Konstantinos Hiotis migrated at a very young age after the national palingenesis. In particular, he was installed in Varna, Bulgary which was built near the ancient Greek colony of Odessa and constituted the most important economic centre of the era. Spirit of discernment and creative, as genuine Tsakonas, achieved great things on a business level by creating the largest distillery unit in the region, while a significant number of residents in Leonidio worked for him. His wife Aggeliki was fellow traveler at this course, while they did not have any children. However, they have adopted the eight year old, fatherless, nephew of his wife, Michalis Sioras that they brought up like their own child. In the mid nineteenth century almost, having acquired a significant fortune, Konstantinos Hiotis has assigned to Michalis to supervise the operation of his business and has decided with his wife to return to his birthplace.

There, under the red rock of Leonidio was built his mansion house and stayed until the end of his life. The mansion house constitutes a monument of the area, but also a reference point of the family because it hosted its members with a lot of love and affection since in the difficulties of life were consoled to the arms of the elderly rulers. The time that has passed from then until today, seems to have respected the history of this house and has left intact not only the building, but also the objects. The elaborate painted ceilings and floors, as well as the piano, the Viennese chairs, the serving trays and the platters with the handmade depictions of time issues refer to another era where respect dominated to the human relations. Three generations since then, the great great grandchildren of the aforementioned and current owners of the mansion house, with effort, hack value and by respecting their inheritance, have decided to adapt their family mansion house to a modern hotel unit maintaining in a respectful way all the elements and the heirlooms.
