Guest House Lykourgos — Hotel in Municipality of Messini

We stayed here for two nights and enjoyed the spacious room with the large balcony overlooking Ancient Messini. When you come into town from the east, you will see a taverna and a couple of other buildings on your left, one of which that says "Guest House Lykourgos. This is where you pick up the key from the friendly hostess who will walk you up the hill to the actual guesthouse. You have to drive your car up a narrow, practically straight up drive to reach your parking space. Like I said, the room was large and basic with a bed, refrigerator, electric kettle, table, two chairs and two small nightstands. Outside was a large, shaded balcony with a stunning view and a table and two chairs. The bathroom is also large, which is nice, and the towels were large and fluffy. We ordered breakfast for 10 a.m. for the next two mornings, and promptly at 10 a.m., the hostess arrived with a basket of local products: fresh orange juice, olives, eggs, bread, jam, and fruit. We were very happy with our stay as we were here for the ancient site, which we thoroughly explored. One word of note: the name Mavrommati is disappearing from road signs. If you follow the signs to Ancient Messini you will find yourself in town.

The Lykourgos Guest House is a nice place to stay for visit Ancient Messini - The Archelogical Site - We spent there one night. |Consider that no breakfast is offered and that there are no coffee bars where you can have breakfast. The nearest one is at 2 km distance. We arrived late in the evening and we did not know this. In the room there is only a kettle with one cup ( and we were 2 ). We wanted to visit the ancient site in the morning and without eating something is not easy as it was very hot already at 9. Consider 2 hours for the visit. There is a nice taverna where you can eat a very nice dinner and a nice shop with local products. |The room is quite big and also the bathroom. |It is ok for 1 night...

Great place to stay in this wonderfully special place. The manager / landlady, Vika, is a hugely knowledgable archeologist herself, helpful and informative. We were cycling and sometimes, some places booked last minute can be a hassle when you’re tired. This was just so simple, friendly and easy; clean and comfortable with great views....
