Very clean room. Not enough towels so ask for more. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Had wine for my husbands birthday, nice touch. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We checked our luggage early morning before check in 8am and left for the day, and they had it waiting when we got back 10pm late check in. Very much appreciated. Locked and secure area. Need codes to get into hotel. Close to Temple of Zues and gates of Athens , 20min to acropolis. Easy walk , felt safe. Breakfast was fufilling and quite refreshing. Tasty. I’d avoid the coffee personally.

Great location in the center of the city. Rooms looking over the streets are a little noisy, as any hotels would by in a big city, but the hotel provides earplugs. Lots of nice perks and great breakfast.

Great location, great staff, great stay!

What a great find! Everyone who worked there was so kind and friendly. Any questions that we ever asked they were always able to help. The breakfast were delicious. Our room was very comfortable. It was a great location for being close to the Acropolis, the Plaka, and the original Olympics venue. There were lots of restaurants nearby and we were very comfortable walking around in the streets, any time of day.

Breakfast bad, not fresh and silverware cleanliness is questionable. Overall room cleaning was was ok but bathroom had mold on the tile. Phone did not work. Tv was acting up as well, would work and then turn off on its own, or I would hear the channels but it would be blocked with Netflix screen. Elevator, another level, Like a coffin. I was afraid to ride it . Took stairs instead. The location is also very strange of this hotel. It’s close walking distance to acropolis and the museum but there are strange buildings/ stores around it. The get into hotel, you need to ring the door bell or enter your passcode . Sometimes the code did not work or there was no one at the front desk to open the door to the hotel. Had to wait outside . Very strange . Would never stay in this hotel again or recommend to a friend . Very sad (

This is a great hotel that is close to all the tourist spots without being right next to them. Everything is within walking distance. The staff was friendly and helpful and there was a nice breakfast served each morning. We had a room with a hot tub and it was worth it after a long day of wandering the city. I would definitely stay here again next time we are in Athens.

Pro: Property is close and convenient to the Acropolis south entry Con: Property is very loud (we live in a US city and still needed a white noise app at night), difficult to enter building to check in (no bell to ring/inattentive front staff), front staff did not proactively communicate amenity information (free mini bar, spa?, late check out info)

Athens trip

The hotel was a little ways from where we wanted to stay as we booked late. Would have liked to stay closer to shopping and restaurants. Overall the hotel wasn't too bad although we had 3 staying in one room and the 2nd bed was a pull out couch which wasn't the most comfortable and room was crowded with the couch out. The breakfast as ok...nothing to write home about and found we had to ask for items as the buffet bowls were empty even though we ate somewhat early.

This hotel was OK — I got a deluxe room with one double bed and a sofa bed. When we arrived, the clerk informed me that the sofa bed was really small and low to the floor and much more suitable for a child and why didn’t I book a second room. The description on Expedia said nothing of the kind (btw, it would have been better for a child). Why not say it?

Sehr zentrale Lage. Akropolis und Stadttteil Plaka zu Fuß sehr gut erreichbar. Parkmöglichkeiten hinter dem Haus vorhanden. Leider war das Frühstücksbuffet nicht so reichhaltig, es fehlte ein wenig die Auswahl an Brot/Brötchen. Ebenfalls sollten die Handtücher einmal erneuert werden.
