This hotel was a great find! It was a couple minute walk from Sytagma square metro stop, and on a pedestrian only shopping street. In the heart of everything! Enjoyed breakfast outside on the roof with a view of the city and Acropolis! Enjoyed as well after dinner drinks up there. People were very friendly and helpful with dining questions. Highly recomended!

We loved the location and surroundings. The staff was very good. The room size was adequate. We had asked well in advance for twin beds, but we’re not accommodated. The bathroom was pretty poor. Molded at shower floor, shower leaked onto floor and toilet was too close to shower wall for proper sitting for us average size people.
