Great Escapes Greece | Taschen Hotel Book

From Macedonia's mountains to the Cyclades, the Greek hotels worth planning a whole trip around.

Great Escapes Greece. The Hotel Book follows Angelika Taschen on a journey from the mountains of Macedonia in the north through the Peloponnese, home to Corinth, Sparta, and Olympia, and out to the island groups of the south. Along the way she opens the doors to the country's most memorable places to stay, from grand luxury hotels to small, personal guesthouses.

Stay at Imaret in Kavala, set in a former Ottoman complex, or at Tainaron Blue Retreat, a converted defense tower in the Mani. There are icons like Eagles Palace in Halkidiki and the Poseidonion Grand Hotel on Spetses, a converted windmill on Kimolos, island favorites on Santorini and Mykonos, restored hamlets on Corfu, and remote finds like the Mediterraneo on Kastelorizo. Rich photography and short texts fill 360 pages in a hardcover with text in English, French, and German, so it works as both daydream and trip planner.
