EVERY VISITOR TO NAFPLIO IS ENCOURAGED TO EXPLORE THE CITY ON FOOT

Picturesque Nafplio

A visit to Nafplio is best enjoyed with a leisurely stroll through its enchanting streets. Our hotel’s central location offers the perfect starting point for exploring the city’s rich heritage. As you wander through its picturesque alleys, you’ll discover significant historical landmarks in Greece’s first capital. At the Church of Saint Spyridon, you can view the bullet mark from the assassination of Ioannis Kapodistrias. Nearby, the Land Gate marks the historic entrance to the old town, and further along, you’ll find the famed steps leading up to the Palamidi Fortress.

As you re-enter the old town, Syntagma Square awaits—a vibrant area steeped in history and surrounded by notable landmarks such as the Old Mosque, the Church of Saint George, and the Archaeological Museum. The unique neoclassical architecture, influenced by Venetian design, and the colorful bougainvillea-draped alleys will captivate you.
Take time to indulge in some shopping before unwinding at one of the local cafes or restaurants. The view of the historic Bourtzi fortress from the port is exceptional. At the end of the port, you’ll find the picturesque “Arvanitia Walk”—a one-kilometer cobblestone path offering breathtaking views of the Argolic Gulf, leading to the serene Arvanitia Beach.
