Excellent hotel, our first trip to Athens and the hotel made this trip perfect. Hotel was in a great location, a short walk from the main square, easy access to sites, shops and restaurants. Staff were great and very helpful. Hotel rooms and facilities were excellent. Breakfast was 5 star, great selection on the buffet, and the rooftop location gave the perfect view - a fantastic way to start the day. Thank you to all at the Electra Palace.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at Electra Palace. The hotel was beautiful - I don't think the photos do it justice. All of the staff were incredibly welcoming, friendly and attentive. The view of the Acropolis from the restaurant and rooftop pool/bar were spectacular, and if you stay here, you should definitely book dinner in their rooftop restaurant - genuinely one of the best meals I've had! Loved every moment of staying here, and can't wait to come back!

We liked many things about the hotel. Staff are warm and helpful. Beds and linens were nice. Breakfast is very good. Location is very good. The negatives are three, all common issues with older hotels. Limited electric outlets, and none by the bed. Bath/shower is treacherous for older people. Finally, limited counter space.

Very centrally located. The reception area was lovely. The registration was efficient and service was positive. The breakfast area was great…good views and food. Some parts of the hotel (ex: woodwork in the hall to the rooms) was in need of a refresh. The attitude of the people cleaning the rooms could be improved. Overall, I would definitely stay again in the future.
