The hotel is located on the road to
Eftalou on the other side of the castle and is about a 15 minute walk from the
town. It is built on the side of a mountain with steps leading up to bungalows
of which there are 4 rooms to a building. Each room has a fantastic view of the
sea, the olive groves, the fields and Turkey which on a clear day looks like you
can touch it. At night you can see the lights of it's towns twinkling. The rooms
are big with high ceilings and a balcony big enough for entertaining guests.
Each room had an individual AC, color TV, a fully stocked fridge and by far the
nicest bathrooms we have seen on the island and maybe in Greece.
Ask about special rates during the birdwatching seaon in
the spring. Lesvos is the primary stop for birds on the migration route between
Europe and Africa and the hills and valleys near the Sunrise Hotel get their
fair share, not to mention the beautiful wildflowers that are in bloom too. The
hotel has just added a sauna and gym and a new restaurant-bar.
