The location and the breakfast was great. The hotel standard was what you can expect at this price range. The staff pretty much ignored us and was more interested in socialising with each other than tending to the guests.

This hotel scams people. The whole business is a scam. They overbook and then send some people to another hotel in the ghetto. Do not book this hotel.

Lovely hotel in a superb location. Many of the sites of central Athens are within easy walking distance and it’s also well served by public transport. Despite being so well located, the hotel is in a less bustling, pedestrianised area, so it is peaceful at night. The staff were also really polite and helpful and the breakfast is good with a nice selection of Greek specialties.

I wouldn't recommend this hotel
When we arrived to the hotel for the check in, they charged my card and after that they proceeded to tell me they were having problems to give us the room so they were going to send us to a different hotel in a very bad area. I told them they should have warned me before charging my card. They denied to reimburse me the money so I walked away with a loss from their hotel. I will escalate this to the Greek National Tourism Organisation (GNTO), no doubt.

The position of the hotel was perfect for walking to all the places we wanted to see.
It was only a few minutes walk from the Acropolis one way up the walkway and a few minutes walk from the bustling restaursnts the other way but lovely and quiet in the evenings.
The room was comfortable and cool with everything in it we needed.
The welcome we received was exceptional Grace in partcular on the reception desk, so very warm and friendly.
I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone and we will be coming back!

I was taking an early morning cruise and was going to miss breakfast. They kindly packed a to-go one for me and was waiting at the front desk at 6 am when I departed. So considerate. They were also very generous with tourist information. Would stay here again.
