Such an awesome spot. Perfectly located to explore Athens - walking distance to all the major sites. The room was small, but clean and modern, and the breakfast was fantastic. The staff went out of their way to be helpful, even setting us up with breakfast to go for our early morning departure on our last day. This will become our go-to spot for stays in Athens, we can't wait to return.

Perfectly located in Plaka but a few blocks from the busiest tourist areas so it's not overwhelming. The staff was very helpful and the view of the Acropolis from the rooftop restaurant is truly stunning! Our room itself was nothing to write home about (2 twin beds instead of a queen/double), but that was our own fault due to booking late.

The stay in this hotel exceeded my expectations. My room had a lovely view on Acropolis and overall I was close to all main tourist attractions. I knew reviews were mixed so was prepared. But I had a really good experience - room was clean and being cleaned on a daily basis, rooms have fridges, kettles and tea bags/coffee offerings. Staff was very helpful on arranging transfer to the airports and in general. Breakfast is good too. Overall would recommend if you are in Athens for a short city break and do not require extra amenities like gym, swimming pool etc. Hotel restaurant is good too and has a lovely views so would recommend to book too.

I was just here for one night but it was a great experience. Very clean, very good location unless your main priority is to get to the airport, it's an hour drive, so be aware. The rooftop patio is amazing with a priceless view of the ruins. Looks especially beautiful lit up at night.

I had a marvelous 2 night stay at Central Athens hotel. The hotel is very well located but is also blissfully quiet. My room had a fantastic view of the Acropolis, with the Parthenon at the top. My bed was extremely comfortable and the breakfast was superb. The staff were friendly and helpful. The bar and restaurant have the best view in the world. I highly recommend but I also recommend that you make a booking, even for an aperitivo. I recimmwnd it highly,

Was probably to worse hotel I have stayed in in many years. Terrible front desk. Below average rooms. Got 2 twins that rolled everywhere vs a real bed for a married couple. Small shower what was cracked in many places. Only good things were view on rooftop and the breakfast was good. Very unhappy for the high price we paid.
