J/PR Appointed UK PR Agency For Grand Forest Metsovo: The Best Kept Secret Of The Dolomites Of Greece

J/PR is delighted to announce its appointment as the UK PR agency for Grand Forest Metsovo, a hidden luxury retreat perched 1,350 metres above sea level in the Pindus Mountains of Northern Greece - the “Dolomites of Greece”.

A member of The Leading Hotels of the World, Grand Forest Metsovo is a destination in its own right, proudly positioning itself as a mountain with a hotel, not the other way around.

Surrounded by the ancient forests of Pindus National Park - home to golden eagles, brown bears, and over 80 bird species - the family-owned property enjoys a rare alpine-Mediterranean climate with four distinct seasons, positioning it as a true year-round destination.

Set on a private mountaintop estate overlooking the historic village of Metsovo, one of Europe’s most unspoiled regions, Grand Forest Metsovo masterfully blends traditional architecture with contemporary comforts across 10,000 square metres of nature-integrated design.

Guests seeking authentic adventure and mindful travel can immerse themselves in a diverse range of experiences, from wild truffle hunting and kayaking to hiking and skiing, making it ideal for conscious travellers seeking meaningful, off-the-beaten-path experiences.

Rooted in privacy, authenticity, and deep respect for nature, the retreat invites guests to slow down and reconnect, enhanced by locally inspired cuisine and personalised hospitality. Just minutes away from Metsovo’s vibrant village centre, famed for smoked cheeses, artisanal bakeries and rich local wines, Grand Forest Metsovo is a sanctuary that balances seclusion with cultural richness.

Exquisite Accommodations

The property features 62 all-suite accommodations that blend effortlessly into the alpine landscape, where every detail is inspired by the wild beauty of the surrounding wilderness. Many suites open onto sprawling terraces, inviting guests to soak in sweeping panoramic views of the majestic Pindus Mountains.

Designed with families in mind, the retreat offers spacious suites and a host of thoughtful touches for little adventurers, from a lively kids’ club and indoor playground to attentive babysitting and family-friendly dining options. It’s a place where all ages can unwind, explore, and create lasting memories together.

Culinary Excellence

​​Guests can embark on a bespoke gastronomic journey across three distinctive venues set against breathtaking mountain vistas. At Metsovo 1350m, Executive Chef Gikas Xenakis breathes new life into traditional Epirus cuisine, transforming local, seasonal ingredients into imaginative dishes, from cosy, melt-in-your-mouth fondue by the fireside during ski season to light, vibrant creations that celebrate summer’s bounty.

For those seeking a more intimate escape, The Pines offers private dining experiences that feel like a secret shared with the mountains themselves. Meanwhile, The Lobby welcomes guests with its laid-back, inviting vibe, perfect for relaxed, casual meals that still pack plenty of flavour. Together, these venues craft a dining journey that’s as diverse and inspiring as the landscape surrounding them.

Wellness and Recreation

Inspired by the Aspen tree, a symbol of resilience and growth, The Aspen Spa offers a tranquil alpine sanctuary where ancient Greek wellness traditions meet modern healing. Guests can enjoy tailored treatments such as detoxifying scrubs, restorative massages, hydrotherapy, and hot stone therapies, with seasonal signature rituals and bespoke options enhancing the personalised wellness journey. Facilities include a hammam, sauna, jacuzzi, fully equipped gym, heated indoor pool, and an outdoor infinity pool boasting panoramic mountain views.

For those seeking balance through nature, the property offers immersive, guided experiences such as wild truffle hunting, canyoning, hiking, and mountain biking, along with the rare and exhilarating opportunity to ski in Greece’s spectacular Pindus Mountains. Each activity is thoughtfully crafted to mirror the rhythms of the surrounding landscape, creating a holistic experience that leaves every guest feeling reconnected, restored, and inspired by the extraordinary natural beauty of Northern Greece.

Sustainable Luxury

Sustainability lies at the heart of Grand Forest Metsovo, woven into its very soul and spirit. From its eco-conscious design and energy-efficient systems to menus that celebrate locally sourced ingredients, every detail is rooted in a deep respect for the land and its people. The retreat proudly champions regional artisans and producers, helping preserve the cultural fabric of Northern Greece while forging connections with the surrounding community.

Guests can also explore the nearby UNESCO-listed Meteora monasteries or venture to the sparkling Mediterranean coastline - experiences that add cultural depth to the journey and reflect the property's heartfelt commitment to honouring and protecting this extraordinary region’s natural and historical heritage.
