XO Private - The Luxury Travel Collection
The finest online directory for the discerning traveller

‘Unique’ isn’t the half of it. The setting, history and aesthetics of the Nafplia Palace are truly out of the ordinary. It is justly famous for its location within the ancient site of Akronaflia, the bougainvillaea–entwined Old Town of Nafplion (first capital of modern Greece), as well as for its views of the Bay of Argolis in one direction and the 18^th–century walls of the Palamidi fortress in the other. History–lovers will know the hotel is surrounded by the treasures of ancient Greece, including three World Heritage sites.

But what really distinguish the Nafplia Palace are its 33 individually decorated villas, of which 16 boast private heated pools or outdoor Jacuzzis. Moreover, the bathrooms at the hotel are large enough to be qualified as a suite–within–a-suite.

The hotel offers access to the Arvanitia beach at the foot of the promontory. Guests can stroll down to the spa operated under the name of Europe’s famous ‘Institut Dominique Chenot’, or just think about doing so from the comfort of their own private infinity pool, as they notch the water temperature up with the touch of a digital panel.
