Where to stay in Portaria

The hotel is located just 5-10 minutes walk above the lovely village of Portaria. From most of the rooms you have a splendid view over the bay and city of Volos which can be accessed only by car in about 30 minutes along a windy but scenic road. The hotel is divided into several houses with no central hallway. Therefore you have to walk along the parking site in front of the hotel in order to access...

Very nice hotel with friendly and helpful staff and convenient rooms. Nice outdoor pool and space for kids to play. There is a balcony with a beautiful view in the dining hall, we enjoyed our breakfasts there. Located not far from the village center.

My partner and I stayed at this hotel in what appeared to the off season as it was very quiet. The hotel was clean and well maintained. Staff were kind and helpful durning all interactions. There was plenty of options at breakfast and service was great. The on site parking was a welcome change from other hotels in the area. Overall it was a great hotel and I would recommend staying there.

Great location, nice facilities, friendly staff

Absolutely wonderful experience! Property was gorgeous and clean. Had multiple options for breakfast. Had a beautiful dining area and an in-house bar. Air conditioner worked very well, and the rooms were quite spacious. Area was very nice as there was much to see and do within walking distance. Would recommend and go again!

Wonderful hotel in Beautiful and cozy Portaria. Nice space in the rooms very good breakfast. Nice and clean pool. Very polite and helpful staff. In The village portaria wich is a walk of 7 min a lots of restaurantas... Can really recommend. I stayed for 3 nights.

We have stayed there for 3 nights, the stuff were super nice and answered every request with a smile. The breakfast buffet was very good with many different options.

We spent 2 nights at the Pelion Resort and it was very good. The rooms are big, with a good bathroom and good bed. They have a very good pool (I enjoyed all day!) and their service is very friendly and kind. Everything we needed, they were ready to provide. Also very good breakfast. We would return for sure!

Very nice place with friendly stuff Clean room We have enjoyed staying there

Excellent. Great location, quite, in the woods, great view, very nice environment, spacious rooms, very clean. The pool is a great plus, you can swim during the day and you can enjoy cocktails and drinks by the pool at night. The breakfast has everything you need and is served until late. The hotel offers also a good variety of food all day long, which is also a great plus. There is also a jacuzzi...

Just a one-night stay, but I was impressed by the courtesy and welcoming of the staff. The room was very clean and the bathroom was spotless. The hotel is mostly made up of two-storey houses built on a hill overlooking the city of Volos with nice pathways and a swimming pool and bar in the middle. Although it was almost fully-booked, the peace and quiet was overwhelming at night. Short distance from...

Very nice hotel to stay on top of Portaria village. Spacious rooms and comfortable beds. Basic breakfast that could be richer for the level of the hotel. The last 300m to access the road is narrow.I give 4 stars because the room aircondition was not operating so well.

Best place to stay in portaria!!The service is so professional,the rooms are out o this world and the breakfast is with local traditional products.Very clean rooms,beautiful view,We got upgraded to a better room so kind from this gem hotel.Keep guys the good work!!!A magical place to stay for your vacation!!!!

The hotel is good and our stay was pleasant. For the price of it though, I would definitely expect a better breakfast. The road to get to the hotel is a tiny/tight street with big stones that is unsafe. We parked the car and didn't want to move it again because it was scary. They really need to put a traffic light or offer help from the hotel.

19/06-22/06 Very cosy hotel very polite people very convenient spot in the town of Myconos!Great breakfast very quiet!!The staff was very professional and friendly!Always at our disposal!Thank you all!See you soon!I have already made recommendations to my friends

The location was great. The staff were exceptional. Friendly and eager to help out with anything. Very easy going atmosphere.

Nice spot with a lovely breakfast, parking is for the brave or someone from Greece :)

Very friendly and helpful staff.

It was very nice. They had plenty of parking. Room service was quick. Breakfast was pretty good.

Nice view, good breakfast, ,lovely hotel

The hotel was ok although the bathroom in our room is in need of serious renovation. In our room there was no kettle and cups like the room next door. When we asked about it they said its because the other room was at a different category! The pool should have been heated due to low temperatures. The breakfast was good.

Excellent service from the staff, wonderful views of the mountains and town below, great morning breakfast. The only thing that lowered the rating was the beds were extremely hard and the air conditioner didn’t keep the rooms cool. Although, these are common findings in Greece. Would stay there again.

Nestled in the breathtaking embrace of Pilio mountain, Xenia Hotel redefines the meaning of a luxurious getaway. From the moment you arrive, it’s clear that every detail has been thoughtfully curated to create an unforgettable experience.

We in December as a couple really enjoyed the area, view and hotel. I knew it was an older built hotel but therefore knew it would have more spacious rooms and higher ceilings and parking. It was better than we expected with helpful staff.Breakfast and restaurant ver good nearby with good vibe and food. Can walk to village center also. As there is lots of traffic in the mountains at this time its good...

Very nice place, unique atmosphere, picturesque view, polite and helpful staff, tasty breakfast. Would definitely recommend.

Bed was pretty hard and barking dogs all night but the town and premises were very nice.

We LOVED this area. My husband voted our stay here his very favorite place we went in the three weeks that we spent traveling around Greece and the islands!

The breakfast is very good. The hotel is maintained on the high level. The staff are extremely nice. We stayed in the suites (2 families) and had no hot water in the shower at any time of the day. Other than that all was good

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our accommodations were a separate beautiful cottage on the property with two floors and balcony. Parking was behind a gate, but you had to exit your car to enter the code to open the gate.

Excellent room with a fireplace, central heating and all amenities (including wood for the fire) included. Very pleasant staff and great breakfast. Parking included and very nice central location.

Great hotel wonderful food and staff. Portraits and adjacent square are awesome.

A wonderful place in the center of Portaria. The hotel restaurant is outstanding. The food is delicious and made from local ingredients.Cozy atmosphere, great location and excellent hospitality.

The hotel and restaurant are among the best places you can visit! Dont miss this spot and make sure to try the food. The hotel is beautifully designed with a cozy and friendly atmosphere both inside and in the restaurant. The food is absolutely phenomenal!

We stayed at Kritsa Hotel for 3 days and we are super satisfied! The hotel is so beautiful, they kept the pure traditional architecture and design which we loved! The rooms very clean and with all the necessary amenities available. Also, the location is absolutely fantastic in the central square of the village. Eating bfast under the trees every morning was so amazing! Food very good! Last, the personnel...

Fantastic stay. Our room was comfortable and quiet but no lift. The restaurant served delicious meals for both dinner and breakfast. The area is quaint and full of character.

Do yourself a favour and stay here. Is one of those places that you will think about years to come and will make you want to book another trip to Greece just to comeback to this place. Special hotel with one of the best breakfast of my life in an amazing setting. Also you need to have dinner there. Best meal in Greece.

This hotel is discreetly located in a very secluded alley in the town center, with a small parking lot at the entrance. You just need to boldly drive in from the alley entrance. The hotel rooms are spacious and clean, and the rooms on the back of the second floor have large balconies where you can enjoy the sunrise in the morning, gaze at the church bell tower on the opposite hillside, or watch the...

Beline hotel is one of the best of its peers. Very comfortable room and mattresses with a nice view and reasonably size bathroom. Nice, fresh selection at breakfast. Plenty of parking and excellent location. Clean, well maintained facility with a friendly team.

Beline hotel is one of the best of it’s peers. Very comfortable room and mattresses. Nice, fresh selection at breakfast. Clean, well maintained with a friendly team.

We loved our stay in Belina hotel in December. The room was very clean, cozy and warm with a fireplace! The bed was very comfortable. Excellent service, the owners are very kind and accommodating ensuring that we have everything we need. Big advantage the parking in the heart of Portaria! I fully recommend it!

After spending 5 nights in Thessaloniki and 4 around Bulgaria, it was with great joy that we arrived here. If we had know just how wonderful it was, we would have stayed longer. Not only was the village absolutely charming, but the hotel was just what you would imagine for a beautiful family-run inn in the mountains of Greece. Elias was a fantastic host and he gave us the best tips. The room was comfortable...

everything was great. when you enter to hotel you will be having warm welcoming of mr Ilias. you sent me something good on change I don't know, but this would can find whatever you need in the room. the size of the room is good and the temperature of the room is also good. you feel like you are at home. the only bad thing is there is a smell when you enter to hotel. thank you for everything

Despite the friendly service we have received from the reception team, we were disapointed from the room. The plaster on some of the walls was peeling. The space between the bed & the wall on one side was very small and the curtain reached to the floor, so it was very difficult to pass through, especially at night if you need to go to the bathroom. The breakfast met our expectations & the hotel did...

The service is very good, the breakfast is good, we didn't get to check the spa, the internet on the 2nd floor is very weak.

I cannot say enough good about the staff. We had planned on staying 2 nights but a massive rainstorm flooded the area and we could not get leave the hotel. The staff made sure we got feed and kept us informed about the situation with the rain even though they were not taking care of their homes that were being damaged by the storm. Amazing staff that cares about guests and ensures their comfort...

Very friendly staff, very clean facilities and a generous, tasty breakfast! The surroundings are great!

Beautiful, atmospheric and clean hotel in a central but quiet location with a great view. The services are good and the staff is friendly. Very good breakfast. We haven't got the chance to experience the spa yet. Would definitely recommend it for a stay in Pelion.

Beautiful hotel in a beautiful location. We had the so called “honeymoon suite”, a spacious room with a large terrace and also a jacuzzi, and, following the Covid rules, we had the opportunity to enjoy the hotel spa just for ourselves. Breakfast is available until 11 a.m., and you can have it in a patio outside, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. The staff was very kind and professional...

I fall in love with the view from the very first sight. One of the best locations in the area, equally close to both Portaria and Makrinitsa villages. Tasty breakfast with the variety of choices. Convenient parking. Cozy rooms. In-house playing room with billiards, table tennis, mini football, and playground for kids. But the most important - super hospitable people here, the owner and the ladies....

Amazing staff and great atmosphere. Beautiful place with the most breathtaking view. The woman at the reception will do above and beyond to make you happy and comfortable. She’s an angel and we’ll be grateful for her help and kindness forever 🤍🇬🇷

A great hotel with an outstanding location between Portagia and Makrinitsa. We were impressed by the warm family and their team. The hotel is recommended for families, as there is a very large and cozy lobby, as well as a great "playroom". So you can also relax there without always having to be in your room or on the move.

The staff was very welcoming and nice. Everyone was sweet and kind. I went there on a school trip and we had so much fun! The rooms were beautiful,spacious and the beds were extremely comfortable,the water was super clean and the balconies were nice with great view. The food was delicious and everything was clean and tidy! 10/10 would recommend !!!

Nice view, great breakfast, excellent staff, especially Stergia!

Excellent hotel, both in room quality, staff hospitality and a very nice breakfast buffet! We stayed for two days and can definitely commend the relaxing beds, really clean rooms and wonderful location in addition to the staff being super polite and helpful! Definitely recommended to visit and enjoy a great time!

Just amazing 👏 hotel is excellent and staff very friendly, food is excellent !!! See you again thanks for great holidays!!!

Beautiful view, satisfying breakfast, very polite people, 5 minutes walk to the center of the village. There are some things in the room that need restoration.

Breath taking view, very good hospitality traditional breakfast (everything handmade), privacy from the balcony and only 3 minutes walking from the central square. Recommended for all weather vacations! Already in my favourite destinations! See you soon 😘

We stayed in this wonderful hotel for 6 days, we were very pleased and had a great rest but we mostly enjoyed, every single moment, of the amazingly beautiful view from our room's balcony. Our room was perfect, very clean, comfortable with a biggg bed (we were very much impressed by the sewn embroidery of the hotel's logo on the sheets and towels, very chic and regal) and extremely quiet. In the...

An excellent hotel, and a credit to Yiannis and his family who run it. We can't wait to visit again.

Extremely welcoming staff! A very nice room! The „everything is homemade-“ breakfast is delicious. I love this hotel and I will come back, next time for longer. .. a great restaurant next door! Όλα πολύ καλά!

Best location in the city! Amazing location fully of flowers. Hydrangeas are impressive. Very nice and clean rooms! The host is very kind and ready to help with everything possible. Efhristo poli🙏❤️ from the romanian family who were with the Greek man. 🥰

Perfect place! Probably the best place we've been in Greece. 100 hundred years hotel that seems like new. Managed by amazing family, very kind and helpful.Very Clean rooms and amazing handmade breakfast!

Very good in all respects. Clean and cozy rooms in the central plaza of portaria. Reasonably priced too. Don't miss the breakfast. Almost everything is either locally produced or made by the landlady. My favourites are the apple pie and pasta flora. Some rooms have a fireplace. Excellent for relaxation and extra warmth. Nonetheless the hotel is equipped with central heating. Off season, during the...

Hotel Filoxenia is a small hotel hidden in between some others in Portaria. The owners take pride in their quiet and welcoming establishment and provide you everything you need. The location is wonderful, and sitting in between the large trees on a sunny day makes you realize that you might have stumbled upon one of the most beautiful places in all of Greece.

Hospitable environment anf staff, very cosy atmosphere and excellent in terms of cleaning! Had a great time and everyone was kind and helpful.

Valeni Hotel is a perfect choice for every possible season. Our experience during July was amazing. Rooms, view, breakfast, facilities and staff are all super professional, kind and always at your disposal. We also hosted our wedding at the amazing balcony of the hotel, facing Volos city and Makrinitsa village as well. Everything was on time, well organised, and most importantly, punctually executed...

A Truly Exceptional Stay – Highly Recommended! We had the most wonderful experience staying at this hotel as a family of five (with kids aged 16, 14, and 9). From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with genuine warmth and care. The hotel itself is stunning, elegant yet comfortable, with thoughtful design details that truly elevate the atmosphere. Every space feels intentional and beautifully...

Unique design, full of beautiful pieces of art, situated in a quiet and serene atmosphere! Staff is amazing! Friendly and effective! Breakfast was excellent!! I honestly cannot say enough!!

We had the absolute pleasure of staying at Valeni Boutique Hotel in Volos, and I can confidently say it was one of the most exceptional hospitality experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded expectations. The breakfast buffet each morning was a true delight — fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. It set the tone for each day with the perfect blend of local flavor...

Beautiful hotel with extremely helpful staff, the room was nice with a private balcony and big shower. The pool and pool bar were wonderful with amazing views of Volos harbor and sunsets. Breakfast buffet was probably the best I remember from any hotel I've been to- they make all of the pastries, cakes, and local specialty items in house- the honey balls and custard cakes were delicious

Valeni is a beautiful gem of a hotel in Greece! The most comfortable beds and pillows, the warm welcoming atmosphere, the views, the crackling fire with the twinkling lights looking over the view of Volos - all unbeatable! But the best of all are the staff led by their amazing manager Angeliki.You can tell everyone enjoys their job and this is a rare find not just in Greece but anywhere these days...

Not well maintained quality construction and poor breakfast for EUR 500 over the weekend. We booked for the first weekend of the new year in 2026, right after celebrating NYE in Athens. Called in advance to verify that we were going (farmers motorway blockades were making the trip questionable) and to verify check in time. It was neither explained on the website/ booking site, nor during our phone...

Value for money hotel . The stuff was very polite and helpful . Breakfast was nice and simple with good quality products . Strongly recommended.

Amazing views, wonderful breakfast with eggs made to order (in addition to coffee options in the room). Highly recommend!

The Erofili hotel provided us an exceptional hospitality as well as a super handmade breakfast, same is located in the center of Portaria village with all the hotspots in walking distance. The receptionists are very friendly and helpful. The room is comfortable enough and cozy.

The professional and diligent staff took great care of us when Storm Daniel hit the Pilio area recently, making sure we had food and shelter amid a police curfew and power cuts. A great example of Greek hospitality, even during trying and difficult times.

Everything about this hotel was excellent ! Staff were friendly and welcoming , rooms were perfect and breakfast was a rich buffet with a selection of fresh food to suit all tastes! 10/10 for everything
