The hotel itself looked very nice on the photos while booking. The location itself put us off a bit due to the neighbourhood looking unsafe and abandoned. The breakfast sessions were a chaos. Connectivity was alright.

The buildings around the hotel are very run down and when the taxi driver dropped us, he warned us to keep our belongings out of sight and not come back too late. There were a lot of “men” on the streets around the hotel. I was glad I was with my husband as I wouldn’t have felt safe travelling with other women there. After the initial disappointment that the pool and roof top restaurant/ bar were closed as out of season, and that our room did not have the desired view of the acropolis as advertised, we actually enjoyed our stay. The room was comfortable and clean.

Fab hotel with the kindest staff. Whilst the surrounding area was run down, we never felt unsafe. Fab cafe next door and 8 mins walk to the metro for a quick journey to the city centre. We return again.

On balance not bad..but not amazing.

Excellent breakfast variety. Service lacking urgency/focus to please but could be a cultural difference. No swimming pool functioning in hotel ( why we chose it) and not explained anywhere until we arrived and sked to use pool. Gym is just one machine and some weights.

The staff was friendly, the rooms were clean and spacious, the rooftop offered a spectacular view of Athens and the breakfast buffet was plentiful. We were only there for a night before a cruise and wish we had longer. Will stay here for sure if we visit Athens again.

I stayed at this property for 13 days. The neighborhood is safe during the day to walk, but at night is unsafe. Best to use taxi’s for getting to tourist spots in Athens. The facility, staff, food, and rooms were spectacular. I really enjoyed my vacation here. The staff at this hotel are the kindest and most service oriented professionals that I have ever experienced. If you are looking for an authentic experience of daily Athenian life this hotel is for you. If you are looking for a manicured resort experience this may not be a good option for you. But for seasoned travelers this is a wonderful place to hang your hat and rest after exploring the sites of Athens.
