Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel's rooms were clean but narrow, lacking storage space and with tired mattresses. The service was exceptional, exceeding expectations with helpful recommendations and efficient check-in and check-out. The location was central, within walking distance to many attractions, despite a slightly seedy area nearby. The dining experience offered a lovely variety of foods, though not a massive spread. Overall, the hotel provided good value for money.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were small and not insulated well, so noise from the street was a constant issue. However, the rooms had their own temperature control, which was a plus. The staff were tremendous and very helpful throughout my stay, making it more pleasant.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with a good bathroom, though not very spacious. The service is exceptional with friendly staff and high-end bathroom care products. The location is excellent for exploring main sights like Plaka and Akropolis on foot. The dining experience is satisfying with great variation and fresh orange juice. However, the neighborhood is in transition and can be slightly seedy.
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a staff that is very helpful. The location is superb for exploring Athens, but the dining experience lacked variety. The facilities are well-maintained and efficient, making it a good value for money choice.
The hotel rooms were okay-ish with some flimsy elements, not quite up to 4-star standards, but they were clean, tidy, and surprisingly spacious with great views. The free big bottle of water left daily was a nice touch, though improvements can be made considering the price. The service was always available and particularly helpful, with fantastic options like room service, car hire, and housekeeping for a truly convenient stay. The location was decent, being close to the metro station Omonia and a walk away from Syntagma, but the area itself was a bit lacking in charm and amenities, with nothing significant nearby. The dining experience offered a solid mix of Greek and international dishes, with a good variety and local specialties, enhancing the stay. The facilities were sufficient for my needs, meeting basic expectations for a comfortable stay.
Although the rooms were small and the bed quality wasn't the best, the hotel offered a clean environment with a view over Acropolis, which is something I truly appreciate being a non-smoker from the USA accustomed to clean air. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to assist with last-minute travel arrangements and recommendations for day trips. The location was quite convenient, close to historical sites and with easy access to transportation options. The dining experience, though not extensive, worked well for our group, especially with interconnecting rooms for teenagers.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were small and not quite big enough for two people with two large suitcases, but they were well-appointed and very comfortable. The staff were really friendly and very helpful, providing tips on local restaurants and arranging taxi services, though there was a minor issue where a receptionist couldn't assist me. The location was close to tourist attractions but had some abandoned buildings nearby. The dining options were okay but somewhat limited in choice. Overall, it was a stay with some highs and lows.
The hotel offers stunning views of the Acropolis from the rooms, but they are on the small side for two people. The included breakfast can be a tad pricey, especially being charged for a second cup of coffee at 22 euros. The service is top-notch with helpful and smiling staff always ready to assist. The location is conveniently situated for walking to most attractions and close to the Omonia metro station. The dining experience provides a satisfying mix of Greek and international cuisine but can get crowded during peak times.
The hotel is conveniently located in the city center, making it easy to access all the main sightseeing spots, the metro, and restaurants and shops. While the room was a bit noisy and on the smaller side, it was not quite big enough for two people with two large suitcases, presenting a minor inconvenience.
I had an amazing stay at the hotel! The rooftop pool and atmosphere were fantastic, and the sunset looking over Athens was superb. The rooms were very clean, tidy, and big with great views. It was perfect having two adjoining rooms to tuck the kids away in one and enjoy some peace in the other. The only downside was that the room was a bit small for 'chilling,' which is important for young teens.
