PYRGOS OF MYTILINI
The Pyrgos of Mytilini, a landmark of Mytilini located in the distinguished Sourada area, is a true architectural gem. Built in 1916 by architect Ignatios Vafiadis in the Second Empire, Belle Époque style, this grand mansion, sometimes known as the “Sugar Tower” or “Engagement Tower,” has hosted prominent figures throughout its history, including Eleftherios Venizelos. Carefully renovated in 1985 with great attention to its historical details, the hotel has operated as a luxury boutique hotel since August 1999. It is situated approximately 1 km from the main harbour and city centre and 6 km from Mytilini International Airport.
The hotel’s interior is equally impressive, showcasing luxurious Louis XVI-style furniture, distinctive ceiling reliefs, and nostalgic paintings, creating a unique and romantic atmosphere reminiscent of the 19th century.
The Pyrgos of Mytilini offers 12 deluxe, air-conditioned rooms and suites (single, double, and triple configurations) spread across three floors, accessible by a beautiful sloping wooden staircase. Each room is uniquely styled, blending soft colours and fabrics with fine period furnishings. While all rooms offer views, some overlook the garden and others offer stunning views of the Aegean Sea. All rooms are equipped with a private bathroom, satellite TV, a telephone, a mini-bar, a hairdryer, a safe, and 24-hour room service. Baby cots are available free of charge.
Guests can enjoy a delicious American breakfast, including Greek specialties, in the hotel’s elegant dining room. The restaurant also offers international cuisine and caters to vegetarians and special dietary requirements. The hotel also features a 24-hour bar and a comfortable living room with a veranda.
The Pyrgos of Mytilini provides a range of services and facilities, including a 24-hour reception, luggage storage, currency exchange, private parking, and free Wi-Fi. Business facilities (photocopier, fax, and secretarial services), babysitting (upon request and at an additional charge), on-call doctor service, and hairdressing by appointment are also available.
