Pros:

The location of the hotel is great and close to some major landmarks. The rooms were good size and bed was comfortable!

Cons:

We were utterly disappointed in the view from our window because it was the emergency escape stairs in a small corner. Part of choosing this hotel was due to hoping to get a decent view, and anything would’ve been better than what we did get. PLUS multiple times at night we heard running up and down those stairs and doors closing which was terrifying and made it that we got zero sleep because we were told no other rooms were available. The steps were right beside the window so it constantly sounded like the running was right outside the window.

We had a great time in Athens and the hotel added to the experience.
Pros:

We loved this hotel’s location, just steps from the restaurants in Plaka and less than a five-minute walk from the Acropolis entrance and the Acropolis Museum. The staff was wonderful, too. We arrived early in the morning after leaving our cruise ship, and they safely stored our luggage and delivered it to our room as soon as it was ready. Their warm hospitality made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The view of the Acropolis from their restaurant was outstanding. Just make sure to reserve a table with a view.

Cons:

I can't think of anything.

Good choice but some issues.
Pros:

Location to tours, local eats and some sites is great. Hotel rooms were comfortable as were beds. Staff were courteous and helpful.

Loved the corner balcony room with view.

View from 8th floor bar and restaurant was spectacular.

Cons:

Breakfast is laid out poorly so all the crazy impolite tourists pushing and shoving and cutting lines. Breakfast food was average.

We decided on wine and appetizers at the bar after our tour. Chatted with staff about menu. Calamari €16 plus Tzatziki €9 and we were encouraged to order 2 Calamari orders for 2 because of size. We left and went elsewhere - not paying those kind of prices for small portions. We did have charcuterie board night before and it was plain weird with breadsticks that were black, no bread or pita.
