The location and views were wonderful. Lovely toiletries and new shower with great water pressure. The hosts were really friendly and the breakfast setup was very cute. Thankfully we eat all food as we had no choice in what was put on the table. We didn’t mind at all, just a note for someone who has any allergies or dislikes to make sure they ask first. We were given an upgrade too which was so kind of them, we were more than happy with the first room we saw, in fact it looked in slightly better condition than our upgrade!
Offering a terrace and quiet street view, Charis Guesthouse is set in Makrinítsa, 10 km from Panthessaliko Stadium and 70 metres from Museum of Folk Art and History of Pelion.

We've been in Archontiko Mansion Porteli for 6 days (2 families 4 adults and 7 children) and it has been lovely We enjoy every minute. the house is great, really beautiful located in ancient village - Makrinitza .
The host (Harris) was very kind and helpful.
The house has a big and beautiful balcony with breathtaking view and a hot tub.
The house is properly equipped with every thing you need and more .
The lovely village has some restaurants and it is closed to many tourism sites and located about 30 minutes drive from Volos - the big city in Pillion
. I truly recommend this site
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 location is excellent to spend a few days in Makrynitsa, one of the most beautiful villages in Pelion. The family that owns the place is amazing, very friendly and polite and will do everything to make sure you enjoy your time there. Wonderful breakfast with some different options everyday and you can expect everything to be fresh, not to mention a few very tasty homemade treats. Had a great time there and will look to visit again if and when we are given the chance.
The house is in the southern neighbourhood of Makrinitsa in Koukourava. The location was very beautiful at the edge of the village with very nice view. The house itself was spacious, in the ground floor the kitchen, bathroom, dining and a bedroom and on the upper floor two bedrooms and a wc. The kitchen very well equipped and with basic supplies (coffee, tea, sugar, salt, pepper, rusks, snacks etc). The host offered us a bottle of wine.
Amazing property with great hosts. The house was spot clean and over equipped. You do not need to bring anything extra with you. Great selection in food and coffee! All amenities was there (from fully equipped first aid kit to night lamp for the kids and from Netflix account to board games!) . Parking solution in front of the house that is vital for Makrinitsa. Excellent value for money and great view from the house.
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.
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.
Having breakfast on the terrace with a panoramic view on the sea and Volos. Personnel is very kind and helpful. The cleanliness of the apartment. The private parking on site (very important thing in Makrinitsa as accommodation on many places include carrying bags several hundred meters on steep terrain).
Many thanks to Kiki and her wonderful team! I had a great time at this lovely hotel and I highly recommend it. Makrinitsa Village is simply beautiful and Kiki will make sure you enjoy your stay by making you feel special and at home and also, by proposing you several itineraries that suit you.
Amazing place in amazing village. Romantic trip in the past, fantastic view, uniqie home-like atmosphere, with attention to every single detail. The breakfast was an uniqie experience - a cosy terrace and home-made food and personal attention to every guest by the hotel manager. Just amazing!
Kiki, the owner of the hotel is a charming woman and a great host. The hotel has a great view of volos bay and the breakfast is great.
The rooms are simple, pleasant and clean. The hotel is very close to the main square of the settlement with restaurants and souvenir shops.
We really enjoyed our stay in Charis Guesthouse and we would definitely stay there again! The room was very comfortable and clean, the breakfast was exceptional, while the people in the hotel were very friendly and ready to help us for any request we had.
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!
Excellent location! The place holds up nicely! Very friendly staff! Good parking spot! Perfect View! Nice breakfast ! Strategically placed between Portaria and Makrinitsa villages!
Great location, beautiful views, very nicely renovated old house turned into a hotel, decent breakfast. A little steep to drive but expected as it's a mountain village.
