Can’t say enough good words about this hotel! Very centrally located in Athens and only 10-min walk away from the Acropolis. You are also only 1 block away from major shopping street for souvenirs. Rooftop restaurant has the most amazing view of the Acropolis. The room is a bit in the smaller side but functional.

I choose the Electra Palace, Athens anytime that I transit through Athens. The hotel is very well kept and clean, the staff is efficient and helpful and the rooms are impeccable. The roof top restaurant offers an excellent menu with high quality meal options. Best of all; the view of the Acropolis is breath taking. Polite, well informed staff at the restaurant provides the nervous traveler with a comforting feeling that you will be taken care of and appreciated.
