History:
On Pelion, one of the most beautiful Mountains of Greece, in 1937, a
settlement with the name Agios Ioannis was established. Agios Ioannis
is the harbour for the town of Kissos where the local boats could load
fruit or timber from the wild chestnut trees still felled and used by
carpenters today, and unload on the beach all sorts of merchandise,
even exotic goods from the Far East.
Demetris Leventis, who was characterized as a pioneer, started building
the first tourist accommodation. The original, simple accommodation was
converted in the early 1950’s to a hotel with beds for fourteen guests,
named Hotel Kentrikon.
The first visitors from Thessaloniki, soon to be followed by
holidaymakers from Athens, made the hotel a regular meeting place and a
centre of activity for their summer holidays.
The YMCA, among the first to discover this holiday destination, and
which has done so much to make it known not only to Greeks, but also to
visitors from abroad, began in the 1930’s to bring young people here on
camping holidays. The holidays have continued until the present day,
and now the third generation of campers has been enjoying their
vacations in the cool shade of the plane trees.
The hotel began to welcome its first foreign guests in the late 1950’s.
These were mainly Austrians from the area around Vienna, where the
secret of Mount Pelion and the superb holidays to be enjoyed there had
spread by word of mouth.
Today, half a century from then, and through an organized attempt and
participation in the tourist development of Pelion, the younger
generation of the family of Leventi operate the hotel all year around.
The hotel facilities combined with the services offered by Les
Hirondelles offices have thousand of guests every year that follow a
quality Management System that is in accordance with ISO 9001:2000.
It is the personal attention to every detail and the high standards of
the family, with their 60 years of experience in catering for tourists
in the Pelion region, which will give your holiday at the Kentrikon
Hotel its special character.
One of the first hotels in Agios Ioannis, the Kentrikon was fully
renovated in 1983 and extended by adding the Bungalows wing.
Recently, after the renovation carried out in 2000, the hotel offers
top-quality service to its Greek and foreign guests. The hotel is open
all year round.
Located in the centre of the village the hotel is designed in the shape
of an amphitheatre on five levels, with access ranging from 20 to 100
steps. The hotel is in a quiet area, just 30 metres from Agios Ioannis
beach, 500 metres from the beautiful and deserted Plaka beach and 800
metres from the famous Papa-Nero beach.
Agios Ioannis for the summer period is in the advantaged position to
offer three famous beaches (Papa-Nero, Plaka and Agios Ioannis) and
full tourist infrastructure making it an ideal tourist destination.
From the little harbour, where you can hire a boat or anchor your own
craft, it’s only a short distance to dozens of beaches, small and
large, or points of natural beauty like the caves of Poseidon, or
Fakistra, or Damouchari’s harbour, Horefto beach and so many other
places.
