Λαγού Ράχη - Lagou Raxi - Λαγού Ράχη - Lagou Raxi

I was at the hotel for the “Friends of the Kalderimi” lunch in December. We were 40 people and 38 of us had a great time. The price was very cheap and it included not only a great meal but also Glühwein and delicious pies at the meeting point. We had two people that wanted to keep their huge dogs in the restaurant. Thank God they were asked by staff to take their dogs out on the balcony (sunny day) because our annual Christmas lunch at Lagou Raxi is very popular and it was crowded with people. I cannot understand the reviews of Evelyn Miedema and Sjoerd Swart (couple). What amount did they expect to pay in a European country with European taxes? Would you guys find a meal with pork fillet and chicken fillet for less than 12.00€ per person in your country? You should know that 3.50€ for a FULL glass of wine and 4.00€ for a beer is cheap and you are being ridiculous and stingy.

A wonderful experience of rural Greece and its villages I had a second floor room with a beautiful view of the sea and surrounding islands. The room had a separate bathroom with shower with hot and cold water and toilet. The room overlooked the swimming pool and gardens and had excellent WiFi reception. The food was delicious and the hospitality excellent with answers and actions if needed to all your questions. The authentic Greek village is but a short 10 minute walk with beautiful indoor and outdoor cafes and restaurants. There is a museum of sculpture and traditional village square and church. All people were helpful and professional and the village has a pharmacy with excellent service and help. The hotel resides on the hill above the seaside village of Milina with excellent beach with restaurants cafes and attractions as well as hairdressers. This can be reached in approximately 40 mins on foot through olive orchards on the kalderimia foothpathes with many species of flowers and vegetation. Weather during the stay was sunny in September with temperature range from 22-28 deg C.

Thankyou Sue and your wonderful staff for a very comfortable , enjoyable stay in your super clean and friendly hotel . We have had a fantastic time visiting the beautiful,local beaches and sampling tasty dishes at your hotel and in seaside tavernas. The pool and bar/cafe help to make it a perfect holiday ! *****

A hotel from hell. We booked a room with lagou raxi in August 2020 for two nights as a part of our 2 week honeymoon trip to Pelion. We booked a sea view room with the hotel and communicated over 2 months in advance that we are on our honeymoon. We arrived at the hotel to check in at about 7PM and were fully charged for our stay before we were showed or let into our room. When the receptionist took us to a room, the room was far from what we have seen in the photos (literally a different room),it had two single beds (!!), the room had crazy cigarette stench, mold in the shower and the tiny balcony looked out on to another building and did not even have a partial sea view. It’s important to mention that this place charges well above the local nightly average as it’s suppose to offer a more premium experience but instead, offers a worse experience than a cheap gas station motel. When we told the receptionist this is not the room we booked and told her about all the things that were wrong, she told us our room was probably given to someone else and that since they are at full capacity at the moment and there’s nothing she can do now (we booked well over two months in advance and last time we checked booking a hotel stay is not a first come first serve kind of thing). We then spoke to the hotel owner who was incredibly rude, abrasive, not solution oriented and quite honestly just had a disgusting attitude (especially towards guests) who told us that she doesn’t deal with stuff like this and her operations manager that is on vacation and will return after we would already leave. We decided that since it’s already getting late and we didn’t really have time to look into other options, that we would stay the night and try to get to a resolution the next morning. We had to sleep on the floor with the two mattresses next to each other (see pics). The next day we spoke to the receptionist who brought us in to talk to the hotel owner again only this time, the level of rudeness and language she used crossed every possible line for us to the point that we decided that we will not stay there another minute. Right before we left, my partner asked me if we should at least have breakfast before we leave as we paid for that as well as the next night and breakfast but after looking at the line of people stacked inside with about 10-20 cm between them, wearing no masks (even though they should have complied with local restrictions and requirements to stay open during the pandemic) we decided to pack our bags immediate and leave. We had asked the hotel owner to give us a confirmation that we had returned the key and checked out a night before for liability issues and she refused to do that vigorously and told us to take up our complaints with booking.com This business has been reported to the European consumer center as well as the local Greek ministry of tourism and quite honestly should not exist under the current management. We loved every other place we stayed in Pelion and had amazing hospitality during the rest of our trip. We highly recommend to stay away from this place.

If you're looking for a pleasant place to stay to visit Pelion, go to Lagou Raxi! The rooms are spacious and clean, the owner Sue is a most welcoming host, the view is amazing. We took beautiful walks around the hotel. Thanks for everything!

Lovely hotel, wonderful view, great breakfast. The staff were kind and very accommodating. The room was clean and comfortable. Can’t wait to go back.

Beautiful hotel, with the most stunning views, pool and outside bar area. Rooms and bathrooms are spacious and clean. Staff are friendly and helpful. We can't wait to come back!

I spent 10 days here in Sept 21 doing a botanical art course. This is a very comfortable hotel with an exceptional view, and the owner Sue Wake could not have been more welcoming or helpful. Staff were cheerful and the kitchen made me delicious vegetarian meal options for our set group meals. Breakfasts are fabulous, I ate far too much, impossible to resist. Spacious room, very comfortable bed, and good shower. The area is lovely, up in the hills, and the village of Lafkos is unspoiled, quiet and charming. There are some great beaches within 20 mins drive and Sue made recommendations for those and local tavernas. Overall a delightful hotel, ideal for hosting a course / workshop too, and I intend to return in the Spring.
