A Rich Historical Tapestry
Constructed in 1853 to house the family of Grigoris Paikos, a member of the renowned Filiki Eteria, the building is a testament to neoclassical architectural grandeur. Expertly renovated by the Polykretis family, the structure pays homage to its preserved identity as an architectural monument. It skillfully marries contemporary luxury with elements of the past, such as the majestic staircase made of wood and marble, antique fireplaces, and its intrinsic connection to the world of art.
Artistic Splendor
The magnificence and artistic allure of the hotel are highlighted by ceiling paintings and murals collaboratively crafted by artists active on the island during the 19th century, meticulously restored by Cleopatra Tsouraki. Renaissance elements, mythical creatures, and depictions of figures from the Greek Revolution enrich the ambiance, offering guests a unique lodging experience—a dialogue between the past and present.
