מקום מהמם. שווה. יש את המסעדה על הגג, שאפשר לראות את הנוף של האקרופוליס.
מיקום מעולה, ממש במרכז הקניות של אתונה.
אל תחשבו פעמיים.

A lovely clean hotel in a great location.
Pros:

We have stayed at the property before and love the location. Staff were courteous and helpful. The roof top bar/restaurant have been updated and it's a great place to visit. Unfortunately I had difficulty getting in and out of the bathtub to have a shower as the tub was VERY deep and narrow. My husband had to wait in the bathroom until I finished so he could help me in and out.

Room was very very small. I wish outside of the Plaka reflected the inside. Very dated. Breakfast buffet was decent. Bed was comfortable. Absolutely no sound proofing to the outside noises. Very loud

Pros:

Quaint hotel in an ideal Plaka location. Would have given it 4 stars except the room we were given was on the 6th (top) floor under the rooftop restaurant. All we heard each evening tom 6-midnight were chairs scraping/dragging across the floor. Very annoying especially the last night when we had to retire early for a very early morning taxi to the airport. Also, there was only one mirror in the bathroom making it challenging for my wife to dry her hair as the only plug was outside the bathroom.
