A journey to the most beautiful hotels in Greece

Greece's ancient art and culture are the cradle of Western civilization—many monuments and museums tell the country's rich history to this day. Greece is unique and thanks to its enchanting landscapes, the hospitality of its inhabitants and its wonderful hotels, make it the dream destination for many travelers. The fresh and healthy cuisine, the crystal clear sea and the enchanting sunsets make the trip to Greece a pure pleasure.

Angelika Taschen travels from the mountains of Macedonia in the north to the Peloponnese with her mythical places such as Corinth, Sparta and Olympia, and to the larger and smaller island complexes in the south. It opens its doors to some of the country's most stunning hotels, including Imaret in Kavala, located in a former Ottoman complex, Tainaron Blue Retreat in a secluded tower in Mani, and The Windmill, a renovated windmill on the island of Kimolos in the Cyclades.

It invites readers to discover legendary luxury hotels, such as the Eagles Palace in Halkidiki or the Poseidonion Grand Hotel in Spetses, and transports them to enchanting B&Bs such as Guesthouse Mazaraki in Mystras or Mèlisses in Andros, run by food blogger Allegra Pomilio.

Along the way, she visits hotels on well-known picturesque islands – such as Mystique in Santorini and Soho Roc House in Mykonos – but also accommodations in remote places such as Mediterraneo in Kastelorizo. In addition, it presents interesting architectural and design ideas, such as The Rou Estate Hotel, a historic, carefully renovated settlement in Corfu, the minimalist Olea All Suite Hotel in Zakynthos and Ammos in Crete, where no two pieces of furniture are alike and every year new eccentric pieces are added.
