Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
A small hotel located in a quiet street very near the Plaka. Check in was easy and staff was very accommodating. Rooms are on the small side, but they were comfortable and the air conditioning worked really well. I thought the breakfast buffet was wonderful with a nice variety including eggs, bacon, sausage, pastries, yogurt, deli meats, croissants etc. Hotel allowed us to store luggage after check out before we had to transfer to Piraeus for our cruise.

This hotel was really beautiful in design, cleanliness, and an incredible location right near the main Plaka in Athens. It was fantastic for all of those things. That being said, the staff at the front desk both when we checked in and departed were really unpleasant and, as a result, unprofessional. It was as if we were bothering them. The facility itself is perfect but they need to work with their staff on courtesy and kindness to customers.

Great location in Plaka, just a few blocks from Plaka restaurants and Acropolis in one direction, Syntagma Metro stop in other direction. Helpful staff. Comfy beds. Decent breakfast buffet. Property is a bit dated. Hotel next-door has great rooftop restaurant/bar with a terrific acropolis view.
