Hotel Kritsa and the gastronomy restaurant are a fantastic experience. First of all you have the lovely and wonderful staff. They are so friendly!
They bring your suitcases to your room and they give you all the necessary information about Portaria, the shops … and everything you ask them. They are very helpful!
The outside area of the hotel is like the garden of Eden with an 800 year old tree at the center and a well next to the tree . You don’t need to buy a bottle of water. They fill a carafe with fresh spring water. Lovely! Water can taste very good.
The rooms are comfortable. Old style Pelion. I had a room with a balcony over looking the square with the old tree. Very recommendable!
And then last but not least you have the breakfast. Only for the breakfast you stay in Kritsa. It’s of an unbelievable good quality with very good quality local products and products from their own farm.
The restaurant is also a very good experience. Lovely food and a very good wine selection. The service is professional and very relaxed and friendly.
I come back.

I liked:
I liked:
The traditional house architecture that has been somehow preserved and gives a unique character to the entire village.
The streams and creeks inside and around the village.
The main square with the beautiful large platanus-sycamore trees.
The views of the Pagasitikos bay from the village.
The view of the thickly wooded forests of chestnuts and walnuts.
Portaria and Makrynitsa and Pelion in general are close to what my idea of paradise is!

It is a very small village on the top of a mountain near Volos.Ok, the view is very nice especially during night, but You need to climb the mounting by car and you need 30-40 minutes for 9 km.When you arrive there, you will find many hotels, 8-10 restaurants, 3-4 souvenir shop, one petrol station, one pharmacy and nothing else.

Portaria is a really nice place that combines traditional restaurants with friendly people and a breath taking scenery in the mountains with a panoramic view of Volos. The trail of Centaurs is a must,as well as tasting the traditional sweets of the women's co-op.

All villages from Pelion are extremely interesting and with a local air. The view is just unbelievable. A great rustic experience which a real urban, busy traveler must have. The food, the nature, the panorama, every and each place are just mind blowing. Pelion is not the tourist oriented place, but this makes it even more desirable. So, if you choose Greece and you might need some peace of soul, this is the place.

We stayed at gastronomy hotel Kritsa in front of a 1000 years old Plane tree. The hotel shares a big yard together with 2-3 other small hotels covered by huge Plane trees. It's a magnificent place .
very nice breakfast buffet - good local quality food, nicely presented . Breakfast starts 8.15 which is quite late if you are up for hiking in the Pilion ...
Very friendly and helpful staff
The hotel has an excellent Restaurant with a very nice wine list . Food is well prepared preserving its natural character and taste . wonderful salads and a super nice place below a 800 year old platana tree .
The hotel was situated above the restaurant, which by itself is a hot destination in the culinary scene of Portaria (or even Pelion). The rooms were cosy, not large, but ample and warm, giving a pleasant sleep experience. The breakfast, being an extension of the restaurant, was superb and with many options, changed every day. Additionally, having the restaurant at our feet, was an added bonus!
The location is very good, very close to the central square of Portaria (by foot). Also, very close to the bus stop, if you are coming to Portaria by bus. There is also parking space if you come by car.
The breakfast was great, it is not a buffet, but you are served with many options.
The view from the where the breakfast is served is very nice.
New hotel, located at the heart of the village yet quiet and laid back environment. From the garden to the room everything was clean and tidy. Room was spacious with great mountain view, cable TV, free WiFi. Staff was polite and helpful. Highly recommended
Breakfast buffet had plenty of options and fresh food.
The hotel was charming and the room was beautiful. All the little touches from the stone inlay in front of the fireplace to the light sconces in the bathroom gave the room a special feel full of character. Stavelos was the perfect host and made our brief stay very memorable.
Beautiful location, small pitoresque village, confortable. Good breakfast. Very clean, respecting properly the covid19 rules. It was very easy to come in contact with the property, they answer fast to messages via booking. Thank you for your hospitality!
The staff was very nice. They offered us good local sweets, and a freshly renovated room in the hotel although we booked a room at the Erofilis's Home. The hotel is placed in a good area, near the restaurants and has a nice view.
Exceptionally friendly and accomodating owner, great location just outside the centre of the village of Portaria, on-site parking, a wonderful view over the gulf of Volos, satisfactory breakfast with tasty products.
Portaria is an amazing place definitely worth visiting. The old building of the hotel is great; comfortable, clean and with a beautiful view of the sea and the towns below. The staff are very helpful and polite.
Great hospitality.Staff has very good master of English and very helpful. Messed up my booking but they transferred payment to my original dates. Highly recommend hotel.
Very Nice hotel with a very comfortable room. Nice bathroom. A good central location for visiting Portaria and Makrinitsa. You need a car, but it's a short, easy drive.
