It is virtually impossible to walk anywhere in the Peloponnese without stumbling across the ancient civilisations; Corinthians, Venetians or Spartans including Mycenae and the 4th century theatre of Epidaurus, a 12,000-seat, acoustically-perfect auditorium. Access to this land of heroes is via Nafplion and nestled within the Venetian fortress of Akronafplia, is the eponymous Nafplia Palace. Steadfast and castle-like, it overlooks the stronghold Isle of Bourtzi and the cruise liners that lie at anchor. A pearl of the Peloponnese, this is a hotel to rave about. It breaks the mould of expectation. There is a harmony of textures and muted hues; flowing fabrics and art that command attention. Imaginative spaces interacting with the dramatic ever-changing panorama. Tables elegantly set for a gourmet extravaganza. Within its walls, you feel cared for and cared about; it is a refuge from the ordinary. Quality is written in every detail; the options legion. The ancient Greek ethic of perfection lives.
