Rooftop bar was amazing! Breakfast was terrific. The shower head was oriented on the wrong wall of the tub so it wasn’t very easy to use, other than that the stay was comfortable.

The hotel was OK. The staff is very friendly. Nice view from the rooftop bar. It's not far to walk to the city center (Akropolis and Agora are very interesting). The interior of the hotel and the breakfast were ok.

Location is good and one subway stop away from Acropolis station. Cost 2.2 euro each to take and safe. Or we walked 15 minutes to Acropolis the first day. Its a straight line walk and easy. This hotel's roof garden restaurant has a direct sight of Acropolis and must visit to take day or night photo. We leave at 3am in the morning to catch our flight and hotel staff arranged a breakfast bag for us too. The taxi fare from airport to hotel is 48Euro flat fare. So its better to pre-arranged by hotel. ( we were charged 60 by taxi the day we arrived ). No need to book Acorpolis online if you can be there before 9am. There is no wait there at ticket office or the entrance line at South Entrance.

We've had an amazing time. From front staff, breakfast and dining to the views and location it was amazing. The 7th floor bar and the team members that served us and provided recommendations are second to. Nicholas, Theodore and Mike are like family to us. We had a wonderful experience and hope to return soon. Thank you Greece!!!!

The hotel has great staff, everyone there was extremely helpful and friendly. On the first day, we arrived early from a night flight and were sleepy and jet lagged. The reception manager gave us early priority check-in, which we were extremely grateful for. The breakfast has extended hours till 10:30 am and both cold and hot options were available. Loved the Greek yogurt they served so thick you could eat it with a fork. The hotel is within a walking distance to the Acropolis, Agora and the metro station. We walked everywhere. Definitely would stay there again and give my highest recommendation.

Hotel Ilissos was one of the most welcoming places in downtown Athens!!! They cared for me like family. The breakfast buffet was beautiful with many options, fresh international cuisine, clean facilities and rooms with incredible views of the acropolis! They helped me find my way with walking, directions the bus and Subway and how to live like a local, even though I was a tourist. I’ll definitely be back!
