Kymata

Impressive views of Mount Olympus can be obtained from this 45-room property nestling in the green hills just beneath Platamonas Castle in Northern Greece. Although it lies in a secluded spot, the 45-room hotel is a mere 2 km from the town centre and a 20-minute drive from Litochoro. The friendly English- and German-speaking staff at the reception desk will be only too pleased to help with car or bicycle rental. Guest will enjoy the sun terrace or a walk in the gardens before entering the à la carte restaurant, which specialises in Greek cuisine, including many fish dishes, as well as many vegetarian and diet options. The classically styled rooms all have private furnished balconies with beautiful views of the crystal waters of the Aegean Sea, plus en-suite bathrooms. Ski storage facilities are available in season, and canoeing and snorkelling are popular local activities.
