We've booked this room in a rush because we couldn't find that many in this area and we were lucky enough to discover a gem. For the price range this has to be the best room I have stayed. It was spacious, it had a bathtub, it was beautifully decorated and it had a view. I was so impressed that I asked the host if it was possible to check the other rooms. The host was kind enough to give me a tour of all not booked rooms. Some were big, some small, some had multiple spaces, some not, some had view, one had a jacuzzi in the room(!), but all of them were very beautiful and cozy. There's definitely something there for everyone. Breakfast had a homemade touch, variety and was delicious. The reception area had place to hang around and enjoy a coffee or read a book. Don't forget to get a home-made souvenir or a pomegranate liqueur. Maybe both, why not? The village is very small but has a bar and places to eat. If you find out that many people are selling nuts in this village there's a reason for it. The nuts are very cheap and taste amazing. Get those nuts! The village is easily approachable by car, but mind you that when we traveled there there was no snow, so your mileage may vary. There is a ski resort 10 mins away from the hotel and lots of places to go for a hike.

Beautiful hotel in small village with great nature, peace and quite. Previously we went to Litochoro (Mount Olympus) but we wanted more time in the mountains ans got recommended this place. We think it was equally beautiful, but less touristy, and more authentic. So if you love nature, would definitely stop by. Our host really made us feel at home. We got great tips for activities in the area (drinks, restaurants, hikes, waterfall), and also our room was upgraded for free due to availability. We only had one day, but would love to come back here.

The guests in the room next to us were a bit loud and woke us up at night. But this happens sometimes so no reason not to go here again :)

"I had a fantastic stay at Vaela hotel cultural resort! The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. The room was spacious, clean, and had a beautiful view of the mountains. Hotel localtion is very convenient for both summer and winter time holidays. All the amenities were top-notch. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!"

Very nice family hotel, super nice hosts . Very calm, buetiful quite peacefull green part of OLIMPOS, high on the mountains. Rooms are very warm design. But no spa as I thought and planed to relax there.....Eva was very kind to give us a much bigger room, ectually 2 rooms and balcony and bath. sauna is only in one room if you book it. Had a wonderful time!

Everything was perfect! Eva and her daughter Vanessa are warm, friendly and kind. They helped us plan a fun day in the area. The setting of the hotel is great — beautiful views and a 2 minute walk to the tavern for dinner. Breakfast is also delicious. I highly recommend staying here.

Nothing, it’s a fabulous place to stay.

we liked everything about Vaela, nice athmosphere, very clean rooms, very good breakfast and a nice owner always willing to help and guide us for the best places.

the pillows were a little bit hard for us

Very nice property, everything ok. Better yo have car to explore the surroundings. Closest market or tavern is at 5 minutes by car or 15 minutes walking distance.

The owner of the hotel was super warm and friendly. Room was exactly like in the pictures. Breakfast was delicious, fresh and even with some products locally made. Highly recommend!

it’s a beautiful hotel in a gorgeous location on top of a mountain

the road was a bit tricky in rain. check that you are not on a small village road

We had a great time ! The rooms are just amazing, the breakfast is simply delicious (and very generous!) and we spent a wonderful afternoon at the spa. We surely recommend Vaela Hotel and the village of Elatochori which is a beautiful place in the middle of nature. Thanks again !
