This could easily be excellent vs good. Location is outstanding, hotel is very clean and staff is very friendly and eager to serve. I rated good and not excellent because there is no baggage service before 11 am, and it’s very dangerous to haul luggage down the spiral winding stairs, especially with no rails. If your room is in the Residence, you’re on your own if you have an early departure.

Great stay with little tweaks to improve

Our stay was good, great location and housekeeping did a great job each day. Think check around mobility is required as we were on a second floor with only stairs which could cause other guests issues. Also a mirror above the dressing table would be useful for doing hair and make up as full length mirror doesnt have a power point near it.

Amazing, chic, central hotel

Had an amazing stay at the The Residence, the staff were more than helpful and couldn’t do enough for you, can’t praise them enough. Location is superb, rich in the heart of Monistiraki and easy walking to all the main attractions. The room was also great, very clean, great facilities and even had a view of the Acropolis! Would definitely recommend and looking forward to our next stay.

Athens March 2025

It was a really nice hotel, clean and tidy, with a large room big enough for 3 people. The breakfast included both hot and cold options. The biggest issue was finding somewhere safe to park. You need to plan this before arriving, so you don’t waste ages in downtown traffic!
