The experience of staying within walls is something else. Monemvasia has managed to capture and maintain the feel of an ancient fortification while giving one the comforts of modern civilization (indoor plumbing!) The Likinia Hotel is well located, about a 5 minute walk away from the main street and sufficiently separated. At times you even have the feeling that you have the whole fortress to yourself. Since the family room was the last available option, we had an entire apartment with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms to ourselves. The rooms were very clean and spacious, especially for just two individuals. We recommend booking well in advance or checking with the hotel directly so that you can get an appropriately sized room and allow more people to experience the place :) The staff were kind and even helped with our bag up the final winding route to the room. The breakfast was a smaller spread but comprised of very high quality food in our opinion. The complimentary bottle of wine for the stay (a regional variety) was also a nice touch. The view from the room was also quite nice and we could look out onto the sea over the tops of other buildings. It was a really nice experience. We would recommend the hotel for it's location and will consider going back if we visit Monemvasia again.

Nice hotel with great service

This is a one of a kind stay! If you are visiting monemvasia, you should be sure to stay on the island inside the fortress. We loved our time here! Great hiking up to the church on top of the hill, beautiful views, such a unique little community. We loved our stay!

Was a lovely stay in a unique location. We were made to feel very welcome by the owners. Would highly recommend.

Very charming hotel!

Friendly staff

Very beautiful and interesting.

Fabulous service and delicious breakfasts, breathtaking view, unique experience, highly recommend

Super location on the island! The room was very nice and a bottle of wine was left for us. The host was fabulous. He went out of his way to help us with the wi-fi, directions, and other items. Definitely recommend this lodging.

Location, Location, Location! It is a step backwards in time, but with current day amenities. Breakfast was great, Staff was very nice and friendly and helpful. Views were incredible. Exploring the lower town maze was fun! Restaurants were plentiful. Biggest regret, we did mot plan enough time to explore the upper level of town. One of the highlights of our trip!

great place, so quite. awesome breakfast with some homemade dishes. simply outstanding.

Love the location and main bedroom. Breakfast was great. Staff was excellent. Due to the restrictions the government places on restoring ancient structures the bathroom was tiny, and you couldn’t stand to take a shower. Negative that isn’t their fault due to restoring restrictions. Other than that, very nice place to stay at.

Great hotel in a unique location

Amazing and comfortable.

Best hotel

It was lovely to be inside the old castle and enjoy the beautiful and charming atmosphere.

The property is in a good position. Excellent breakfast and friendly staff ready to assist you. The bathroom was very smal, but the overall room size is large and bed comfortable, cooling was also excellent. The ocean view is largely obstructed so we didn't consider it an ocean view and the bathroom we got is different to the one advertised with a glass panel. We didn't like the shower curtain resting against the toilet.

An amazing place to stay, nestled in the walled city of Monemvasia. A once in a lifetime experience.

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL views and very unique experience of a castle like hotel. Parking is difficult and the hotel is located inside the old castle town where you have to go past a rocky path. Dont bring your carriers it wont be happy but all in all definitely worth the experience.

It would be useful to know the difficulties of walking around particularly for those with mobility issues
