I was super skeptical at first as the street view on google maps showed an older building. This is a fully renovated hotel and they did not spare any detail in providing a great service and stay for the customers. Breakfast room has amazing views of the acropolis and as did our room too. We recommend this place for quality, convenience and friendly staff.

This hotel looks beautiful in the inside. The rooms are nice and cozy. Small jacuzzi bathtub in room.Breakfast was nice. Check in time is 3:00pm. Don't get there early because they don't have a large cleaning staff. I waited til 3/a FEW hours. Construction going on. Had to keep my window curtains closed because men on a lift kept passing by working on the building. Most of the staff ate friendly. I think theres clubs near by because a traffic jam at 2:30am with horns blowing is crazy. Greece hotels have no microwave to warm up food. And they don't have face rags. Overall it an nice place to stay. I would give it a 7 out of 10.

Not comfortable Rooms
on one hand, excellent service, perfect breakfast,but not comfortable for us: - no place enough to put your staff, too many gadgets on the only table, not enough hangers, even not in the shower, - not enough electric sockets for our personal instruments, chargers, medical devices etc. - one bottle of water only for 3 days... Hi dear manager, this is not a Museum, or a display room, people come to the hotel and pay, a lot of money, and deserve some comfort.

The hotel is cute, clean and convenient. Love the decoration! Staffs were very helpful and polite. We walked only 10 mins to Acropolis, Parthenon and the museum. Our room had Acropolis view. Everything was perfect! Thank you for your service!

It’s new and being well taken care of so far. The room is light and attractive, has a very comfortable bed, and well thought out switches. Nice bathrooms. Excellent rooftop dining room with great views of Athens. The hotel is in easy walking distance to Syntagma Square, the Plaka, Acropolis and many sites, and also convenient to good public transport if not in the mood to walk.

Fantastic hotel and great location! The room was huge with giant windows overlooking the city. There was a swing hanging from the ceiling to boot! The breakfast was the best we've ever had at a hotel. You should stay here if you can!

This property is a perfect location for enjoying all the sites of Athens. Easy walk to Plaka, Lycebetta hill, the Acropolis, the hop off hop on bus lines, the metro and the busline. The team here sets the bar high with their attentiveness, helpfulness and friendliness. We appreciated the smiles! The rooftop restaurant was amazing and while a little pricey for dinner it was wonderful. Breakfast here had everything you could imagine and was a great start to our day. The room was a bit small. It could have used another surface/shelf to set things out on. We were not sure about the round bed but it worked. Having the minibar included was so nice. We did have to ask for a replenishment. Housekeeping was thorough and friendly. We appreciated coming back to a clean room after a long day of sightseeing. Not much we did not like.
