Only one or two of the electrical sockets worked in our room. Hair dryer didn't work. Half of the lights didn't work. TV didn't turn on. Shower was super complicated. Breakfast buffet was above average and the lobby of the hotel is nice. Staff were pleasant. Not a terrible location because can easily get a cab to the attractions, or even walk to them if you want some exercise, but the surrounding area is pretty run down and not all that attractive. Not unsafe but just kind of depressing. Would have preferred to stay in the Plaka area, but as a 2 night option in between our international flight and our trip to Crete, it got the job done other than our room issues.

Very nice classy hotel. Great amenitiesand lots of options. 10th floor has a very nice restaurant with a beautiful view of the acropolis, and the entire city center. Prices for drinks and dinner a bit high, but to be expected in a hotel setting. If given the option, (we did) get the breakfast as a prepaid room option, you will not be disappointed.

This hotel had exceptional service and everyine was very professional! Once we called to ask about the times of one of their restaurant hours, they answered that and in additional offered to make a reservation for us. We felt like celebrities for our honeymoon. We had exceptional fresh fish option for one of tge breakfast buffet options. And once they became aware of our honeymoon, they gave us champagne. We would definitely visit again once we go back to Athens in the future.
