Why we like it:
mountain feel, good inn, beautiful views, ski
OUR REVIEW
The mountain village hotel. Having climbed the
mountain roads (by car we trust!) Granitis Hotel is a welcoming sight.
The stone building is simple in design but conceals a warm and
spacious lounge and bar, dining area (in season and holidays) with views of the
seasonally-changing trees and some distant peaks. A little over
half an hour drive from the ski area at Falakro. A wonderful, rural, twisting
and scenic drive from Serres (you should make this journey as an
outing in its own right!). Drama is an almost equally rewarding trip
and the town has a local, regional feel worth sampling.
This is not a luxurious hotel, but comfortable and
tasteful, neatly furnished and in a location that sets it apart.
Though not only a ski lodge - you might well ski using this as your
base camp... Granitis Hotel Photo Gallery
