Clean, very very well located and friendly helpful staff
Pros:

The hotel doesn't look much from outside but the rooms are ideal for a short break, clean and well equipped with toiletries, cold water and nice chocolate bars. What we really did like was its location you can walk to everywhere central within 20 minutes, loads of nice restaurants within a few minutes of the front door. The Acropolis is 15 minutes walk away and there is an underground station 2 mins away (we didn't use it) we walked or used the open top city tur busses. Sadly the roof top bar was closed for renovation I am sure when this is open it will be great place to end the night sipping cocktails watching the world go by. If you want a taxi to the airport use the welcome app, worked very well and cheaper than other options.

Cons:

Nothing

Our best pick for a trip to Athens
Pros:

Great location near the city centre and metro station. Excellent and warm welcoming staff. The rooftop bar was under construction so we didn’t use it and the breakfast was served in their sister hotel which is very close and also with great view to the Acropolis. The breakfast was very good and delicious. Surely will visit again.

Cons:

Everything was great.

We’d return. Completely enjoyed our stay.
Pros:

The location is amazing. The plaza across the road is THE PLACE for gatherings, music, shops and restaurants. The weekend evenings are lively. Train station, literally across the road at The Plaza as well.
The Parthenon is visible from our room on the first floor. Lit up at night it’s a site to behold.
The room very comfortable as was the bed.
A small elevator to upper floors.

Cons:

Honestly, it was a 10 out of 10.

Perfect! I’ll be back!
Pros:

The staff were exceptional! I appreciate all of the assistance and friendliness of each staff member. The views were amazing. Many activities are close by and it’s near the subway. The bed was comfortable. I could not be happier. I did have one girl (I didn’t get her name but she told me that she was from Africa) that deserves an extra shout out. She was so kind!
Posting pictures from my deck in the sky!

Magical setting and fun area
Pros:

Maybe the best view we’ve ever had anywhere! Facing the Acropolis over the energetic square and market was fabulous. The windows were great so it was not noisy. Storage was good, room was very large, big windows. Lots of plugs. The rooftop is being terminated so had to walk across street for breakfast but it was very good- they also offered a free drink on the sister property rooftop but our view was so good we just stayed in. Small elevator and be careful not to get your boat trapped as the inside doors close!

Cons:

No bathtub and could have had another bathroom shelf

Great little hotel. We’ll be back.
Pros:

The people at the reception desk were wonderful. Super helpful with directions, too. Our balcony view of the Acropolis was fabulous. The central location made it easy to get to different venues. Close to Metro Station, though we did not use it.

Cons:

Disappointed that the rooftop bar was closed for renovations.
