The hotel is well maintained and the rooms are up-to-date. The staff is energetic, friendly, and courteous. The breakfast is excellent and the dining room has the best view in Athens. Downsides: most rooms don’t have a nice view. The dinner served in the dining room is expensive. The hotel is in the heart of the Plaka tourist district and there almost countless dining options nearby. Would love to stay here again.

Electra Palace was an excellent hotel for first time visit due to close proximity to most areas for shopping, sightseeing, restaurants/bars, etc. The staff and overall service was excellent during our stay. The views from the suites on the 6th floor of the Acropolis was worth the stay just in itself. Will definitely return on a future visit.

The hotel is ideally situated around 10 minutes walk from the Acropolis and 10 minutes walk from the main shopping area. Staff were super helpful in advising and booking tickets for attractions. Hotel was really clean and well equipped with a Spa and outdoor pool - although the latter was closed during our stay.
