overlooking the small town of Monemvasia. We had a beautiful room overlooking the town with a balcony, excellent WiFi, good beds and a nice bathroom. Communications before our arrival were excellent and the costs were very reasonable. The staff were very professional and helpful and the room itself very clean and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed finding our way around this beautiful town. You do have to be mindful that it is cobbled streets throughout and steep climbs to some of the rooms in the hotel and around the town. The only slight downside was that we thought the breakfast was limited with too many sweet choices so not really to our taste. Would definitely recommend a stay here if you visit Monamvasia and would also book again if we return. Thank you for a very welcoming stay 😊

It was a lovely stay at Byzantino Hotel. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and Iraklis carried everything for us and was also very kind. The breakfast was really tasty and fresh, the rooms clean and right in the center of the village. Our room was small so I would recommend a bigger one but it was perfect for one night. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Different locations of the rooms, great rooms and breakfast was good. They will also recommend some restaurants and places to visit.
The only point of improvement is parking spaces. There are a lot of tourists, which means that if you arrive past 3pm, you'll have difficulties parking in the near of the castle. You have to walk up to the hotel's reception in the castle, and they will bring your luggage to your room.

A little magical gem that you dont realize is occurring until you take the time to spend a few days here (stay 3 nights!). Explore little narrow stone alleyways walking on marble stones/ Have your leisurely meals on the restaurants’ rooftops to take in the expansive seaview. Watch the feral cats/ walk to Mateos on the aminland and he’ll show you the fresh-caught fish he will grill for you….It’s all a world-apart that you’ll only know by crossing into the tunnel.
