A very nicely decorated and authentic hotel, settled in a central area in Makrinitsa. Our host, Katerina was very friendly. She suggested us the good places to see and eat. The rooms were large, clean and cozy.

What's the weather like for a summer wedding at this elevation?+

Makrinitsa's 370m elevation keeps temperatures 5-8 degrees Celsius cooler than seaside Pelion venues. Average July highs are 28°C rather than 35°C+ on the coast, reducing heat stress on guests in formal attire.

Hotel Petrino can host ceremonies and receptions for 20-150 guests, with flexible indoor and outdoor spaces depending on season and weather.

Do guests need to arrange separate accommodations?+

The hotel offers on-site rooms, allowing most guests to stay on property. This eliminates shuttle coordination and creates a contained celebration environment over multiple days.

What's included in the wedding package?+

Contact the hotel directly at http://petrino-pelion.gr/ for current package details, as options typically include ceremony space, reception facilities, catering, and bar service with variations by season.

Can we hold both ceremony and reception here?+
