Micra Anglia is an intimate boutique hotel set within a lovingly restored 19th-century mansion in the heart of Andros Town, where aristocratic heritage and contemporary refinement come together in an atmosphere of quiet, cultivated elegance.
Once the private residence of poet Andreas Embirikos, the house retains its original sense of stature, with tall ceilings, graceful proportions and carefully preserved neoclassical detailing lending a feeling of understated grandeur throughout. The restoration has been handled with a gentle hand, allowing carved wood, soft-toned finishes and natural materials to sit comfortably alongside lighter, more contemporary touches, creating interiors that feel both rooted in history and effortlessly liveable rather than overly styled.
Accommodation follows the same considered approach, with each room and suite individually composed to emphasise light, balance and a sense of calm. Options range from more intimate spaces to expansive suites and private residences, including sea view suites and houses with their own pools, each offering a more residential feel than a traditional hotel layout. Subtle detailing, warm textures and well-proportioned living areas give the spaces a sense of quiet confidence, while select rooms open onto views across the town, gardens or coastline.
Dining is centred around Dolly’s Restaurant, where modern Mediterranean cooking reinterprets traditional flavours with a lighter, more contemporary touch, served in a setting that looks out across the town and surrounding greenery. The experience is further elevated by a dedicated wine room, where a thoughtfully curated selection of Greek and international labels adds depth and occasion, while the bar and lounge spaces provide a relaxed setting for drinks throughout the day and into the evening.
The overall pace remains measured and unhurried, shaped by a discreet level of service and a setting that encourages guests to settle in rather than move through. An outdoor pool offers a calm focal point during warmer days, while the surrounding neighbourhood brings Andros’ cultural character to the doorstep, with galleries, museums and everyday island life all within easy reach, creating a stay that feels both immersive and quietly removed.
A small but thoughtfully designed spa introduces a more restorative element, with a hammam, treatment rooms and a range of wellness therapies providing a welcome contrast to the warmth of the island, alongside spaces dedicated to relaxation and gentle downtime.
Situated in Andros Town, the hotel is within walking distance of the Archaeological Museum and the Museum of Contemporary Art, while the beaches of Gialia and Piso Gialia lie around 1 km away, placing both culture and coastline comfortably within reach.
