Guest Reviews

• Jaroslaw (10/5): - Brilliant House and owners. We felt there like a part of family . really recommended !!!
• Terry (10/5): - Host was very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was excellent.
• Christopher (10/5): - Thank you for a lovely stay!
• Avraham (10/5): - Very charming building, very clean, and very nice owners.
• Angelo (10/5): Bella esperienza - Bella esperienza gestori simpatici e cordiali
• Jean-Philippe (10/5): Une parenthèse magique - Hôtel tenu par Elias et Nano, un adorable couple et ses trois filles ! Ils vous font sentir comme à la maison, le charme grec et la piscine en plus ;-) La meilleure adresse de la région sans hésiter !!!
• Sophia S (10/5): - Get out of touristy Greece and experience an authentic Greek lifestyle in Xirokambi. Taleton is nestled on some great property before the town square, with warm and welcoming staff, unique rooms, a private garden and pool this isn’t just a stay at a hotel, Taleton is an experience!!
• Philippe (10/5): Tout est parfait - Un endroit parfait pour loger dans le secteur de Sparte-Mystras. Le studio dans une ancienne manufacture d’huile d’olive est très confortable agréable et propre. L’hôtesse est aux petits soins et le déjeuner bon copieux et composé de spécialités locales.
• Ann (10/5): Wonderful, wonderful! - The little guest house is very well kept. And Nano is a wonderful hostess, who makes certain that you feel at home. Nano’s breakfast is wonderful, with specially created entrées. The location is in a small town, so it is far away from the noise of Sparta. But is it is only a block away from the town square, so there is easy access to very nice restaurants and a little grocery store. Some of our best Greek food was enjoyed in this little town. The whole experience of Nano’s guest house is the best that we’ve had in our first two weeks traveling in Greece.
• ILDAR (10/5): Excellent to play near Sparta - Excellent spacious rooms, very hospitable hostess, adviced of good cafes in town. Great place to stay near Sparta.
• Esperanza (10/5): - El desayuno es estupendo y la dueña es amable y muy atenta . El patio donde se desayuna es precioso.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Our stay was just perfect! The accomodation is beautiful, there’s a big terrace and a pool with sunbeds. The room was very nice because it has two floors and the bed is upstairs. For breakfast they had plenty of things, mostly local food. Everything was very clean and the hosts were absolutely friendly and courteous. They welcomed us with a super cool vibe and it felt a little like home to us.
• CHRISTOS (10/5): Τέλειο - Καταπληκτικό μέρος υπέροχα δωμάτια με καταπληκτική εσωτερική αυλή. Φοβερή φιλοξενία από τον Ηλία με υπέροχο πρωινό. Όλα αυτά σε ένα χωριό που αν δεν πας να τα δεις από κοντά .όπως και τις ομορφιές του Ξηροκάμπι δεν μπορείς να καταλάβεις. Ότι καλύτερο για ξεκούραση και ηρεμία Μπράβο στα παιδιά για την προσπάθεια τούς
• Delphine (10/5): Beau, bon et bio ! - Après une route bordée d'Oliviers, nous avons découvert cet ilot paradisiaque : chambre spacieuse, bien décorée, avec une mezzanine. Le propriétaire, très serviable, nous a même proposé d'appeler pour nous la Police locale pour nous informer de la situation des incendies pour reprendre la route le lendemain. Piscine appréciable !
• Isabelle (10/5): Excellent guest house - Très bon séjour et très bon accueil dans une belle guest house a 15 mn en voiture de Sparte Des hôtes très accueillants Très bon petit déjeuner
• Jean (10/5): Lovely hotel!!!! - A beautiful hotel not far from Sparta, with all of the best amenities. Delicious breakfast, Lobby bar, pool, spacious rooms and friendly owners and staff. We were so pleased with the accommodations. We will go back!
• Issam (10/5): Fantastic guy - Thank you Elias for the great welcoming and hospitality. Very beautiful place
• Catherine (10/5): - Amazing hosts, super friendly, cozy. You feel at home !
• mark (10/5): ood - Excellent, good service and good food
• Beth (10/5): Perfect Peloponnese Retreat - I was there when the coronavirus caused cancellations of my next itinerary. They took such good care of me and helped in so many ways. Even made me dinner with their family. A wonderful experience, helped me enjoy the beautiful area and relax.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Everything was excellent!!! staff , room, design, breakfast... Great experience!!!
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The best breakfast and most beautiful country house! The suggestions of where to eat and what to see in Sparta were spot on perfect! We loved the bed, the mineral water, and especially the breads and sweet jams/spreads in the morning. So yummy. Very easy driving to Sparta to see Leonidas and Mystras.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful decor, charming ambiance, friendly and helpful host, nice breakfast, our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Absolutely lovely warm service and friendly people - place was very very clean and cosy. Lovely breakfast. A very nice stop on our road trip .
• Ammu07 (10/5): - A bit away from the city lights, this hotel is located in a village about 25 km from Sparta. Very quiet and peaceful. The rooms were double floored and spacious. The staff were friendly. There village had a few good restaurants. It was a nice quiet walk around the country. Breakfast was good with fresh orange juice, and the regular stuff. Parking is right in front of the hotel. Overall a good experience. Will recommend.
• ivan (10/5): Fantastic place - Amazing people, rooms well above average . Food delicious, service excellent
• Verified traveler (10/5): - This is a darling small property close to the center of Xirokambi. Comfortable common areas, both inside and in the center courtyard that is surrounded by the rooms and buffet area. The pool area is nice & relaxed. The rooms feel as if you are in a home. The service is perfect. Loved this property.
• Maria (10/5): Excellent - Excellent service fantastic accommodation
• Verified traveler (10/5): A Lovely comfortable and welcoming stay - As we were touring around the region Taleton was the ideal location. It’s close (within 2 hr drive) to many top tourist destinations. Very helpful staff (particularly Maria who was always very bright cheerful and spoke very good English). Accommodation was excellent, and the air on was welcome. Easy to walk into town for evening meals as well.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The room was actually more an apartment on two levels. So, plenty of space. The bed was upstairs, while the bathroom downstairs, which I would call a downside ;-). All spotless clean and new. Lovely ambience of the room and of the whole hotel, with a nice patio with fountain and a swimming pool in another patio. TV only local terrestrial channels. Wi-Fi that day was switching to another operator, so I cannot judge. At that moment connection in the room was not memorable, but surely it was a momentary problem and now long solved, which was clearly explained by the staff. Breakfast was buffet, mixed greek and continental/US style. No warm milk available, but this is common in many places. Though, I would have appreciated more if it was available. All in all, a nice stay. No place is perfect.
• B (10/5): - Nice hotel but a bit unusual in that the bedroom is in a loft but the bathroom is downstairs. Not a good choice if you have mobility issues.
• Elias (10/5): Teletón Sparti Country House - The Tradition Sparti Country house is located in Xirokampi, about 10 Miles from Sparti. Xirokampi is a nice Village at the base of the mountains and a starting point for some good hiking trails.
• Μαρινα (10/5): - Perfect little gem. This hotel is cozy, clean, and the staff is wonderful. The breakfast is great (especially the homemade orange jam). Taleton is located in a convenient location—close to Sparta and an easy drive to the beach town Gythio as well as many other neighboring villages.
• Bernadette (8/5): - As I had booked a classic double room, I expected a kitchenette, but only a small bar fridge available. I was not aware that TV only had Greek programs. One bedside lamp and another light not working and shower needed better cleaning. The fountain in the pleasant courtyard still broken since August 17, but the local village and the 1000 year old olive tree made the poor aspects bearable. Local bus service not available Sunday and only a few buses to Sparti on Saturday.
• Tammy (10/5): Beautiful boutique hotel, authentic Greek town - Lovely hotel, ~15 minutes from Sparta. Well worth the drive, especially recommend the drive through the beautiful olive groves - google maps helped!! Small town Greece at it 's best. Several great family-run restaurants within walking distance. Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. Very nice breakfast. The town square is full of locals enjoying the evening.
• Kira (8/5): Nice Hotel in a peaceful town - Our stay at the hotel was pleasant, staff is very nice and helpful, it is located in a small peaceful town, 20 mins bus to Sparta city centre. The only thing I got a bit confused was, the hotel offers great breakfast, but for the tea,they choose to offer 8 different types of team which does not include the most commonly demanded ones - English breakfast tea and the green tea. Other than that we absolutely enjoyes our stay.
• Amanda (10/5): Quaint and lovely. - It was lovely area. Very quaint. Staff friendly. Ample free Street parking. Nice breakfast. This hotel is in Xirokampi approx 15 mins from Sparta central.
• Kathryn (10/5): What an absolute gem. - This boutique hotel is a credit to the owners. It is meticulously maintained, with very thoughtful touches. The lovely village of Xirokambi was within close proximity to local attractions and a good base to explore the surrounding countryside.
• Maria Jesse (10/5): Fantastic Hotel!!! - Amazing hotel in the village. I was surprised to find out this village had a hotel-but they do, and it is exceptional. Beautiful grounds, AMAZING cottages. Very quiet and peaceful. We visited in late November, and despite a rainy weekend, it was amazingly cozy. Staff was fantastic, as well. We will definetly be returning. Thanks so much.
• Samara (8/5): If you have to go to Sparti, stay here - Breakfast was great!
• lynda (10/5): great place to rest, visits sights at leisure - Enjoyed gourmet breakfast, quiet and inobtrusive attention of the staff. The village is central to many places of interest..monasteries, museums in Sparti, the Byzantine city of Mystra, and only 45 minutes from the sea. Have done it all including hiking the mountains. Great food at the Dionesis. Just around the corner. The square with its Plane trees is not to be missed. Busy much of the day, it comes alive with village life around 9 pm.
• lynda (10/5): Understated Elegance - Lovely first rate hotel in the middle of the Pelopenese. Ouiet, elegant with traditional architecture. In the middle of a traditional village. Small shops invite a visit. The traditional foods of the area are healthy and delicious. Produce, wines, and meats are local. The best cuisine found at the Dioneses taverna. Visit nearby monasteries and hike the magnificent Tayigatos mountains. Stop in the village square under the shade of its Plane Trees for a coffee or frappe. Visit museums in nearby Sparti. A short ride to the ruins on Mistra, the ancient Byzemtine Capitol.
• Sophia (10/5): great hotel with amazing staff! - Wonderful place to stay! The staff is beyond friendly and accommodating! Our room was clean, they had a lovely breakfast and the hotel is in a great location close to both the mountains and the beach. We will definitely be staying there again!
• Verified traveler (6/5): Something missing - From the photographs we were expecting a more luxurious stay and although the public rooms and garden were fine our room was a bit of a let down. The conversion of the old mill into a hotel although sympathetic failed to impress. The room was 'split level with bed and bathroom on the ground floor and kitchen sitting room on the upper floor with quit steep stairs linking the two. Bathroom was big, bed was comfy and sheets were clean however some of the flooring was less than spotless and the sitting room looked a bit worse for ware. Room was a bit dark and it was hot despite the air conditioning which was noisy. We stayed in some lovely Greek hotels/pensions in similar price ranges over a three week period but found the Taleton to be the least impressive. It needs to be smartened up. Breakfast was good and the two members of staff were very impressive.
• Wilkinsons (10/5): Boutique hotel in village location. - Two night break at this lovely country hotel as part of a 2-week holiday, well located to explore the spectacular mountain region in this part of The Peloponnese.
• Verified traveler (8/5): RECOMMENDED - The Taleton is located in the center of a village south of Sparta. It is a great location for exploring the peninsula. Each room is actually a small apartment facing a lovely courtyard. There is a kitchenette (without and dishes or cooking equipment), table and chairs and a sitting area downstairs. The bedroom and bathroom are up a twisted staircase that may be difficult to maneuver with a large suitcase. The bed was comfortable and the the hotel was very quiet. There are tavernas and cafes a 5 minute walk away on the main square. The management was very helpful and the breakfast very satisfying. I expect this is a busy hotel in the summer (We were there in November) as the area looks good for hiking. The only drawback was the church right across the street. Bell ring from early morning to late evening.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great local food - Beautiful location. The food in the restaurant was local and very good.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - We liked a hotel. The onlly thing I would suggest is to have relly fresh bred from local cousine for the breakfest and not just toast. And maybe give a sign of the hotel on the road. It is not so easy to find them.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The staff were such lovely and kind people, and the Inn/Country House was so pleasant and beautiful. Breakfast was out of this world!
• Easter hol trip (10/5): What an amazing hotel. - Wonderful warm & friendly staff, We had a beautiful room with an upstairs yoga/ relaxation space. Bed v comfortable and although there was snow on the mtn outside we were cosy & warm. The best thing about our experience was the breakfasts. Incredible range of tasty treats. Cereals, local greek yoghurt, breads, biscuits, home made jams & spreads. Also hot eggs, cheese pies & treats. The olives are local & simply the best. We bought some from the hotel, as they were quite extraordinary kalamata olives. This sets you up for all the fabulous walks which are on your doorstop. Check the oldest bridge in Europe & 1,000 yr old olive tree just up the road! Xirocambi is quite difficult to find as the sign is written in only Greek from the A road & there is no sign for the hotel. WE asked a friendly local at the Pharmacie.
