Eine gute Wahl für all die, denen moderner Komfort nicht so wichtig ist und die Retro-Style schätzen
Pros:

Super Lage, sehr nettes Personal, Anreise auch spät nachts möglich, Preis okay, familiäre Atmosphäre

Cons:

Die sehr klassische Ausstattung muss man mögen. Wir wussten, dass es so ist, war daher okay, aber mag nicht jedem zusagen.

Booked two days at the end of my trip with you and an additional day to deal with flight change.
Pros:

Located in the heart of ghe Plaka, close to restaurants and two blocks from Adrianeau, the Plaka's major shopping street. Br

Cons:

I stayed in this hotel in 1972: At that time the owners were friendly, caring, offred a hearty, organic breakfast... This year, with new owners, the hotel common areas are still cluttered with many of the same items I found there in 1972... except, the breakfast was trerrible, dry toast, hardboiled egg, cereal, were the main it. Instead of "bzthrooms doen the hall," they "UPGRADED" each room to include a 4x6 bathroom to upgrade its hotel star rating. Thin walls and crying babies woke me in the morning. The front desk people spoke little English and could not answer simple questions about the Plaka.

Idéal pour une famille de 4 !
Pros:

Nous avons aimé l’emplacement et le rapport qualité prix.
Établissement un peu rétro en terme de déco et d’équipement mais c’est pour cela aussi que nous l’avons choisi 😊
Et le déjeuner servi est très correct !
Efkaristo !

Cons:

Les travaux au marteau piqueur dès 7h00 le matin, mais l’hôtel n’en est pas responsable !
C’est la vie.

Great location, this hotel could be so much more.
Pros:

Staff was great. The food lady was so nice and helpful. The young guy at the front desk was good and helpful but couldn't help me get a bus ticket in the internet. He doesn't trust the internet. Cleaning and housekeeping was good.

Cons:

There were lots of things that could be improved; room doors should have an inside deadbolt for night security, the current door lock doesn't hold the door tight and light streams in on the bed, there is a funny noise in room 111 as the pipes(?) heat up. It would have been nice to have a washcloth.

Great position, Good Value
Pros:

We loved Acropolis House. We took the train in to Syntagma from the airport. It was an easy walk from the station. Come out of the station onto the square. Walk straight ahead to the road, look left and cross over to the hamburger cafe - Goody’s, walk to the right across the road , go straight ahead to Voulis street, turn left walk up until you see hotel. It’s lovely to know the hotel has been owned by one family since 1965. We received a warm welcome. All staff were so friendly and helpful particularly Panayota (?). Our room was a reasonable size overlooking a small street although the bathroom was tiny. Still manageable though. The bed was comfortable, there was good lighting and WiFi okay but it dropped out sometimes. There was some noise during the evening on the street. If noise bothers you, use earplugs but it was pretty quiet later in night. Breakfast consisted of boiled eggs, olives, toast, fruit, cake/biscuits, cheese and meat and was a good start to the day
There is a lounge area downstairs near reception and it was good to be able to store our luggage on check out as our ferry didn’t leave until 10 p.m.
The hotel is in the beautiful Plaka area, close to restaurants, cafes and shops. Great place to stay. We would definitely recommend.

Worst place I have ever stayed
Pros:

Breakfast was very nice

Cons:

Dirty and unsafe electrical situation. We had to leave after the first night and get a new place and lose all of our money but it was worth leaving.
