“Grand Sarai inhabits a beautifully restored 17th-century building, placing you squarely in Nafplio's old town, amidst the shops and restaurants. I appreciate that it balances its historic setting with modern comforts, especially the coco-mat mattresses promising a good night's sleep. Families, in particular, will find this a very convenient base for exploring the area.”
