Incredibly well located. Center of everything! Staff is very friendly and helpful. We were only there for two nights, but enjoyed our location, our view of the Acropolis, and the staff. The rooftop bar was under construction when we went and didn’t know until we arrived. So that was a bummer, but we were allowed to use their sister property with a great view as well. Just not as convenient, but it was really only across the street so very close. We would stay there again.

The room had an amazing view of the Acropolis and of Monastiraki Square. It’s very central to all the main locations and easy to move around from the hotel. The room was also very clean, well lit and had drinks. We visited for our anniversary and were greeted with a nice gift from the hotel. The hotel staff were very friendly, nice and helpful. Strongly recommend.

Location excellent. Staff excellent. Room excellent. AC stunning. No real complaints other than the TV only has Greek television not a smart TV so if you are trying to stream Netflix etc during down time you’ll have to use your phone. And the wifi is a little spotty at times. Other than that it’s a lovely hotel and would stay again. Can’t beat the views/location to acropolis

As a first timer in Athens I was honestly taken aback when pulling up, do to the graffiti etc. but don’t let that deter you. It’s in great location to many restaurants and shops. We even walked to the acropolis from the hotel. It was a hard walk for me but easy for the ppl I was with. The hotel itself is small. The elevator can only fit two people with no luggage. My only real complaint was how thin the doors are. You can hear everything. The hotel was clean. Staff nice
