Pros:

Ligger 10 min promenadväg fr Monastirakiou där det vimlar av restauranger, folkliv o trevliga smågator och en Metrostation.
Det finns också många restauranger och butiker i runt hotellet och en stor matmarknad.
Vi hittade en trevlig liten frukostservering runt hörnet med bra frukostalternativ.
Hotellet har bekväma sängar, stora rum, jättetrevlig och service-inställd personal som talar utmärkt engelska. Rent och snyggt.
Det finns en takterass med fin utsikt över stan.
Baren var stängd i april men man kunde ta med en egen öl och sitta där.

Cons:

Gatan utanför hotellet ser lite lite avskräckande ut, men är ok och vi upplevde den som trygg.
Receptionen (och hotellet) ligger en trappa upp fr gatan.

Ok but not a 9 star stay.
Pros:

The rooms are very clean, the bed is very comfortable and the staff was very nice and helpful. Location is excellent to visit Athens on foot. There is a small gym room which provides water and towels. Next to the hotel are two very good restaurant which you should absolutely try.

Cons:

There is a very bad smell in the building and the room we stayed in. It came from the bathroom and lasted the whole stay. Also the neighborhood is very loud duo to a hostle next to the hotel (we didn't mind but it is very loud). Although the immediate area isn’t the best, the location is excellent.

A warm and welcoming place with excellent standards of hospitality and service.
Pros:

From the moment I booked, the hotel staff were welcoming and they could not have been more helpful. Their recommendations were great.
The location is excellent for walking to all the main sightseeing places and there are many wonderful places to eat and drink nearby.
We were really happy to have room upgrades and enjoyed the space and comfort of the rooms. We appreciated being able to leave our luggage after checking out and returning later for our transfer to the airport which the hotel arranged.

Cons:

We liked everything!

Rahat güvenli güzel karşılanmalı :)
Pros:

Öncelikle otel temiz oda rahattı. Resepsiyondaki Türkçe konuşarak karşılayan beyefendi çok kibardı gece geç saatte checkin yaptığım için ismini sormayı unutmuşum beni çok mutlu etmişti 🥹 otel içindeyken güvende hissettim rahat uyudum. Ayrıca Ulaşım da çok rahattı.

Cons:

Konumunu bilmeniz gerekiyor daha önceden 6 kere Atina’ya gelmiş biri olarak bi plaka çevresini beklememeniz lazım.

Pros:

24 hour very welcoming and helpful reception staff, Tesphina and Kate were both amazing. I was upgraded to a comfortable suite, got good advise and help from both lovely members of staff. Room was quiet, bed was comfy. Good coffee in the room, fruit and candy downstairs, location was nice - a few minutes from restaurants in the evening and next to a market area during the day.
