Fodor's Expert Review Cotommatae 1810 Guesthouse

This old mansion has been refurbished into a lovely boutique hotel by a descendant of the original owners, a wealthy and well-known Hydriot shipping family, without losing its original charm. You can choose from one of seven stylish rooms or suites with names like Sponges, Pigeon House, or Icons. The Pigeon House suite has a private Jacuzzi, but all have soft and welcoming beds, warm-brown wooden antiques and sections of exposed stone walls showing off the well-crafted original masonry work. The breakfast includes freshly squeezed orange juice, warm cheese pies, and homemade jams—served in the shady Mediterranean garden.
