Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, though a bit small, were still nice and clean, and the ventilation system was not bothersome. The bathroom was smaller than expected, making sitting on the toilet and moving around a bit challenging, and the shower door opened only halfway. Nonetheless, the rooms were cozy and comfortable.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, near the vibrant Plaka area with easy access to great eateries. The rooms, although a bit small, were clean and welcoming. The service was top-notch, with incredibly friendly and accommodating staff. The dining experience was a highlight with a superb buffet overlooking the Acropolis. The facilities were impressive, especially the rooftop bar and the breakfast spread. The only downside was the slightly dated look of the rooms, but overall, the value for money was excellent.

The hotel is clean and quite, but the family room was very small for myself and my 16 and 19-year-old daughters. The service was exceptional with engaging and committed staff, although a bit disorganized at times. The location is excellent with a magnificent view of the Acropolis, near shops, restaurants, and the metro station. The dining experience was great with delicious Greek food but served only from 7 am, which may not suit early birds.
