    Very good location close to both Portello and all the restaurants. The bed is comfortable and sleeps well. The bathroom is small but has everything you need. Even the shower head can be hung on a wall bracket, which is sturdy.

Host Information

9.4
Host review score
Traditionally built and furnished, Ritsos Guesthouse promises visitors simple but authentic holidays, while offering the option of an alternative budget stay in the Castle. The Ritsos Guesthouse was the first organized accommodation in the Castle of Monemvasia. Along with the Malvasia Hotel and the Stellaki Mansion, it belongs to the Malvasia Traditional Hotels group.
About a hundred meters from the Castle gate, just a few steps from the town’s main square, you will find the Ritsos Guesthouse. Its location is privileged, since it is just above the Portello, the eastern gate of the wall, which leads down to the sea and a wonderful swimming spot.
