Five-star by Lake Pamvotis with a seasonal outdoor pool and a children's pool

The garden gives children room to move, and the lake shore is about 200 m away for a walk. The trade-off is distance: the castle quarter, with its museums and lakeside cafés, is around 3 km away, so outings with small children mean a taxi or the car. Outside the pool season, the hotel loses much of its family appeal, and I would then choose a base inside the old town.
