Excellent location, easy walk to the Acropolis entry point. Botanic gardens and the Panatheon not far either. Lots of places to eat nearby, mixed in amongst some local shops. Area felt safe. Staff were nice and very helpful in booking a taxi to the airport for a fixed charge of 40€. Room was compact but was ok, typical of Europe.

The view from the hotel room of the Acropolis was amazing, but the room was extremely small and was not big enough for two people with 4 pieces of luggage. It was difficult to even move in the bathroom. Room was on the 6th floor and a private party was going on until 1 am on the rooftop terrace right above the room which was extremely loud. Also no access to the rooftop restaurant because of such party which is a highlight of booking the hotel in the first place as we were only staying one night. Additionally, at one point we had to wait in the lobby for 30 minutes before we could get into the elevator to go to our room since the people from the private party were taking turns to use the elevator to get to 7th floor due to small elevator size. Some good things are complimentary water bottles and small fridge, hotel view of the Acropolis, hotel location, and free late check out. The free late checkout was much appreciated and staff was nice about accommodating. Also, free breakfast was nice.

The property is central to great shopping, restaurants and next to the Plaka. Wonderful view of the Acropolis at sunset from the roof top restaurant- the food was delicious and priced accordingly. Would definitely stay again We had a room facing the back, rooms are small but clean. Only negative is the bathroom door is a glass shower door, kind of weird.Breakfast buffet has lots of choices, and great coffee choices 😊

Great location, Terrace Restaurant has one of the best views in the city of the Acropolis. My only gripe is the smell of wet in the bathroom.
