We loved this hotel. The extras you get at this hotel were amazing (toothbrushes, shaving kits, slippers, and Luffa’s all to take with you) Location was perfect walkable to Acropolis. Staff were friendly and helpful. Hotel restaurant was not open yet, so we had breakfast at the restaurant a few doors down it was delicious!

Loved the staff (Virginia, Matina,Nora). Helpful with all things Athens. Room comfy, shower fantastic. Great breakfast.
Deborah, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I highly recommend this property. It is modern, recently built/renovated with excellent views of the Acropolis and in the heart of the Plaka. Everything is walkable with dozens of little streets full of shopping, bars, cafes, etc. right when you walk out of the door. The staff was lovely as well. If I go back to Athens, this is exactly where I will stay.

It was beautiful from the moment we walked in; our room was exquisitely appointed and very new. The people at the front desk couldn’t have been nicer. They went out of their way to help us. The free breakfast was truly a gourmet experience.

Very Nice Hotel

The hotel is a cute, boutique style hotel. Nice and clean, hotel staff is extremely nice and helpful. It has amazing views of the Acropolis. The only downside would be the construction next door. It is very loud early in the morning. The showers also splash water out on the floor. I would recommend this hotel as long as the noise doesn’t bother you.
Vickie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wow. Great hotel. great view of acropolis. And no I understand why all the reviews talk about the staff. Truly one of the nicest and polite staff in many countries i have been to. Especially Greece. New hotel so bedding and everything super clean and works well. The breakfast place was super cute and with fresh food

Between the hotel manager asking me to cancel my Expedia reservation and paying direct to remove commission, terrible air conditioning, and small rooms it was fine
