Great location, neat hotel.
Pros:

Breakfast in the restaurant was good. Location was as great. Helpful staff, provided good recommendations for restaurants and rooftop bars nearby. Spacious rooms.

Cons:

No bathroom amenities of a shower cap etc. No milk in the room for coffee. Cigarette smoke smell throughout the interior of the hotel. We an early start which meant missing breakfast, the pre-made breakfast was not great at all. Shower didn’t drain properly, so water built up quickly. The curtains were not practical - let in a lot of light during the night with the external window lights on.

Nice hotel
Pros:

Great breakfast served a la carte, good quality ingredients. Room was modern with adequate storage. Good location close to restaurants and bars and a 15 walk to the Acropolis.

Cons:

The room was a good size but I hated the frosted glass on the toilet door. My wife doesn’t need to see me sitting on the loo nor I her. The corridors were in need of a fresh coat of paint and the carpets were ripped and frayed. Our room faced out on to a stairwell that didn’t provide much fresh air.

I loved the location it was in the center, but I was disappointed overall.
Pros:

The location is good. The view of the room was bad.

Cons:

First day nobody cleaned my room although I left the sign. I had to notify them the day after that I need someone to clean the room. The breakfast wasn't good also.

Really nice stay! I would definitely come back next time in Athens
Pros:

The room was really nice, the concierge was friendly, the restaurant or bistro was excellent and our server (who was the manager of the restaurant) was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The bistro is a hidden gem!

Cons:

See above

Pros:

Die Lage war perfekt. Alles Sehenswerte ist zu Fuss zu erreichen. Das Personal war äußerst hilfsbereit. Wir fühlten uns rundum wohl und zufrieden.

Cons:

Am Wochenende ist es in den Zimmern zur Strasse hin trotz guter Schallisolierung schon etwas lauter.
