Castrum Traditional Sunset Suites

Great location, good amenities, and the view was stunning. The host was excellent as well.

For me not an issue, but some might have an issue with a climb (50+ steps). The host/staff helped with luggage. So again not an issue for us.

This place has a spectacular view and it is located in a converted 19th century castle that is charming and authentic. The feel is rustic with modern amenities and a very tasteful renovation.

There is nothing to dislike here. I would caution anyone who has difficulty climbing hills or stairs to look at the rooms carefully to make sure you will be comfortable getting up to the building and to your room in the building.

The view from the accommodation is one of a kind! As the accommodation is right on top of the highest point in Plaka, nothing else compares.

If I had to pick on something, it would be that the pillows were slightly flat.

We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights and it’s was by far the most pleasant experience in the island. The room was so clean and all appliances were new. Showers and beds were great ! The view and location are honestly the best together with the room. Will definitely be booking this room again in the future

The place is absolutely stunning, with sunsets “better than Santorini,” as one local told me, but all to yourselves. The setting is unreal. Fragkoulis, who runs the hotel, is incredibly helpful and assisted us with anything we needed. He has done a great job restoring the old house, with lots of traditional touches and keeping some of the original furniture, but also with great modern upgrades, like a beautiful bathroom and a nice kitchen.

Everything was great. Given the stunning view, it is a quick three-minute walk uphill from the main square of Plaka, so those who have trouble with mobility may want to stay somewhere flat, like Pollonia.

One word: view!!! Not just any accommodation but an experience. Very new, lovely renovated room in one of the oldest buildings on the island. Unbeatable sunsets in perfect tranquility and privacy. Little kitchen with some free water, bread and jam at arrival. Few minutes to town by foot. Don’t be suspicious about the few comments, it’s just brand-new.

Beware the door height if you’re tall (I‘m 188cm). Steep ladder from/to bed in our room can be challenging.
