Argini Hotel invites guests in a symphony of history and luxury in the heart of Syros

Nestled at 11 Apollonos Street in Ermoupolis, Syros, the newly-opened Argini Hotel blends historical grandeur with contemporary luxury. This five-star gem dates back to 1853, originally built for Grigoris Paikos, a Philiki Etairia member. The Polykretis family has meticulously restored this neoclassical building, preserving its original wood and marble staircase, fireplaces, and 19th-century ceiling paintings by Cleopatra Tsourakis. The hotel’s design harmonizes aesthetics and functionality, featuring elements from Gessi, Flos, and Poltrona Frau, with exquisite marbles like Covelano Macchia Vecchia and Grigio Carnico. Amenities include an indoor pool, jacuzzi, hammam, and a rooftop bar offering stunning views and innovative cocktails. Elexis Restaurant, crafted with the Trastelis group and led by chef Nikos Stamatis, presents a cosmopolitan menu celebrating local ingredients with dishes like Syros kopanisti, fava beans with caper jam, and ceviche with yuzu and coconut milk. Inspired by Argini Benaki-Salvagou, a notable figure from Syros, the hotel offers an experience that transcends the ordinary.
