Wonderful welcoming hotel in great location with great staff, made our brief visit to Athens very special.
Pros:

Very friendly helpful and cheerful staff….especially in reception who made the visit a ‘wow !’ experience right from the very start. The view from the rooftop restaurant was stunning and we booked and enjoyed an excellent evening meal. We booked a basic room and it was all that we needed…..clean and comfortable.

Cons:

It was all good.

Wonderful hotel!
Pros:

The hotel was in a perfect location where we could walk everywhere. We had a wonderful view of the Acropolis from our room. We had the 2BR suite. The breakfast was delicious. We were able to check in early which allowed my grown son to take a nap while my husband and I explored the Ancient Agora.

Cons:

Nothing

I highly recommend the Central Hotel for your stay in Athens
Pros:

The location to the Plaka, restaurants and attractions was great. Their rooftop restaurant and the view of the Acropolis is stunning. The front desk staff are accommodating and when we left very early for the airport one morning, they prearranged our taxi and a bagged breakfast for us.

A wonderful place to stay in the heart of Plaka
Pros:

The hotel was in a great location very close to everywhere a first timer would want to go! The roof top has a beautiful view of the Acropolis. The staff is amazing. I actually left my phone in the taxi when I was dropped off and they went above and beyond to help me figure out how to get it back. The breakfast was great and a perfect way to start the day.

Cons:

The only issue and it may just be me is the bed is very firm. I’m sure they might have given me an extra comforter to sleep on top of if o had just asked.
