Great location, very clean, wonderful host, easy to find, and easy check-in. It was possible to leave luggage after check-out and pick it up anytime later. The hosts have a shop downstairs, so they were available if any help was needed.

Central Cozy Apartment 3 is located in Sparta, just a 11-minute walk from Leonida's Statue and 5.6 miles from Mystras. With mountain views, this accommodation features a balcony.
Just a 10-minute walk from Leonida's Statue and 500 yards from Museum of the Olive and Greek Olive Oil in Sparta, City Garden features accommodations in Sparta with a garden.
Very friendly and polite people. Excellent street plan, wide boulevards with trees, several little museums and old mansions near the center of the city. Walking in the deserted byzantine city/fortress of Mystras, adjacent to the city, offers a unique experience. Sparta can serve as the base for exploring many interesting places in Laconia, including the town/fortress of Monemvasia (Gibraltar of Greece, 87 km) and the nice port of Gytheion (43 km),

Lovely little town with no shortage of cafes, bars, restaurants, and small businesses of all kinds. Super view of the mountains. Walking distance to everything including ancient ruins an the statue of King Léonidas, shirt drive or bike ride to Mystras (look it up!) and about 40 minutes to Gytheio/beaches. Don't forget the olive oil, figs, pomegranates, and oranges.

There's much more to see than expected, according to previous reviews. In common with the rest of Greece, the signage is poor: you have to be determined to find your way up to the acropolis, just imagine! A really good visit. An excellent day in Mystras, a place not to be hurried.

The must-see in Sparti is Mystras site: beautiful byzantine churches with magnificent frescos, an old castle on top of the hill and the palaces of glorious byzantine families (unfortunately those last ones not visitable at the time of our visit due to works). Mystras is 6 min drive from Sparti.
For the rest, the ancient agora is worth a visit (still under excavation), Leonidas statue, Leonidas tomb and the area around the Central Square, with a few nice restaurants and cafés.
The hidden gem in this city is the Olive and Olive Oil Museum - really worth visiting!

Sparti has a small city center and limited attractions and thus a limited nightlife. Sparti’s greatest attraction is that it is literally right next to the stunning physical landscape of the Taegetos mountain range. Unfortunately, this incredible landscape has not been developed. Sparti has a strong sports/athletics culture. I believe that it would greatly benefit the city’s tourism industry to market the Taegetos mountain range to Sports and outdoor enthusiasts. Exploring the Taegetos by a hiking foot path or by mountain bike would be an awesome experience for any traveller and it would greatly enhance the international image of the city as an athletic tourist attraction.

Besides being in a beautiful location (mountains on one side, hills and olive groves on the other), Sparta was a big enough town to have lots of restaurant options, but not so major that it was overrun with visitors. The Museum of the Olive & Olive Oil is really interesting and robust, and the archaeological museum & acropolis are definitely worth the visit. The archaeological museum is small, but has a really beautiful collection including many coins. The acropolis has a few buildings to look at (including a large ancient theater), but is especially worth the visit for the views at the top.
Sparta is a great location for day trips, but its a nice city to come back to because it's got a life of it's own separate from it's tourism. You definitely can drive around Sparta, but we walked everywhere (nothing was further than 20 minutes away) and saved driving for leaving the city. When I return to the Peloponnesian Peninsula, I would stay in Sparta again as a central location.
The location is great if you are a mountain lover and the last 7km of the road is bound to have several curves. You will get rewarded with plenty of hiking paths, from short to longer ones. The village of Anavriti where this property is located is nice and the people are friendly. There are also 2 nice family restaurants (tavernas).
Less than 10Km away is the city of Sparta and the Archaelogical site of Mistras if you feel like you need some more diversity of activities.
This is basically the best place we've stayed at over our week in Greece. It's spacious, modern, and has everything you need, even if you plan on a longer stay. (For examole I mean even things like a washing machine, coffee maker or an ironing board). The view from the balcony is also exceptional and the owner is really helpful and kind. Couldn't recommend more.
If you're looking for a place to stay in Sparti or a central location to explore Laconia, this is perfect. The apartment has everything you need, even a washing machine. Good ventilation from two sides of the apartment, we didn't even need to use the AC at night. The bed is comfy too. Although there is some noise at night coming through the open windows.
Very comfortable apartment in the center of Sparti, ideal to visit Mystras. Very warm welcome by owner. Good bed, private parking. Nice terrace outside. Perfect place for short or long term stay. The charming host served us in the morning sweet cookies ( kind of loukoumades) and coffee. Thank you very much for the hospitality. We will sure come back.
The Z5 apartment is situated in the center of Sparti just close to everything. It was easy to find a place to park our car,too.
The host Marianna was very kind and cooperative and has thought of every detail in the apartment to make it comfortable. We enjoyed a peaceful and easy stay in Sparti,. Thank you!
The location was steps from the shops and restaurants of central Sparta, a block from the museum, and only a short 15-minute walk from the Acropolis and the bus station. Staff was friendly and helpful, A/C worked great, and the bed and bathroom were both clean and comfortable.
Amazing facilities. All staff were helpful and made you feel welcome. The room was very spacious and the views of the garden were great. We had a wedding at the hotel which we enjoyed a lot, the reception was absolutely stunning with a huge aquarium filled with exotic fish.
Very friendly staff at the hotel. We were able to park outside the front of the hotel and it's central location to all the sights was excellent. It was a very neat, stylish hotel with a lovely swimming pool and a great breakfast. Next time would stop longer, thank you.
This is an outstanding base to visit Sparti and Mystras. Everything you could possibly want is provided, and everything is to the highest standard. The hosts are so charming and we had fresh produce from the garden. There is a grove of very old olive trees alongside.
Everything. Staff was incredible. They treat you as if you are an old friend. Breakfast was very good. There is a pool. Rooms are clean. Location was perfect for us. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Sparta.
Friendly and helpful staff, and the hotel has a bar and elevator. As to our room, it was clean and even had a balcony. There's a small park across the street, as well as eateries nearby.
what a beautiful Apartment in the middle of SPARTI.
very clean & comfortable.
thank you George for your hospitality and all the help!!
feels like a family, hope to see you again soon.
Basic hotel near the town centre. Could park on the street outside. Nothing special, but was fine for a brief stay, given the low price. Staff were nice and spoke sufficient English.
