Great stay - family running the hotel was very friendly. Very convenient location with good restaurants within meters of the hotel + a short walk to the Monemvasia old town. Parking was across the street from hotel (easy + free parking).

Great view and very good location, simple room
The view from the hotel is awesome, and the location is perfect. Our room was large and had a balcony, but was quite simple. Perfectly fine for one night, especially at the price we paid.

This guesthouse is in terrible condition. It desperately needs some kind of renovation. Everything is tired from the walls, plumbing, doors and furniture. The air conditioning drains in the shower and seems disgusting! Nobody asked us about our stay and opinion.

This guesthouse is across the road from water, with a beautiful view of Monemvasia. The room was comfortable and very clean and within walking distance of everything. We enjoyed walking to the castle and exploring all the shops and also enjoyed Gefyra and all of the shops there, including the best bakery I've ever been to. We had to study our Greek phrase book so that we could tell them how amazing their spinach pies and breakfast items were. We shopped for fruits and vegetables for our driving trip and had good experiences with everyone we met. Petrino Guesthouse was a perfect place to stay for our explorations and we were sorry to not have been able to stay longer. In addition to a kind and attentive host, Petrino was comfortable, clean, quiet, convenient and air-conditioned, who could ask for more?

Property is rather dated but for price paid it was value for money. Lovely view from deck. Bathroom could have been cleaner. Looked like a build up of mould in corners. Shower had no rail so had to hold rose in one hand and wash one hsnded. Could feel bed springs.

Great hotel, Close to everything, Great price
Booked the night before looking for a good deal and found this little gem. We arrived a little later catching the bus from Sparta but the reception was cool about it. woke up each morning with a great view of Monemvasia and the sea. Close to all the little cafes and rentals. Super friendly staff made sure we were not without. Will definitely stay again!

Beautiful View!
We were a group of friends traveling and so we had three rooms. The staff were so friendly and not only gave us three great rooms, but also made sure we were all together. The hotel is very clean and there's a great view of Monemvasia! It is a fraction of the price of staying on the big rock and definitely worth it.

Nice Spot in a Walkable Town
We chose to stay off the island and opted for a better value. The town is very accessible and walkable so you can get around everywhere easily. We chose this hotel because the price was right and the building looked charming. It was near the ferry port so we could see all of the sailboats and access a lot of restaurants and shops. The island and little castle town is an easy walk from this hotel, which was great. The hotel manager met me at the door and was extremely friendly. Our room was clean and nice, but much like most of the places we choose, it's basic. The internet worked well and we had everything we needed. We enjoyed our stay and would choose it again.

Stunning Momenvasia
We especially appreciated the personal service. Our rental car from Athens broke down, and we needed to get the company to drive a replace to us 6 hours away. Our host Marcus helped us to deal with the language problem, and getting the appropriate service from the car company. He gave his time and made long distance calls to help us solve our problem.

The view is amazing, the A/C works well and the guesthouse is well situated (you can walk to many restaurants in 1-5 min and to the old town in 25-30 min). However, it is an old building and the rooms have not been taken care of for a while. We had smelly water coming out of the bathroom drain for our whole stay, so it was smelling bad in the room and the bathroom floor was covered in water (we had to walk on the wet floor to go to the bathroom).

Όμορφο και περιποιημένο ευρύχωρο δωμάτιο, καθαρό, κάπως μικρό το μπάνιο. Με θέα στη θάλασσα και μπαλκονάκι, σε καλή τοποθεσία πολύ κοντά και με θέα στο κάστρο της Μονεμβασιάς. Πολύ καλή σχέση ποιότητας τιμής.

Kleines Gästehaus im Hafen vor Monemvasia
Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen, das Zimmer war klein, aber mit allem, was man braucht. Ein Balkon in Richtung der Insel bietet einen herrlichen Blick. Wer gut zu Fuß ist, kann die Altstadt auf diesem Weg erreichen, es gibt aber auch einen Shuttlebus. Wir haben den Aufenthalt genossen, das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt.

buona posizione per Monemvasia
Petrino si trova sul mini lungomare di Gefyra. davanti la meravigliosa Monemvasia. struttura un po old style. camera pulita ma per tre non grandissima. tv vecchia e poco funzionante ma in fondo al turista non serve. senza troppe pretese ma buon rapporto qualità prezzo.
