Did not meet my expectation for a luxury hotel
Pros:

View of Acropolis

Cons:

The room I initially got was on the 7th floor, right below rooftop cate/bar/restaurant. All night heard thumping of music and then starting at 7:00 am heard chairs constantly sliding/moving from breakfast buffet. After complaining was relocated to 6th floor. Didn’t appreciate the whole experience

Pros:

Location, very clean

Cons:

Unfortunately, I haven’t found the concierge’s restaurant recommendations particularly impressive. For example, when I asked for a special restaurant recommendation to celebrate our anniversary, I was directed to Balcony Restaurant & Bar, which did not feel like a memorable or exceptional choice for such an occasion.

This is hotel is very romantic and perfect for a stay in a wonderful city like athens!
Pros:

The staff here exceptionally nice, so helpful and kind. The pool facilities were beautiful and the drinks were tasty! The hotel restruant had good food and the view was amazing. Such a romantic experience in this hotel.

Cons:

If i had to nitpick things I didn't like I'd say the rooms were definitely a bit small. My stay here was part of a 4 week 9 hotel vacation across Greece, Italy and, France and this hotel had the smallest room of all. That being said it was still a great room.
