Divani Palace Acropolis

10/10 Excellent
"Great location, less than 10 minute walk from the Acropolis, and about 20 minute walk from the area where all restaurants and big shops are. Hotel was clean, breakfast was nice. We were told the things on the mini fridge were at cost, so we didn’t touch them, although many other reviews mentioned they are included with the stay. The pool is indeed small, with about 10 sun lounges and a couple of tables and chairs. My children were not permitted to play with the ball in the pool, so prevent splashing the other guests. Overall a very pleasant stay. If we find ourselves in Athens again, we will not hesitate to stay at this hotel."
