This hotel is the definition of the term boutique hotel. Although it is located 6km away from the castle of Monemvasia, you simply forget the possibility of staying anywhere else. Its tranquility, its scenery and of course its services make it one of the best Greek resorts

We stayed in Kinsterna for 4 nights at the start of October, having got the coach from Athens to Monemvasia. We chose the hotel partly because of its credentials with local and seasonal food. There was a veg patch all around the pool growing fruit and veg. It was a lovely break out of season so we almost had the... More

The Kinsterna deserves all the praise and distinctions it does receive these days. It is really a very special hotel, very romantic, very quiet, very beautiful : an atmospheric place to enjoy when travelling in eastern Laconia.Our room was beautifully designed and furnished, and we enjoyed it . A remark however : ours was a bit small. The restaurant of... More

This was our final destination in our trip to the Peloponnese and definitely the highlight. It is a very old mansion from the Byzantine times a few miles away from the citadel of Monemvasia. The hotel is located amongst two green hills (one of which has the hotel's private vineyards) and has tremendous view to the sea. We where picked... More

I really wanted to love this place, but it just didn't live up to its billing. They have the ingredients for a fabulous hotel - lovely building, great views, nice pool etc, but the ineffectual service blighted our stay.

We stayed at one of the suites with an amazing balcony overlooking the Rock and the pool. The welcoming bottle of a champagne at the room was a great touch and the amazing people that... More

We (M32, W26) stayed at the Kinsterna end of August / beginning of September for a week and we enjoyed it a lot. The property is an old Byzantine mansion that got beautifully and carefully renovated with a crazy love for the detail. The restaurant overlooking the cistern has excellent food (which is made mostly of vegetables grown on the... More

This is a beautiful old building that's been done up in a contemporary style, but sympathetically with the history of the place. The views from the main terrace and the pool area are stunning, the food is good, and the staff are really friendly and helpful. We were here for a wedding, and it looked amazing all lit up by...

We stayed only one night, but we're planning to come back next year. It's amazing: everything is so beautiful, the landscape, the rooms, the swimmingpool; when we booked the room it was asked us to choose the pillows, the bed was so confortable and we've had a real rest
