Great rooftop restaurant

We were just here overnight before our flight back home. We went straight to the rooftop restaurant for dinner, and in addition to outstanding food and wine, there was a lovely view of the Acropolis, and on the building next to the hotel, they showed old movies! The wait staff were very friendly and knowledgeable, and recommended an excellent wine with our dinner.

Movie Magic From the Roof

We had an issue with getting into our room due to a broken, glass door. The hotel comped us drinks as a result. We loved the rooftop bar. A highlight from the bar was watching a silent, black-and-white movie projected on a building across the street, with a view of Acropolis Hill lit up in the distance. It was lovely! Unfortunately the movie projector was not working the second night, so we were not able to repeat the experience. The staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Excellent hotel with very helpful and joyful staff. They are all willing to help you with everything. One of the most heartwarming staff I’ve ever seen in Athens and I’ve stayed at more than 5 hotels in Athens already. Received complimentary wine bottle for free as well.

Spacious and clean rooms. Has a small elevator which makes it easy to haul your luggage. Great location , walkable to major tourist sites in Athens. Plenty of restaurants within the block. Bonus that there is a parking lot right infront of the hotel, about 20 Euros per day. Breakfast is delish. They give you a breadbasket, fruit bowl and a choice of drink ( coffee, tea) and cook to order menu. They yogurt and pancakes were my fave! Highly recommend this hotel.
