Pyrgos Mystras: A guesthouse-jewel in the shadow of Taygetos

Atmospheric accommodation with the renowned Byzantine castle town as a backdrop.

The luxurious guesthouse Pyrgos of Mystras is set in a magnificent location, in the shadow of imposing Mount Taygetos and at the foot of the famed Byzantine castle town of Mystras. This beautiful 1850 mansion, standing proudly in the heart of the village of Mystras, was once the center of modern Mystras society, hosting important personalities such as the great statesman Eleftherios Venizelos and the distinguished iconographer and man of letters Fotis Kontoglou.

Today, Pyrgos of Mystras welcomes travelers into a unique environment of luxury, comfort and high aesthetics. Its current owners, Haris Chomenidis and Maria Veneti, transformed the mansion into an aristocratic guesthouse with absolute respect for the nature and history of the place.
