MiraMe was a pleasant surprise. The staff were wonderful, friendly and ever so helpful. When we arrived we were concerned to see the building next door under construction/renovation but turned out not to be a problem at all. We found our room to be very quiet, peaceful and had all we needed. Due to our plans changing we were not able to take advantage of the rooftop bar or restaurant but we did go up there to sample the anazing view of the Acropolis. The area in general was a big surprise, only a few minutes walk to Thisio metro station, the Ancient Agora, the Monastriaki flea market and countless great eating options with views overlooking the Agora. On the streets behind the hotel there are numerous restaurant options with a great vibe. The hotel is an easy short walk to many top locations in Athens. I highly recommend staying at MiraMe

The property is in a great location and the hotel is very nice- total boutique. The advertised room type said partial sea view- this was not true unfortunately. It faced tons of trees with no view of the bay or Mediterranean. We also were celebrating a special occasion and made the team aware in my original booking and multiple communications leading up to arrival. We didn’t get any awareness or any amenities for our special time. Finally we were supposed to get a welcome drink as part of our booking - that didn’t happen either. But again location was great, made-to-order breakfast was very good, staff was nice - just know very boutique hotel with only 11 rooms. If you don’t get the top floor presidential you probably won’t have any view of ocean - full or partial :(

"They need to renovate all floors below floor 6. It is very deceiving especially if you have booked a sea view room and you are in a room below floor 6. All the rooms on these floors are very outdated! even the foyers on each floor. Both parts to the hotel from floor 1-6 and above are completely different. ..."
