Accommodation
Named after the hill in the village.
This two roomed suit “borrowed” its name from nearby Troulos (Dome) Hill. And, indeed, the name suits it, as nature has found a place in this room ... as part of the decor. Three ancient tree trunks adorn the ceiling above the bed.
Next to the bed, in front of the imposing stone fireplace, is a cosy corner with a sofa. Stone and wood are the dominant features throughout, both for the walls and for the furniture. There is a fully equipped kitchen in the other room. The Troulos Suit also has an interior balcony, or “pounti” as it used to be called, which is covered by mechanically operated retractable awnings.
The source of luxury
Pigi (source) was the richest village in Mesta. And its namesake apartment is also rich and luxurious but in a tasteful and unassuming way. It is an independent 50 sq.m furnished apartment which has been fully renovated in a way which conserves its traditional character thanks to the stone arches and recesses) in the walls. The accommodation consists of a bedroom, kitchen, bathroom with antique bathtub and WC. There is a stone fireplace beside the bed, something which adds an extra touch of romance. This room has an interior balcony, or “pounti” as it used to be called, which is covered by mechanically retractable awnings.
A living part of Mesta’s history, from 1412 to the present day.
This is a recently renovated room which takes its name from the surrounding area. The monks’ cells of the Palio Monastiri tou Taxiarchi (the Old Monastery of the Archangel) were built here.

So, anyone staying in this room, with its history dating back to the Middle Ages, is bound to enjoy its historical atmosphere, countryside air and rustic furnishings. Stone dominates the décor, with arches and stone recesses in the walls which add the glamour of a bygone era, while the earthy tones, luxurious fabrics on the furniture and the Italian flooring give the room a more modern atmosphere. The room has a double bed and three-seater traditional sofa.
