The panorama view room was amazing - Parthenon, Temple of Zeus, and Hadrian's Arch with a 6x2 meter window and balcony. Excellent location for a morning timed-entry to the Acropolis, an easy 15 minute walk to the gate. The staff very cordial and pleasant. Graciously fixing a table for us upon a early arrival just to have a coffee at the rooftop restaurant. Possibly the most generous and thoughtful people in the world.

A nice hotel in a perfect location. Staff are excellent. Clean modest rooms . Upper lounge, breakfast area and restaurant with exceptional views and super nice and efficient staff. Rooms though clean and efficient have no coffee maker and though nice towels and an amazing pool it all seems from the early 2000's. But pricing is good and if you don't need super modern then an exceptional value

This is an absolutely beautiful hotel in an excellent location with an extremely attentive staff. The views from the rooftop of the Acropolis and Zeus’s massive temple are unparalleled! The chef here is very creative and everything I ate was delicious! The pool was no less luxurious. The slight negative I had was that were not any usb or c outlets and not enough sockets. Some lamps were taped and hardwired directly to the wall with no socket covers. The room was dated. Not better than a Marriott courtyard or Hilton Hampton. I hope they improve this. I didn’t come to Athens to sleep so I would definitely come back! I give it 4/5 stars. Reasonably priced.

This is a great hotel i n a good location. I would have loved to give it a 5 star rating because the restaurant and bar was nice with terrific views. However, the suite we had was beautiful but only had 3 three electric outlets in the entire room none in the bathroom and none beside the bed despite having control of lights and shades in the room built into the nightstand. Once you turn off the lights the 3 electric outlets went dead so impossible to charge phones and other items overnight. The other missing thing includes no USB charging and no coffee station no ironing board and no where for a lady to use makeup and hairdryer. This sounds a bit silly but this hotel and the cost of a suite per night Misses out against any other hotels in this day and age.

Hotel is very well situated with easy access for exploring Athens. Rooftop restaurant has a beautiful view of the Acropolis. Many tour groups use the hotel which makes mornings and afternoons very busy in the lobby, and in the restaurant for breakfast before 8. The decor is dated and very traditional, but the bed was comfortable even if the pillows were thin and should be replaced.
