The property is located in a great location about a 15 min walk to the Akropolis, and about 10 min to the Metro 3 to the airport. The rooms are tiny, as is the bathroom, but the shower was modern with good water flow from the top as well as a side spray. We had a very enjoyable dinner at a restaurant just around the corner. Breakfast at the rooftop is a definite highlight as you see the Akropolis. Since we weren't planning on spending a lot of time in the hotel, it didn't matter to us that the room was so tiny. The receptionists were very friendly and helpful. There is a tiny (2 person) elevator that was working well and helpful since my husband had sprained his ankle a few days earlier. About 10 yards from the hotel entrance is a small Maria Callas (the opera singer) museum that we very much enjoyed . The Parliament (the changing of the guards every hour) and the National gardens (free) are about a ten minute walk and also a nice place to walk around. The hotel is about a two star, but because of location and rooftop breakfast and cleanliness I would definitely consider staying there again, especially if it is just one or two nights.

This property has such an amazing rooftop view with the church and the Acropolis, it makes this place worth it! The property is older, but the view and location can't be beat. You walk through the Plaka neighborhood to get to the Acropolis, and it's a beautiful area. Walkable from the Syntagma subway stop in the business district. Walkable to the Monastriki neighborhood, which is NOT a lovely area because of all the graffiti. A walking shopping/ eating street is 2 blocks away, but i would recommend the atmosphere of the restaurants in Plaka. Front desk is on property 24/7 and wonderfully friendly and helpful. Helped us get a cab for 4 am. I highly recommend if they are available!

We would never stay at this property again or recommend. The older gentleman at the desk was rude. The hotel rooms are so tiny you can barely walk around the bed to get to the other side. There is NO room for luggage. The shower is super tight and water sprays all over the bathroom floor. It is extremely noisy ALL the time. The church bells are lovely to hear but not every 30 minutes. And the traffic noise is extremely loud.

Location was amazing- thats what you pay for at this place! Room wasnt very clean, heaps of dust on skirtings, bathroom has no window and it smells very damp/ moisture. But for one night we managed- view was unmatched and everything was so close, bars restaurants buses. Staff were friendly. Lift is very very small, so if youre a big person or travelling with alot. Not very suitable.

Great hotel for a budget hotel which is a short walk from everything. There are stairs to get to the lift. Does not suit people who cannot do any stairs. Bathroom is tiny but meets needs. Does have some noise from shopping area at night but you are in the heart of Plaka. If you want something cheap for a couple nights near every thing this is great. If you want some luxury and no stairs then this will not suit you.
