Great hotel with a loud night club next door.

The hotel itself is amazing. Comfortable room. Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. The only disadvantage was the next door club with loud music almost each night. If a club music beat is your white noise, you'll be alright. Otherwise you have a problem.

Lovely stay

Lovely service staff and fab location. Breakfast is very good and made to order so it is fresh and delicious. Spa services were phenomenal and can highly recommend the Thai massage for a firm sport style massage. I do want to point out that for anyone who is noise sensitive, the sound insulation is very poor (at least on the 1st floor). You could hear any movement of guests in the hallway through the door as well as street noise. This was difficult in terms of a comfortable sleep. That being said, I would stay again.

Disliked: Room comfort
The hotel is in a fantastic central location, making it easy to access all the major tourist sites. However, we had issues with the air conditioning in our room. When we reported it to reception, we were told that the central heating was on because other guests had complained about the cold (despite the outside temperature being around 18–20°C). Their solution was to advise us to open the window, turn off the aircon unit, and use small fans provided by the hotel. Frustratingly, we discovered on our last night that the aircon had been fixed, but no one informed us. Additionally, the spa service was disappointing and did not meet expectations. On a positive note, breakfast was excellent.

First time in Athens

First of all, the stuff very kind, super nice and helps with everything!. They also help when we need. However, while our stay there were few hot days. Because the season is winter the air conditioner was set to heat and there was no option to change that to cold. we suffer from that and the hotel gave us tiny fans that don't help to much. there wasn't other solution. It was very hot and difficult at the nights. In addition, we don’t like the style of the breakfast. It is like a restaurant with waiters and few dishes and we asked them for everything like water, butter, bread etc. buffet style would be better.

Loud Noise from a Music Club

hotel staff is very friendly, lovely place and it is very clean. Unfortunately I could not sleep till very late AMs,due to the noise outside coming from a club. They play music so loud that I had to put ear plugs but it still did not help me. This was over the weekend.
