Great!
The Plaka location was perfect. The modern decor was appealing. The room was comfortable and the view to the Acropolis from it as well as the patio restaurant was amazing. The complimentary breakfast was delicious. I would stay there again. The nightly rate was reasonable.

The front desk was very friendly and helpful. The room was nice and clean. Great location. Walkable distance from food and shopping. Large spread of food for breakfast. Our room was right by a school and was a bit noisy early in the morning and during the day but wasn’t a problem for us.

From the moment I arrived the staff were so lovely and helpful, their rooftop restaurant was exceptional with the view looking up to the acropolis. The location was excellent to walk all around the various surrounding areas.
There was also a tiny, restaurant on the other side of the road which was such a memorable, authentic and tasty dinner option.
My bedroom was smallish but perfect for a solo traveller, and had the view of the acropolis as well.
Very happy with my stay and would recommend.

Very nice hotel. Grateful that hotel saved an underground parking spot for me, as there is no parking in Athens. Very central to many of the sites and areas of Athens you would want to see.

Always stay here when I’m in Athens. Has had an overdue revamp which is great. Roof top bar and restaurant just amazing with the incredible Parthenon view. Walking distance to wherever you want to go. The staff are just the most friendliest and nothing is too much for them to make your stay enjoyable.

It is a conveniently located hotel, close to Plaka and Monastiraki . The view of the Acropolis from the hotel was superb. The area around the hotel is dirty, full of graffiti, empty storefronts and feels unsafe and unkept. Of course it's not the Hotel's fault but it affects the overall experience.
