The hotel was great and in a great location. However, the beds were HARD and the walls were not noise proof at alll. We were woken up at 3am to a family leaving or coming back or something cause you can hear everything no matter how quite.

Just okay. Yes, it’s a convenient location but there are plenty of hotels in the area with the similar price. The wifi didn’t work most of the times. Rooms need to be updated. We got a room with “acropolis view”. The staff was friendly.

It was convenient to go sightseeing. I could walk to Sintagma, Monastiraki, and Acropori. There were many shops and restaurants around the hotel. The room was small. I stayed second floor. It has no view from window. But enough to sleep. Staffs were kind and polite. Gave me good advice when I ask something.

The staffs are so kind and friendly. One thing that you know is the room size is not correct. Hotels.com tells the room size for the double bed room is 194sqft, but it is not. There is not enough space to open 2x large size carrier.

overall the room was good value for the price my only issue is the bathroom floors and shower floor, extremely slick when wet marble tile, the shower was a challenge to stand in when using. When I asked about a mat for the shower there was not any available.

We loved our stay here! The hotel has a beautiful Greek charm with a modern twist, making it feel authentic yet stylish. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful – nothing was ever too much trouble. The location is very convenient, with attractions, restaurants, and public transport all close by. We would definitely stay here again!

The location was excellent, in the Plaka area. Very safe to walk in the area. Good air conditioning, comfortably beds, rooms are kind of small. Got a room with two twin beds. Shower was small too. The people in the reception area were nice and helpful. Didn’t like the fact that you have to leave the key of your room every time you leave the hotel. The view of the Acropolis at the roof top was gorgeous.

Couple's stay in Plaka

This hotel generally had all the necessities we required, with reasonably friendly reception staff, but it was not spectacular. They were not able to accommodate our double-bed request, instead ending up with two single beds, despite booking well in advance. We did not try the breakfast option, instead using the artisinal bakery down the road which was very yum. The hotel's system of handing your room key to the reception when you leave the building, so it can't get lost outside, worked well with the 24h reception. The hotel's location is superb, right in the heart of Plaka, with everything in walking distance.
