"Great place with amazing views! Elena, the owner, was lovely but doesn't speak English. We managed with a few words each, a bit of sign language and a lot of Google translate. Rooms are perhaps unusual in decor but very comfortable and lots of choice for breakfast - particularly good omelette cooked freshly by Elena. Good tavernas within walking distance. Fabulous walking with the menalon trail. Very quiet and peaceful. And did I mention the views!"
"This is a beautiful property in a gorgeous setting. Hiking is available directly from the property. It is serene and relaxing. The staff was very responsive. The property is in the mountains, the air is crisp and smells like wonderful fir trees. "

Mainalon Resort
10/10 Excellent
"Excellent location in Tripoli, Staff and restaurant were superb. "
"We stayed here on our way from Athens to Olympia and really enjoyed our 1 night stay. The suite set-up was perfect for our family of 4 and the living room and common areas were spacious and comfortable. Be aware that there are many steps and stairs, so bringing up heavy suitcases can be tricky. The hosts were kind and accommodating."

"This quiet getaway was really a great location to get the feel of a countryside Greek town. Skies were beautiful at night with minimal light pollution. Staff and townsfolk were friendly and helpful if any needs were identified. Breakfast was HUGE, got to enjoy many delicious options and take away a few pastries for later in the day. Perfect getaway in the countryside."
