Apartments in Sparta

This was the most beautiful resort my wife and I have had the pleasure of enjoying. The spa itself is breathtaking, with various treatments available and an amazing indoor/outdoor pool. If you want to relax, this is the place for you. Super romantic, clean, spacious, state of the art, staff was very friendly and informative. Our room included breakfast which was a la carte. Our server was amazing, remembering how we liked our coffee to suggestions on traditional Greek menu options. We enjoyed talking walks in the woods, the California hot tub under the starts was breathtaking, their spa, sauna, cold plunge area was the perfect place to unwind after a long day of sight seeing. We went to Sparta for the Spartan Trifecta World Competition, after the days of racing, being able to enjoy the spa was the perfect end to the day. Room was clean, spacious and state of the art. Beautiful views, ultra quiet, staff cleaned our rooms twice a day. We will defiantly be back.

i have never written a single review. but i had to write this one. this hotel caters to conventions and one night visits. of which we were one. already our expectations were quite low. rambling, tired property with DARK rooms making us forget we were in sunny Greece. our daughter got food poisoning from a pork entee (eaten only by her) our one night there--we were fine. she spent the entire evening in the bathroom from midnight on vomiting hourly. we were forced to cancel our trip to Olympia and return to athens as she was barely able to keep water down. i went to the front desk to register our experience and our situation. the food and beverage director was summoned and i told him of our experience and asked to be credited for our stay. this is would be a common request in luxury hotels in the US certainly (which mystras purports to be) and credit would be given immediately in most circumstances. BUT the director gave me a lengthy mansplaining of how severely he was regulated by the EU, the compliance forced upon his kitchen for cleanliness and the frequent inspections and how it would be practically an act of god for there to be someone who got sick from the food as a result. he mansplained further that other than my daughter no one of the very few guests at dinner that evening got sick. so surely it was a malady she brought to the hotel. it most certainly was not. seeing that there was no graciousness to be expected from him, I asked for a credit for our food and received EUR 18.60 for the entree. As it happened we went next to a real five star resort on the adriatic south of Athens who had a Dr. on staff and immediately gave an anti-nausea injection. he told us that if she did not improve we would need to go to the hospital for intravenous rehydration! i then subsequently told our private tour provider of this incident and asked him to use his best efforts to secure a refund for the stay. he was told the same thing we were. EU regulations, inspections etc.

Our family traveled to Vamvakou to visit our yia yia's home village. It was an emotional experience for us, and the hospitality at the Ruga guest house was exceptional. Angeliki and Takis helped us with our arrival instructions and bags. Nota, made a wonderful breakfast, and helped us with any questions we had about the village. If she did not know the answer, she called someone and fount it for us. The rooms were immaculate. We stayed in Marigo, which has a wonderful balcony, where we could gaze out on the village and listen to the birds sing. Tsevoula was a cave-like room, which was a really special place to sleep. Both rooms had a wet bar, with reasonable prices. There were no problems with the rooms. Thank you everyone for making our stay special! Donna Sheedy and family
