Nisyrian Guest House
Welcome to Patriko
Patriko
Story
The house is located in the capital of the island, Mandraki. In the oldest neighborhood of Nisyros the ‘’Lagadi’’.
The ‘’Lagadi’’ is the oldest neighborhood of the island that was created in the 19th century in Nisyros, when pirates dominated the Aegean.
The neighborhood is hidden under the mountain (Molivi).
In this way they tricked the pirates into thinking that the island only had houses in the harbor and looted only the houses near the sea.
In this way the houses remained the same over time.

The construction of the house
The building that houses the ‘’Patriko’’ was built in 1810 by local craftsmen. The trademark of the house is the red stairs at the entrance, where at first they were painted with the burgundy color found in the shells of the island.
Purple is a natural pigment with an indelible deep red color, which has been known since ancient times as a “royal” dye.
It was a particularly valuable dye because of the difficulty of preparation and the rarity of the shells from which it is produced, so the use of clothes dyed purple was from classical antiquity a sign of wealth and power. Thus, with the purple color, among others, certain clothes of kings and emperors were dyed.

The Restoration 2019
The building where the ‘’Patriko” is housed was completely reconstructed from 2019 to 2021 in order, with respect to tradition, to host guests in a modern and luxurious space.
