The location near tourist sites can’t be better. Hotel is upscale though rooms sizes and conditions vary between visits depending on booking rates. The room pictures may not be what you’ll get. Rooftop restaurant and breakfast are nice.

This classy hotel is gorgeous - and just steps away from the main tourist spots in the city center of Athens. It’s also an ideal choice if you’re running the Athens Marathon, just about a half-mile walk from the Olympic stadium at the finish line.

We loved having the pool to retreat to after being out in the heat and the crowds of Athens. My room was gorgeous directly below the restaurant and with a view of the Acropolis. Loved everything about staying here.

The best thing about the hotel was the location. We paid extra for a room that overlooked the Temple of Zeus (you could just see the acropolis if you moved the curtain). It was very convenient as the Hop On, Hop Off buses stopped 50 m away and the busses/trams from Sp stopped right outside.
