The Best Hotels Near Anerada Hotel Kalavrita, by the Record
-
Greece has a ski resort, and this 16-room boutique hotel sits on the hillside road leading up to it. The Kalavrita Ski Center draws the winter crowd, but Anerada is comfortable enough to justify a visit when the slopes are closed, which is often. It feels more like a well-appointed private house than a hotel, with Coco-Mat mattresses, Korres bath products, and a generous breakfast before you walk into town for dinner.

A 19th-century neoclassical shell holds a quietly audacious interior, all Bauhaus angles and Danish modernist calm, in a port city most visitors speed past on their way somewhere else. This boutique hotel holds a Michelin Key, and the rooms earn it without trying too hard. The courtyard restaurant, tucked behind the old house, has the unhurried atmosphere of a film set that hasn't been struck yet.

Fir trees and hiking trails are the only neighbors at this restored stone lodge sitting high in the Peloponnese highlands. Once a soldiers' sanatorium, it was eventually converted into a luxury mountain retreat, with pale wood interiors, linen duvets, heated floors, and copper bathtubs in some suites. The wellness area leans into the setting with a cave pool, forest sauna, and hammam. Truffle hunting and horseback riding are on the activity list, which is a commitment to the bit.
