Comfortabele plek met kinderen in een ruime familiekamer op een goede locatie
Pros:

Het hotel is op loopafstand van het centrum en heeft een goede connectie met het openbaar vervoer. De wijk van het hotel is erg gezellig met goede restaurants en heeft een goede sfeer.

Wij verbleven met 5 personen op de familiekamer en dat was perfect! De kamer was ruim genoeg en schoon. Een leuk detail was het prachtige uitzicht op de Acropolis vanuit onze kamer!
Het personeel van het hotel was ontzettend behulpzaam bij het regelen van taxi’s en meedenken voor routes en logistiek!

Zeker een aanrader, als we weer een keer naar Athene gaan komen we zeker terug!

Alojamiento confortable en una zona verde, tranquila y bien ubicada
Pros:

Nos encantó que estuviera en el verde, las terrazas, los detalles desde las cortinas hasta las dobles almohadas. El personal muy amigable y cercano. Está en un barrio muy bohemio y esto también nos encantó.

Cons:

No se me ocurre nada mejorable.

Pros:

Zentrale Lage mit guter Anbindung an alle Sehenswürdigkeiten.
Sehr freundliches Personal.
Schöne Aussicht von der Dachterrasse.

Cons:

Das Hotel ist etwas hellhörig. Zudem ist das Badezimmer sehr klein und bietet kaum Platz.
Leider kam aus dem Bereich der Dusche oder der Toilette zeitweise ein unangenehmer Geruch aus dem Abfluss.
