A wonderful hotel set in idyllic surroundings, encircled by forests giving awe-inspiring views across the mountains and valleys. This was the first time my wife and I travelled to the north of Greece and we are already planning a return trip, we loved it that much. We flew into Thessaloniki airport and drove the 2 and half hours drive to the hotel (it cost about €6 in tolls - very cheap). It's an easy drive with beautiful views mainly on a dual carriageway. You climb up a winding road to arrive at the hotel, greeted with mountain views and by a friendly team member, who welcomed us into the lobby. The aromas of a wood fire, large windows to absorb the views and a relaxed atmosphere, your shoulders immediately drop, knowing you have arrived in sanctuary. We spent three days pampering ourselves in the spa, eating great food in the restaurant and playing board games in the evening (Well UNO). I didn't want to leave! The rooms offered subtle opulence with even the little details taken care of. For a three-course meal, with a bottle of wine for 2 people, it was about €80, a very inexpensive price for the quality and service you receive. The Lamb was delicious. Spa treatments started from about €45 and went to about €130. My wife and I both had a couple of treatments during our stay and I am glad we did. It was food for the soul. We went during the off-season and it felt like we had the hotel to ourselves. The indoor pool was available from 6pm to all guests and you could book a slot in the day to enjoy it privately. Few things worth noting. It is more casual than you'd expect, so relax, enjoy the Greek hospitality and do not hesitate to wear your bathrobe around the hotel. Secondly, it's worth hiring a car to visit the local village and drive further afield, the roads are very easy and not particularly busy. Finally, we did the truffle hunting excursion. It was a wonderful day out walking with the ladies and their 3 dogs. They found so many truffles! The walk takes you through wonderful forests, down to the river bed and then is finished off by a beautiful meal back at their micro-farm. To finish this review, I would probably say it was the best hotel I've stayed at. I look forward to returning!
