Hotel Avragonio Traditional Apartments (Megalo Papigo, Greece)

About Avragonio Traditional Apartments

Only a small part of the beauty that emanates from the guesthouse Avragonio in Megalo Papigo can be captured in photographs. Truly, impressive as is the view of the mountain Astraka towering over it, so also is its first-rate atmosphere, signifying that behind the scenes are people with a sincere respect for tradition, connoisseurs of their materials and their space, with exceptional good taste and a flair for hospitality. The Avragonio has been noted by a symposium of French architects as one of the top three mountain accommodations in all of Europe. Passing through the gate that leads to the magnificent garden inside, it is as though you are entering the magical quarter of the village. The manicured flora seem to know how to stand to attention, each playing its part in the exquisite composition; the decor seems to have sprung up out of the mountain landscape, and the dog Nanook completes this welcoming tableau. Whichever of the bungalows you should choose, it is most likely that you will depart with new ideas about how to decorate your own house. The breakfast room will give you a basic introduction to the regional cuisine. The wood fire gently smouldering in the stove, you find yourself immersed in the pages of your book. As you recline in comfort on the sofa, suddenly you see where your next conference must take place: in the Avragonio’s purposefully-designed conference space, which no doubt will inspire you and catch you up in the life-giving energy of the mountain.
