The perfect place to end our stay in Greece. Even just for one night. The team looked after our group with care and their service went above and beyond expectations. The Rooftop team were exceptional! Such incredible food and beverage service and the dishes rivalled the view of the acropolis for sure.

Would like to take this opportunity to recommend Pláka Hotel because of the staff making our stay in Athens more comfortable and convenient. Big shoutout to Andreas in the lobby who was super kind in helping us retrieve something we forgot at an airport in another Greek island. Hotel could use a little update with their facilities but the helpful staff makes up for it. The view from the rooftop is also a huge reason to stay.
