Breakfasy was great! The cleanliness of the rooms and entire property is what needs special commendation. The room and hotel was spotless. And I am pretty picky. The staff spoke good English and was very friendly.

There were two issues. One the bed was as hard as a rock and we had to have them bring a foam topper. Two we had no outlets in the room open to use none in the bathroom for a straightener or curing iron and none in the room. You would need to unplug a light to use the outlet. We went to the front desk to inquire about the need for an outlet and the staff was very rude about it. They sent maintenance with a multi adapter bar to plug in to the light outlet. The hotel itself was beautiful, great location, great breakfast and fantastic view.

Clean room, good staff, excellent location, large property, reasonable price. Bed and room temperature were very comfortable. Breakfast selection was bland and substandard compared to comparable hotels. Decor is dated. Wifi and signal reception was poor and problematic. Need a big upgrade from the 80s decor at some point and stronger signal.

So breakfast was great. Jim is not usable and very minimal. It will help to have a nice gym in a smaller one on the property. Also, there was no coffee option in the room. We want to make tea in the middle of the night. A coffee maker is a must.

The location near tourist sites can’t be better. Hotel is upscale though rooms sizes and conditions vary between visits depending on booking rates. The room pictures may not be what you’ll get. Rooftop restaurant and breakfast are nice.

This classy hotel is gorgeous - and just steps away from the main tourist spots in the city center of Athens. It’s also an ideal choice if you’re running the Athens Marathon, just about a half-mile walk from the Olympic stadium at the finish line.
