The Stanley
Big family room, great roof top bar and pool area - better than those in the city centre. Great breakfast. Only downside was the loud banging and maintenance work being done in the early hours / mornings. Would have been nice to have known this before arriving to see about moving rooms or changing ...

Grand Hyatt Athens
Great launch point hotel for a stay in Athens! Clean, functional, quiet and comfortable. Especially appreciated is the second floor (mezzanine level) welcome area where breakfast and afternoon meal buffets are presented (no fee). Would return.

Astor Hotel Athens
The roof top terrrace is a beautiful place for breakfast and night viewing. The staff were particularly helpful. Coffee at breakfast was the only disappointment.
