The location was perfect for someone staying in Athens, especially for the first time. Everything was close, shopping, dining, museums, ruins, etc. etc. Could not ask for a better location. The hotel staff were very helpful. The food was good. The bar both in the lobby and the rooftop bar were very good. The pool was a wonderful place to get away from the heat and relax.

Sub-standard stay in Athens

Rooftop bar and restaurant was the best part but still only adequate service and quality. Views were exceptional; however, hotel is very tired. TV, lighting, curtains were not functional. Nearly slipped and broke my neck in the shower. Very slippery. Would not go back or recommend.

This hotel Iris well located!!! Breakfast buffet is nice. It’s basic buffet! View of acropolis is epic!!!! Staff is okay. Not great or bad. They are okay. Room was bad. Ac barely worked and Ants crawled out of a tear in carpet and were like 100s!!!!! Ugh! Athens is HOT so no ac is bad! Their ac is bad! I’d never return bc our room felt like 90 degrees! I don’t recommend! I do recommend going there and having drinks on rooftop! Food is overpriced and basic. And shower was super small! Don’t come here! But come for drinks! View is Epic!
