Great location! Staff was attentive and friendly. Room rate included the breakfast which was awesome; rooftop location with a Parthenon view, great food and friendly staff.
In a prime location, the room was clean and the decor was beautiful. The staff was attentive and the breakfast and lunch were phenomenal. The only downside was the dinner at Sense was disappointing. If you are visiting Athens- this is the hotel you need to stay at!
The location was ideal for walking around Athens. The property has amazing staff who are professional, friendly and caring. The breakfast was excellent - the staff even packed us a to go breakfast for an early morning flight. We will definitely stay again.
Great little boutique hotel. Nice amenities in the room. Loved the bottle of wine and the complimentary breakfast. Staff was very helpful in organizing my transport to and from the airport.
Checking in after traveling for 14 hours, all I wanted to do was go to the rooftop Restaraunt/bar, have a drink and look at the sites. I was advised it was closed due to a bridal shower, but could order room service which I chose as I was too tired to go out. Wanting to make a reservation for the rooftop Restaraunt, I was provided a menu that had two 8-course set meals staring at $100 euros. I simply wanted a nice dinner, glass of wine and again, enjoy the views. But did not want to spend $100+ euros on a simple meal. That’s a deal-breaker for many travelers. I won’t be suggesting or staying there again.
Well my wife and I ware overjoyed when we saw the property. First it’s a boutique hotel. Room, bathroom were perfect. The Terrace was the big hit. Big and a beautiful view of the acropolis and overlooking the Main Street. Every staff that we encountered or if we needed assistance was very accommodating. Breakfast was very good. The big plus of this place was the location. Right in the center to all the main attractions and the shops and restaurants. The area is the Plaka district. Excellent. If we ever go back to Athens. We will definitely stay here again.
