Likinia Hotel in Monemvasia 230 70, open June–October.
Likinia Hotel occupies a restored 19th-century mansion within the medieval fortress town of Monemvasia, perched on a dramatic rocky peninsula jutting into the Aegean Sea.
The building has been carefully preserved and modernized to maintain its Venetian-era architecture while offering contemporary hospitality.
This clifftop location provides an authentic backdrop for ceremonies steeped in centuries of Greek history.
Amazing location in an ancient castle town. The rooms are cozy with unique ocean and castle views, but no hot pot or way to make coffee in room, wifi can be intermittent, more off than on. Front desk seems clueless on maintaining an Internet connection. The grounds are all stone, with maze like paths with many steps and narrow passages. Exciting and imagination provoking of medieval times
