Ananti Resort & Spa

What a great experience - we enjoyed every minute. The staff are extremely friendly and attentive. Food very good. The pool stunning. We stayed here for a wedding. The hotel did a top job. So nicely decorated with beautiful flowers on the tables, fairy lights, very romantic. The buffet for about 200 guests was scrumptious.

The hotel is located outside of the city. The Spa is great and so are the girls there. If you go for the spa that's ok. But, the service of the hotel is unacceptable for a 5 star hotel!! Stay somewhere else and go there only for the spa. Very poor management. It seems that they don't have a lot of guests so they treat you as a walking wallet. They even charge for the espresso in the breakfast (5 star hotel!!).

We spent 3 nights - couple and a 10 Yr old - with the focus on visiting Meteora. We nicknamed it our James Bond hotel as that is what it looks like from a distance! View, pool and restaurant all very modern, clean and superb. Lots of people come for a day visit to use the pool (free bottles of water given) and even more for sunset cocktails. Quite a few instagrammers posing but that's fine. We stayed for dinner 2 nights. Rare for us but we were so comfortable and relaxed and our daughter loved the spaghetti with red sauce and I had the risotto both times, it was so delicious. Wine is divine too. Service a little slow but we were in no rush and all the staff were super lovely. Breakfast is great with lots of Greek delicacies. I loved my cafe freddo every morning! Only 20 min drive to the ecstatically amazing Meteora. Trikala is 10 min drive but bear in mind shops shut in the afternoon and i recommend google mapping car parks as street parking is hard to find. Lots more restaurants and cafes to choose from The only minus is that the rooms need an upgrade in comparison to the contemporary look of the rest of the hotel. Clean, functional but business like and could just do with some brightness. Definetley recommend as best hotel in the area for visiting Meteora.

Wonderful hotel on a hill with great view on the surrounding area from the rooms, the restaurant and the outside pool. The rooms are comfortable, not top level but with all comfort you need. The sundeck with outdoor pool is just amazing !! All very new and very nice, great service at the pool and the restaurant is just next to it with outdoor seating area close to the pool. Amazing views. The hotel also has a brand new indoor wellness area with sauna, steam bath, small indoor pool and area for massages. Very friendly personnel everywhere. Nice breakfast buffet with espresso coffee, good restaurant (not top level, but good), a bit slow service at the bar/restaurant, but overall very happy with our stay. This is the best hotel close to the Meteora region (just 30 minutes drive). Highly recommended, we would for sure come back if we visit this area again.
