Each city hides a paradise. In Veria this paradise is located in the traditional area ‘Barbuta’ and it is called ‘Kokkino Spiti’. It’s impossible to a restless photographic eye, to resist the visual temptations offering this hotel.
We invite
you to stroll through the colors, art and distinctive style that embraces every
corner. Adapted not only to the wiles of
nature but also to the most demanding
tastes.
The
majority characterize it as a jewel and hence the name
Boutique hotel, a title that truly deserves.
It
stands out for its beauty and the distinctive architectural features.
Built just on the river bank of Tripotamos
offers unique view from every
room. Both the entrance and exit of this trigger the sensations which are looking for more and more.
The 'Kokkino Spiti' is a mansion in the
old jewish quarter of Veria. Built in the 19th
century, around 1840 to 1860, as
all the houses in the neighborhood.
Below you will get a photographic taste of the neighborhood that surrounds it.
From
2009 onwards,
it has been restored and functions as boutique hotel providing an oasis of tranquility, relaxation and quality
accommodation in the historic center
of Veria. It has six rooms, including a master suite, each unique and cared until the last detail. Here are some of them ...
Every
corner is painted with care and
enthusiasm. It’s hard to focus.
The
contrasts dominate the whole hotel composing an harmony
that takes you back in time. Its simplicity composes an oxymoron
prestigious identity.
It
constitutes a perfect choice for tourists
as it is located 12 km
from Vergina where there is the tomb of Philip II, the father
of Alexander the Great, 45
km from Pella the birthplace of Alexander the Great and 45 km
from Dion. It is also just 70 km
from Thessaloniki
and the nearest airport.
It
is suitable also for professionals as
it is located in the city center, there is a public parking place and all modern
amenities in the rooms. In just a few minutes walk
you can reach the city center.
The jasmine
flowers in the balcony will whisper you many secrets and will dizzy you with
the light of the early morning sun.
Pleasant to
the eye, from the beauty of the rooms, the peaceful atmosphere, the
sophisticated taste but also the surrounding natural beauty that fills the
rooms with a magnificent view. Pleasant to the ear, from the sound of the
flowing river and the travelling birds in the many plane trees at the river
side. The water of the river flows all the year and its sound offers a relaxing
moment in the center of the city, which reminds a city center in no way since
the sound of the river is the only thing you can hear.
ΕHere all seasons are welcomed and each one has its own song to sing.
Their music is everywhere.All you have to do is... listen!
The frozen landscape outside, promises it will make all warm thoughts that may worry you go away.
Relax, forget
and let nature heal you. Heal you with the fresh air and its taintless song.
The mirrors
combine perfectly with their surroundings revealing various joyful angles.
Even the
festivities here are experienced in a unique way. For those who desire to escape from the “we
have to” this is the ideal place to come.
The decorations
and the finesse create a peaceful environment. Wherever you sit, you are lost
in the pleasant silence the warm colors impose.
Night beauty at the balcony of “Kokkino Spiti”
Mystery lies beneath every stone. If I were a writer definitely I would like my first work to be born in one of these wonderful suites, each one has its own character.
Every time
I come, I leave with a different experience. Same words from my camera as well
which demands some days off after each stay in this hotel.
But also
for those who don’t write, it is a unique opportunity to delete the routine of
every day life and start a new chapter after every night.
A teaser from the master suite....
The warm color variations of the room are challenging the daylight...
We have mentioned detail, or have we not?...
It would be
a picture with no essence if I don’t talk about the soul of this magnificent
place. Don΄t know really where to start from.
From
Christos and Anastasias respect to delicacy, the restless creators of the
beauty of Kokkino Spiti?
Furthermore,
Despoina and Sylvia, who will capture you with their smile and their services.
They will transform your stay to a life time experience.
Staying in
Kokkino Spiti it would be a pity not to enjoy a short expedition in the
neighborhoods near it. You will see images from the past. And if you want to stimulate your taste,
completing your walk, “12 grada” will amaze you with their original dishes.
The
starting point here is the Jewish synagogue. The prayers have nourished the
stone of the building. It opens only certain days of the year. If you ask you
may be lucky!
The owners
Christos and Anastasia Sioukiouroglou promise to be there when you will want to
seek some days off at Kokkino Spiti. The warmth will stay in your mind for ever.

One may question...why all this?
The answer is simple, "what is beauty if not shared"?
It is so therapautic...
