The hotel

Two buildings, one courtyard

The hotel is made up of two buildings joined by an enclosed shared courtyard, with room types spread across both. Murals, tiled details and artworks accompany you through the lobby, courtyard and corridors. The wall of a Byzantine cistern found during construction has been preserved and is on display.

The main building has a lift, with step-free access to the rooms. At the entrance there is one step at the side door by reception; our team will help. There are accessibility arrangements at the entrance, in the lifts and in the breakfast area; the hotel has no rooms adapted for guests with disabilities. If you need step-free access, write to us in advance and we will suggest a suitable room.
