The room had an amazing view of the Acropolis and of Monastiraki Square. It’s very central to all the main locations and easy to move around from the hotel. The room was also very clean, well lit and had drinks. We visited for our anniversary and were greeted with a nice gift from the hotel. The hotel staff were very friendly, nice and helpful. Strongly recommend.

Location excellent. Staff excellent. Room excellent. AC stunning. No real complaints other than the TV only has Greek television not a smart TV so if you are trying to stream Netflix etc during down time you’ll have to use your phone. And the wifi is a little spotty at times. Other than that it’s a lovely hotel and would stay again. Can’t beat the views/location to acropolis

Liked: Staff & service
To be honest, the staff were very friendly and attentive to our needs. However, the hotel failed to disclose the fact that their rooftop restaurant was closed for renovations. That was the main reason, along with the location for choosing this hotel. We were offerred a short walk to a nearby property for breakfast. This was a major inconvenience! Also, the small coffee machine in the room was inadequate for our needs. That being said, location was amazing and the staff were really attentive to our needs and helpful.

I found the current 3-star rating to be a fair reflection of the property—nothing significantly better or worse than expected. The highlight of my stay was undoubtedly the room's spectacular view of the Acropolis. Waking up to such an iconic landmark was a memorable experience. The staff were also friendly, professional, and very helpful throughout my stay. That said, there were a few disappointments. Although breakfast was included, guests are required to walk to a nearby sister hotel to have it, which was inconvenient. In addition, the rooftop restaurant was closed during my visit, despite being one of the hotel's most prominently advertised features. The hotel's location also presents some practical challenges. The entrance is tucked away on a narrow side street, so taxis cannot easily stop directly in front of the property. After being dropped off on the busy main road, we had to carry our luggage through pedestrian and vehicle traffic to reach the hotel. The exterior of the building is also quite modest and less appealing than the photos might suggest. Overall, I would recommend A for Athens to travelers whose top priority is enjoying an excellent view of the Acropolis and staying in a central location. For those seeking a more polished hotel experience or extensive on-site amenities, it may be worth considering other options.

Location of this hotel is amazing. We were given a front suite that had an amazing view of the Acropolis. However, with this hotel comes a lot of noise, as it is in a very crowded area with many locals and tourists enjoying themselves at all hours. The roof top bar and restaurant are very nice and have amazing views for the sunset and any time viewing!
