Great location in Plaka, just a few blocks from Plaka restaurants and Acropolis in one direction, Syntagma Metro stop in other direction. Helpful staff. Comfy beds. Decent breakfast buffet. Property is a bit dated. Hotel next-door has great rooftop restaurant/bar with a terrific acropolis view.

Not a lot of details, sorry...just a very pleasant stay. Location in the Plaka; we walked all over Athens. Room was clean and efficient. Very quiet area. View from the rooftop of the Parthenon. My favorite thing was staff was very helpful. The day before checkout they were making sure we would get breakfast before we left.

Had a nice day here for one night in town before a ferry to an island! Had a nice balcony and comfortable beds. We arrived earlier than our check-in and we were able to store our luggage there throughout the day, which was very convenient. Great little neighborhood and very walkable to restaurants and shopping. Also, very walkable to the acropolis and other attractions.

Good over all

The location is convenient, and the staff was friendly. Their bathroom needs some update. The shower head did not work very well and there was no plug for the tub.
