Pros:

The location is superb, the staff are very attentive and helpful. The residential suite where we stayed was spacious, with a large balcony - all as expected.

Cons:

The facilities start showing their age - water in the shower did not drain as fast as the showerhead supplied it. The lights on the balcony did not work - or we could not figure out how to turn them on. The "a la carte breakfast" is mediocre.

I can’t imagine a better place to stay while in Athens! The location is so close to most things you want to do while in
Pros:

Very modern and the room was well appointed. Nespresso coffee in room. Larger safe than most hotels. 24 hour staff that went out of their way to make sure your stay was enjoyable. Included breakfast was excellent. Their evening tasting menu was a great dining experience. I will definitely stay at this property again!

Cons:

Small item that they could use is a do not disturb for the door when you want privacy during cleaning times.

Absolutely wonderful— best Athens stay!
Pros:

Incredibly helpful staff, let us check in earlier and gave us complimentary breakfast. Perfect location, within walking distance of everything. Rooms were so comfortable. Really top notch customer service!

Cons:

Room service menu could have had more options, and it was a little loud as we were facing the street, but not too much of a problem.

Bella scoperta nel cuore di Atene
Pros:

Struttura pulita e moderna, in posizione ottima. Lo staff è competente e sempre disponibile. La colazione è molto buona fatta da prodotti di alta qualità.

Cons:

La stanza affaccia su un cortile interno non propriamente scenografico. Lo sport corner è scarsamente attrezzato.

Impeccably located hotel that satisfies all the senses
Pros:

Absolutely amazing location. On a pedestrian promenade, south entrance to the Acropolis across the street, the Acropolis Museum practically next door. My room (Hellenic Suite with Acropolis View) was very spacious and very well appointed, with an incredible terrace overlooking the Acropolis. Great breakfast every day.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing to dislike.
