Located in the heart of Athens, we were able to walk to every destination we wished to see. We started the day with the most wonderful breakfast with even better view. Our room was filled with thoughtful amenities like a steamer for our clothes. All the staff were friendly and attentive. Be sure to also make a reservation for dinner at the roof top restaurant. It was the perfect setting after a long day of travel with delicious food and cocktails all while watching the sunset behind the Acropolis.

We had an absolutely lovely stay at the Electra Palace in Athens. The hotel is conveniently located in the centre of the Plaka neighborhood, close to many shops and restaurants. The acropolis is an easy 15 minute walk. We had both breakfast and dinner at the 8th floor restaurant which has a beautiful view of the acropolis and city of Athens. The food was incredible. The room was well kept and comfortable. The staff were very helpful making recommendations and booking our taxi. An amazing stay!
