Hotel Pegasus

Hotel Pegasus details

Small, traditional and close to the beach, the Hotel Pegasus combines a great location with authentic Greek living.

For a taste of traditional Greece you can’t go wrong with the Hotel Pegasus. It’s as authentic as they come. Cue whitewashed walls, terracotta roof tiles and lots of dark wood trimmings. Plus it’s designed in the sugar cube shape that’s the blueprint for property in this part of the world.

Inside, the décor is fuss-free. The lobby leads a double life as a TV room, with plenty in the way of cushioned wood-frame sofas. A Greek buffet breakfast, and an optional English cooked breakfast, is served in the restaurant each morning.

They’ve kept things simple in the bedrooms, too, with tiled floors and a palette of royal blue, mint green and white. But with fridges, satellite TVs and Wi-Fi as standard, they come with all the extras you need. And, of course, each room also has a balcony. You can have air-conditioning too at an extra local charge.

Outside, the pool area takes centre stage. A slab of turquoise set into a terrace dotted with sunbeds and parasols, it sets the scene for relaxation. If you don’t fancy a sleep, though, you can head to the al fresco café bar and order a cocktail or two. It’s at the front of the hotel gets quite lively come the evening.

The best thing about this hotel, though, is its location. Set in the heart of Thassos Town, it’s an easy hop to the shops, restaurants and bars. Better still, it’s just a ten-minute walk to a golden sandy beach and the harbour.
