Micra Anglia, a boutique hotel inspired by the original mansions of Andros
When you pass the Micra Anglia’s portal, you are instantly charmed with the neoclassical architecture, a remnant of the times when Andros was known as Little England. The Boutique hotel, named after the island, is a complex of three 19th century mansions; one of them belonged to the beloved Greek poet Andreas Empirikos, among the most influential Greek poets of the 20th century. The interior blends the grandeur of the mansions and a modern touch.
Around every corner of Micra Anglia lies a magical detail, from the wrought iron chandeliers to the oak floors passing by the stone walls. Retreat to the garden for a sunbath on the terrace or dive into the vast pool. Enjoy a sensorial experience with the impeccable spa services and discover the fine cuisine at the chef’s table. The serenity of Micra Anglia Andros makes it a favourite getaway for a weekend of retreat and inspiration.
