My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spotless, a bit on the small side, but still very comfortable. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, and the scrambled eggs were amazing. The hotel's rooftop restaurant and bar with views of the Parthenon were stylish and added to the experience.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were lovely and cool after busy sightseeing days, the shower room felt luxurious, and the bed was incredibly comfy. However, I wish the restaurant downstairs stayed open later. Overall, a modern and spacious room with a super comfortable bed and a gorgeous bathroom. It was a bit dimly lit at times.

I felt very welcomed and cared for during my stay at the hotel. The rooms were cozy, but the noise from the street was a bit of a drawback. The location is perfect for exploring key attractions, but there were some minor inconveniences with access. Service was exceptional, and the dining experience was delightful, although with limited choices. Overall, a good value for money option with a few hiccups.

The hotel offers modern and comfortable rooms with all the necessary amenities, but overlooks a noisy and dirty courtyard full of air conditioning compressors.

My stay at the hotel was a delightful experience. The rooms were lovely and cool after busy days of sightseeing, comfortable, and even had balconies and superb bathrooms, although it did get very hot at times. The service was exceptional, with friendly and attentive staff; however, a day trip recommendation turned out to be expensive, uncomfortable, and poorly organized. The location was perfect for exploring Athens, being close to all the main attractions. The dining experience was fantastic with breathtaking views of the Acropolis, offering traditional and exceptionally good food. Overall, a great value for money stay with fantastic amenities and exceptional service.

I couldn't be happier with this hotel! The rooms were quiet, had a nice balcony, and I could even sleep with the french doors wide open. It's a shame there were no tea or coffee-making facilities in the small kitchenette space; however, the tranquility made up for it. The service was top-notch, with the staff arranging a wonderful tour for us and being incredibly friendly and accommodating. The location is unbeatable, just a stone's throw away from the Acropolis and Plaka, making sightseeing a breeze. The dining experience was mouth-watering, with beautifully presented and delicious dishes. I wish the facilities were a bit more extensive, but overall, it was a fantastic stay.
