Best place in the city for boutique experience close to everything you want to see in Athens.
Pros:

Fantastic location, amazing rooftop bar, and helpful staff!

Cons:

I stayed here many years ago. This stay, the room was showing some signs of age and felt like it was time for a refresh — but the hotel itself is still great. I would stay here a third time.

Excellent location and great value. Recommend.
Pros:

The location is great and on the edge of all the action and main sites. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful from opening doors to helping with taxis.

Cons:

We were on Floor 7 facing the Acropolis and the breakfast buffet was above our room. We could hear chairs scraping the floor starting about 7:30 am. The balcony was too hot to use until close to sunset. Our final night the air conditioner wouldn’t work and the room was very stuffy and hot.

Pros:

Бяхме с много голяма кола, но и това намери своето прекрасно решение:) Много благодарим на персонала!
Стаята надхвърли нашите очаквания:при резервация на стая с гледка към Зевс, получихме стая с гледка към Акропол!
Невероятно изживяване! И закуската, и една от вечерите - на покрива, с сияещ Акропол пред нас:) Обслужването, закуската и най-вече невероятно разположение - на две крачки от най-важните забележителности - това направи почивката ни истинско ЧУДО!
Благодарим Гърция за тези незабравими емоции!

Centraal gelegen netjes hotel voor stedentrip
Pros:

Gunstig gelegen hotel, Akropolis en andere highlights op loopafstand, en de kamers waren schoon. De bedden lagen verrassend lekker. Het ontbijt en diner waren erg goed!

Cons:

Bepaald personeel in de rooftopbar leek niet altijd gemotiveerd; kwamen niet vragen of we nog wat wilde drinken of iets dergelijks, overig personeel was onwijs aardig en gastvrij.

Pros:

We were stunned to arrive and find our room had a HUGE balcony that overlooked the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the Arch of Hadrian directly in front of us, and a GORGEOUS view of the Acropolis behind us. We were in room 702 and would highly recommend it for this reason. Bed was comfortable, water pressure good, excellent A/C. Fantastic location for exploring the Acropolis, shopping and good food. Very helpful staff, easy check in. This was a the perfect choice for us to spend an afternoon and night before flying out from the ATH airport for home.

Cons:

A little noisy because the restaurant is on the 8th floor and we were on the 7th. Chairs moving around and general clunking noises, felt like we were on a cruise with the buffet one deck above.. Didn't ruin our visit, but noticeable.

Pros:

The location of this hotel is excellent- walking distance to plaka, acropolis and the Museum. The Key Tours office is also 2 min walk; very handy as we went on tours with them to Delphi and Meteora as well as Mycenae. The rooftop restaurant has amazing views of the Acropolis. The concierge staff happily kept our luggage securely whilst we were away on a 2 day tour.

Cons:

The road noise if your room faces the street was not ideal.
