The perfect spot!
A wonderful hotel 3 minutes from two different subway stations. They were in the middle of renovation whe we stayed (January) but the restaurant, bar, and pool were all top notch. The staff were amazing and very well informed about the sights around Athens. I feel like we got our own customised tour guide! Our rooms had a view of the Acropolis, and the rooftop patio had an even better one! Definitely a gem and a bargin!

Overall not good
Hotel is going through some renovation and for 3 out of 4 days there have been horrible construction noises that didn’t allow us to rest and enjoy our time. Windows are not soundproof and hotel is located near by busy road, so sleeping was possible only with earplugs.

This building is not sound proof and one can hear noises from outside, near by balconies upper floors etc. It also has a very strong embedded smoke smell in the rooms. It’s awful!

Good hotel in general in the middle of Athens, very close to the metro and most of the staff are very good and helpful. The rooftop pool is amazing although it is a small one and the cafe/bar has an amazing view of the acropolis. The area is not very safe, just stay near the main road and you will be fine.

The hotel had a nice view of the Acropolis from its roof top. The pool was essentially a large bath tub but the water was clean. Proximity to transit and coffee shops and restaurants is a big plus. The room we had faced the road and was extremely noisy. traffic noise disturbed us constantly. The staff was co-operative. No English channels on T.V. But generally a good enough experience.
