Great hotel at a very good location! The hotel is located close to the acropolis with a great unobstructed view from the restaurant at the top floor. The street near the hotel is filled with great restaurants and cafes, and with a short walk to the streets of the old city and 15 minutes walk to the city center. The room was very clean and offered blinds that block light completely. The bathroom is modern with a very good rain shower head. The breakfast was truly exceptional - it is a la carte without a buffet. The food was exceptional and the staff super friendly.
