The dinner in the restaurant was tasty and nicely arranged. The service was beyond disappointing. The rejection was palpable.

Ended up here trying to find a place to eat that was open. Good surprise! Very good food, including nice local options, very reasonable priced and super friendly staff. We enjoyed it and are recommending the goat milk ice cream :-)

Very nice area, friendly service, rarely tasty food. Location is perfect if you have 2-3 days to visit surroundings of national park. The only minus is that there is not a lot to do in the manor itself and rooms are a little bit old. Rooms in the first floor have private terraces which are very nice. I would come back here again.

Argos Theater

The ancient Argos Theater was built in 320 BC. and is located in Argos, Greece against Larissa Hill. Nearby from this site is Agora, Roman Odeon, and the Baths of Argos. The theater is one of the largest architectural developments in Greece and was renovated in ca 120 AD.

The Hellenistic theater at Argos is cut into the hillside of the Larisa, with 90 steps up a steep incline, forming a narrow rectilinear cavea. Among the largest theaters in Greece, it held about 20,000 spectators and is divided by two landings into three horizontal sections. Staircases further divide the cavea into four cunei, corresponding to the tribes of Argos A high wall was erected to prevent unauthorized access into the theatron and may have helped the acoustics, but it is said the sound quality is still very good today.

Around 120 CE, both theaters were renovated in the Roman style.
