Categories

Cleanliness
1
Mixed signals: many guests repeatedly praise very clean rooms and overall hotel cleanliness, but one review reports inconsistent housekeeping (missing towels/soap) which lowered the net sentiment slightly.
Service
1
Generally strong positive mentions — several reviewers call staff friendly, helpful or amazing and note quick problem resolution; a single comment about an unfriendly receptionist reduces the enthusiasm but overall service is positive.
Location
1
Location is frequently praised (close to metro, near Acropolis/tourist areas), though a few note surrounding run-down buildings, roadworks and street issues which temper the score slightly.
Room Quality
1
Rooms described as new, well-equipped and comfortable by many, but some issues reported (connected mattresses/non-doubled bed, noise from street, limited AC control) produce a small negative adjustment.
Amenities
1
Facilities are described as new and breakfast/amenities are generally good; however reported problems (AC temperature control, uncontrolled groups of schoolchildren in common areas) slightly lower the amenities sentiment.
Value for Money
1
Some reviewers explicitly mention good value or satisfaction for the price, but several tradeoffs (noise, neighborhood issues, housekeeping lapses, AC control) reduce perceived value for some guests.
Food and Beverage
1
Breakfast is repeatedly praised (rich buffet, excellent/delicious), with a few complaints about cold food and one negative pizza comment; overall F&B sentiment is positive.
Overall Experience
1
Overall impressions are mostly positive with multiple 'great' and 'magnifique' comments, but recurring negatives (noise, neighborhood, occasional service/housekeeping issues) slightly lower the aggregated overall sentiment.
* This sentiment is summarized by AI based on user reviews.

Pros:

Petit déjeuner très varié et très bon.
Personnel très sympathique et reactif en cas de problème. Service impeccable.
Bien situé.

Cons:

Le système de climatisation, totalement indigne d’un 4*.
En mi-saison, si une personne demande un peu de chauffage, par exemple pour mettre 23° dans sa chambre, alors tout le système de climatisation de l'hôtel bascule en mode chauffage, donc si vous voulez 19° dans votre chambre pour dormir sans avoir trop chaud, c’est impossible ! Vous pouvez regler 23 ou 24 ou 25 dans votre chambre mais pas 19 ou 20 puisque le système general de climatisation est en mode chauffage.
L’accueil nous a dit 2 soirs différents d'ouvrir la fenêtre sur l'extérieur pour avoir du frais... je vous laisse juge du système de climatisation de cet hotel 4*...
Donc je pense aucun souci en été quand tout le monde veut du froid ou en hiver quand tout le monde veut du chaud. Mais sinon, bonne chance.

Pros:

We visited the hotel two weeks ago, breakfast items have been added there is the possibility to order what you want.

Cons:

Carpets must be changed in the hallways of the rooms. They should change carpets in the hallways, adding a sign with floor number when exiting elevators.

Un personnel en or !
Pros:

La literie , le personnel de la réception, tranquillité.

Cons:

Les tapis des corridors sont très sales. Contrairement à ce qui est annoncé, il n’y a pas de salle à manger ou restaurant. Les petits déjeuners sont corrects, sans plus…les œufs sont froids et les choix sont peu variés. Comme plusieurs l’ont mentionnés, l’environnement de l’hôtel, particulièrement en soirée, est plutôt glauque ( mendiants, junkies,) évitez la rue Dorou en soirée!
