Electra Palace Athens

10/10 Excellent

"Location"

NYX Esperia Palace Hotel Athens

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent newer hotel in the heart of Athens, highly recommended! Be loved everything about us stay here, but the breakfast was the highlight. The views from the ninth floor restaurant where breakfast is served are stunning, directly looking at the Acropolis. The food is well presented and yummy, has huge variety, the staff is well trained, efficient and courteous. The places quite close to most of the attractions in Athens, easily walkable to the Plaka, Syntagma square, Monastiraki, Ermou street, etc. We took a taxi to the acropolis, that’s a little further away."

Amalia Hotel Athens

10/10 Excellent

"Perfectly located within walking distance to many tourist attractions, restaurants, and right across the street from the National Gardens. Rooms were clean and well appointed. Breakfast exceeded expectations even though we read many other positive reviews. It's that good! The staff was very attentive and accommodating. Our only experience that wasn't fantastic was dinner at the hotel restaurant; we felt that that the food was only average but at a premium price. We would recommend this hotel to anyone who travels to Athens. "
