Glorious Peleys Luxury Castle Hotel (Vizitsa, Greece)

About Glorious Peleys Luxury Castle Hotel

The 4-star Glorious Peleys Castle Hotel is an idyllic 18th Century chateau in Vizitsa, located on the best part of Pelion mountain. This very green area combines forested hills with sandy beaches and the blue sea only a 12 minute drive away. So you can ski in the winter at the nearby Ski Center (40 km), or spend the summer on the beaches just 10 km. away. This magnificent Castle-Hotel hidden from the outside world earned European Community's award for Architecture and is protected as a monument. The castle retains original features such as an escape exit, gates, and a turret. King Peleys (Achilles's father, the famous hero of Troy in Homer's “Iliad”) reigned over this imposing mountain. Moments filled with multi-colored plane leaves, strewn beside the stone spring, where the centaur Cheiron sings hymns to the Argonauts setting off for their expedition, while Zeus counts dolphins in the Pagasitic Gulf, seated on his throne on the snowy summit of Mount Pelion. The summer palace of the 12 gods. A succession of feelings in your soul through the area’s history and the care of the host to make your dream come true! The Castle and Glorious King Peleus will finally admit you to his presence to venues with ecumenical adornment. The heavy, velvet aqua colored curtains from Cairo, the woven nuptial adornments from the desert, the German sewing machine, the carved faces on the corbels, elements from Epirus, which through the joints of the stones, tie in with the Florentine paintings and artworks of the building. Qualitative contrasts envelop you. The moment you try to follow the steps of the Last Waltz on the keys of the black piano, through the gleaming red wine from fraoula grapes in the high stemmed glass, while laurel leaves crackle in the flames of the Hearth. Do not rest on these your laurels. Open the heavy wooden door and enter the painting of your dreams, under the climbing vine, amid the sunflowers.
