While Makrinitsa in Pelion remains as enchanting as ever,...
While Makrinitsa in Pelion remains as enchanting as ever, it's crucial to highlight the aftermath of the 2023 flood, which has left the roads from Volos to the village in disrepair. Navigating these roads, particularly at night, can be perilous, warranting caution and attention from travelers, especially those with cars. Despite this challenge, Makrinitsa's beauty perseveres, offering a worthwhile destination for those willing to plan their journey with care.

Amazing place, Makrinitsa is the jewel in the Pelion...
Amazing place, Makrinitsa is the jewel in the Pelion mountain. It's only 12 or so kilometers from Volos and is easily accessible by car. However, keep in mind that the village is a strictly pedestrian area, so finding a parking spot in the parking at the village entrance could be a challenge. Get there early to beat the crowds and maybe you'll get lucky.
There are a number of very good traditional Greek tavernas that you absolutely need to visit, many souvenir shops you can spend a few euros at, and a wonderful cafe with the best portokalopita and karidopita you can find.
And last but certainly not least, Makrinitsa and the mountain Pelion offer many hiking treks you can follow.

Beautiful place but a bit "commercial"!
Beautiful place but a bit "commercial"! It depends on the style of holiday that you want to have. In case you want to have the trail in your holiday maybe you have to consider also visiting the other side of Pelion. Makrinitsa is close also to Volos in case you want to have a drink or taste local food. Overall a beautiful place to have a short trip!

Excellent views from almost every point in the village.
Excellent views from almost every point in the village. Tons of character, with the cobble paths and the traditional houses. Just a note, getting around the upper part of the village is a proper hike. Everything you need (restaurants, shops etc) are on the lower part though so no worries :)
The breakfasts were really lovely. A little different every day and there was always something freshly baked or prepared by our hostess, who was so friendly and full of answers to all of our questions. The inn was thoughtfully decorated and modernized without sacrificing the special quality of the Pelion region. We especially loved the night that we returned early and got to visit with all of the members of the family over tea and homemade snacks.
Hotel Petrino is located between two beautiful villages of mount Pelion. From our room we had amazing view of Makrinitsa, the most beautiful village of Pelion. Katerinana Cleanthes, the hosts were very helpful, very polite, very friendly and made you feel like home! The breakfast was excellent! The rooms were very well decorated and were very clean! I strongly recomend the hotel to travellers to Pelion!
Historical building, 80-100 years old, which consists of only 1 room, about 35 sq.m. with one double bed, one sofa and a bathroom. The host had made sure that the cleanliness was good and that we did not lack basic things. There is a wonderful view from the terrace. Peace and quiet most of the time. Beautiful nature around. The village of Makrinitsa is a historical landmark and interesting to explore.
An outstanding place to stay in an extraordinarily beautiful village. Makrinitsa is a lovely place to enjoy in its own right but also provides an excellent base to explore Pelion more broadly. We loved our stay at Archontiko Melanthi, breakfasts were great and another highlight was the friendly staff so capably lead by Kiki. Views from our room over the peninsula and Volos were spectacular.
Amazing hosts and value - felt like a second home in greece with a caring family. Sweet details throughout the rooms and property, really great place to stay in Makrinitsa for a solo traveller (or with more people). Note that you will have to leave your car/taxi at the car park about 200m away from the guest house. Location is perfect and I highly recommend for a relaxing mountain stay.
The location is fantastic in a corner of heaven. Located in center Makrinitsa, a mountain village overlooking Volos and the sea, the view is spectacular. Around there are trees as old as the world itself....
The hosts are amazing people, I loved the room and the breakfast is very good 😊. We were three people and a border collie and I will definitely come back again ❤️.
If you plan on staying in Makrinitsa you absolutely have to stay here. Even so, if you plan on staying in Pelion, you have to stay here. The hosts were lovely, Kiki helped us get around the region to make the most of our stay. The breakfast was a dream, so many choices and fresh ingredients everyday. And what to say about the view from the room…. It was like a dream.
Christina and her family were more than hospitable and friendly! Their welcome was very warm, facilities exceptional and an exquisite breakfast waiting for us each morning! We are happy to say we made some new friends and definitely coming back at our next stay in Pelion. Absolutely recommend for anyone who wants to feel like home away from home
We loved the location, the view of the city of Volos was very clear and the river below the hotel was the only sound we could here. It is such a serene place and the rest here feels like being in a dream. The breakfast was amazing! Homemade, fresh and so delicious! Everyone of the staff was very polite, attentive and helpful.
The way this family cares for this place is truly remarkable. It is exceptionally well maintained- an incredible feat for an old stone building in one of Greece's steepest villages. Everything about the structure and the grounds of this classic, traditional hotel is fresh and impeccable.
Very nice hotel. The room wasn't very spacious, but the view was amazing! Having breakfast - with a huge variety of local products! - on the balcony was a total bliss. Walking distance from the center; parking space available (that's definitely a plus in Makrinitsa on a Sunday).
The owner personally cooked breakfast for us... and another 15 people judging by the amount of food she put on our tables :) She gave us lots of interesting suggestions on what to visit in Pelion. The place is in an excellent location and it has an amazing view.
The Staff was amazing. Friendly and helpful. They make your amazing stay even better. The hotel itself is perfect. It maintains the feeling of old local houses while being equipped with the every technology needed to make your stay smooth and comfortable.
Beautiful terrace where you can enjoy very nice, homemade breakfast along with amazing view. Location is great, convenient parking in front of the hotel. Owners are very kind family. For sure I'll recommend!
