Great hotel amazing rooftop View
Pros:

We stayed at the charming Zafoilia Hotel in the city center. It’s a cute place, though some rooms faced a brick wall, so we asked to switch. They kindly upgraded us to a top-floor room with a spacious balcony—amazing!

The city buzzes with life, old buildings, friendly people, and busy streets filled with cars and buses. I felt completely at home.

Overall very nice place.
Pros:

Location good, on a main road (down side, a lot of traffic noise.) Clean hotel, friendly and helpful staff. Value decent, rooms nice. Amenities nice. Roof top closed for winter (we went in March - not that cold) we really just wanted to see the view.

OVERALL A PLEASANT STAY
Pros:

First and foremost, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful from the front desk to the bellhops to the bar staff. The room had modest decor but was clean and spacious. The shower ad plenty of hot water and pressure in a nice bathroom. The location is acceptable with either a decent walk or short taxi ride to attractions. The price was very reasonable. If you could rate them a 4.5 I definitely would.

Pros:

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück war auch gut. Bushaltestelle ist gleich ums Eck.

Cons:

Leider war der Pool und die Dachterrasse trotz Badewetter Ende Oktober schon geschlossen. Das war bei der Buchung nicht gut erkennbar. Die Kinder waren deshalb sehr enttäuscht.

Τριήμερο στην Αθηνα
Pros:

Το προσωπικο ηταν ευγενέστατο και εξυπηρετικότατο.

Cons:

Λογω του οτι το ξενοδοχείο είναι πάνω σε κεντρικό δρόμο, το δωματιο μας ειχε πάρα πολύ φασαρία και το βράδυ ηταν δύσκολο να κοιμηθούμε.
