Categories

Cleanliness
6.6
Mixed reports: daily housekeeping and towel changes praised by some, but several mentions of bathroom odour, rust, a cracked toilet seat and missing floorboard indicate maintenance and deep-clean issues.
Service
8.9
Staff repeatedly described as friendly and helpful (specific mention of 'Michael' and 24-hour check-in/left-luggage service). Service is a clear strength despite some minor operational shortcomings.
Location
9.7
Consistently praised: ideal Plaka location, extremely walkable to attractions, many notes about balcony/rooftop views of the Acropolis and excellent central position.
Room Quality
6.8
Rooms are described as somewhat dated with small showers, humidity issues and instances of pushed-together single beds on wheels; however bedding and some room features (fridge, large terraces in some rooms) were positive.
Amenities
7.2
Rooftop terrace and in-room fridge are positives; shortcomings include no coffee/milk in rooms (only tea), wifi not reaching the terrace, lack of fresh orange juice and limited terrace lighting.
Value for Money
9.2
Multiple reviewers call the hotel excellent value for its unbeatable Plaka location and price point; despite modest facilities, guests felt it 'did the job' for the area.
Food and Beverage
6.8
Breakfast receives mixed-to-negative comments: ordinary selection, food running out, weak coffee and use of concentrated juice rather than fresh; a few guests enjoyed the breakfast but issues are frequent.
Overall Experience
8
Overall a positive stay driven by location, rooftop views and helpful staff, tempered by dated rooms, some cleanliness/maintenance issues and modest F&B/amenities.

Pros:

Lokalizacja! Wszędzie blisko. Widok z balkonu na akropol i miasto. Super taras na ostatnim piętrze budynku.

Cons:

Pęknięta deska toaletowa, która nie została wymieniona od początku naszego pobytu. Zapach w łazience, kanalizacji. Zwłaszcza po obfitych opadach. Złączone łóżka, które się rozjeżdżały.

Utmärkt läge i Plaka
Pros:

Andra gången jag bor på Adams hotell. Enkelt men med bra läge i Plaka. Ok frukost. Bra städat med bäddning varje dag och byte av handdukar. Bra med kylskåp på rummet. Vi fick ett rum med en jättestor altan där vi kunde sitta och njuta av staden. Fin utsikt över Akropolis från takterrassen. Bra med möjlighet till incheckning dygnet runt och att man kunde förvara bagaget efter utcheckning.

Cons:

Väldigt svagt kaffe till frukosten men vi är nog vana vid starkare kaffe. Konstigt att bara bjuda på te på rummet och inte kaffe vilket brukar ingå. Svagt vattentryck i duschen.

Bel hôtel charmant, un peu ancien.
Pros:

Super literie. Bel emplacement. Magnifique vue sur le rooftop. Bon petit déjeuner.

Cons:

Il pourrait y avoir du jus d’orange pressé et frais plutôt que concentré. Il pourrait y avoir des lumières pour éclairer la terrasse du rooftop pour profiter de la vue le soir. La salle de bain de notre chambre pourrait être rénovée pour être mieux agencée et contre l’humidité.

Καλό σε γενικές γραμμές θέλει φταίξιμο τα δωμάτια κυρίως.
Pros:

Μου άρεσε η θέα είναι τρομερή και ότι όλα είναι κοντά. Το πρωινό είναι καλό.

Cons:

Το δωμάτιο θέλει φταίξιμο. Δηλ ένα μέρος από το ξύλινο πάτωμα έλειπε. Επίσης έσταζε σκουριά από μια βρύση.

Location is good
Pros:

Location is good and hotel was not bad

Cons:

Could work on their breakfast a bit, one morning food was running out and they didn't top up anything. We didn't get any bread or eggs and got the last bit of coffee. Not sure what the other people ate that came in after us and it was about 1 and 1/2 hour before breakfast time is up.

They also don't supply coffee and milk in the room, only tea and sugar.

We wanted a double bed and they pushed 2 single beds together which we fine but they are on wheels so the beds ran away from each other.

Excellent location and value for money
Pros:

This hotel is located in an exceptionally good position provided the extremely tourist experience of the Plaka is what you are seeking. It does the job and is excellent value in this location.

Cons:

It must be accepted that this is a modest sort of hotel with dated architecture and limited amenities.
