The hotel is very well located, near the Monastiraki square. The reception staff was helpful and kind. The breakfast had a variety of food and drinks and the staff was also amazing.
The location of the hotel is excellent with lots of bars close by which does make it noisy but it’s worth it . Staff were very friendly and helpful and responded to an issue we had with our room very promptly. Thanks Fountain staff we had a great time !
