Best staff at any hotel we’ve ever stayed in. My mom broke her foot 2 days into our vacation and they helped setup medical care and were very accommodating with her crutches and scooter. We had an early morning excursion planned and they had breakfast boxes prepared for us the night before. They setup taxis to and from the airport as well. Hotel itself was very nice and modern and the beds were comfy! 10/10 would recommend and would stay again

Very nice hotel in the heart of Athens, close to the shopping areas and 10 minutes walk from the Acropolis. The staff are very friendly. Crystal marked out all the key places to visit on a map, giving us various tips and also ensured we would have breakfast boxes on the days we would be leaving early on tours. The rooms are a decent size with modern fittings.

We loved the area. There were tons of places to eat, shop and close to the Acropolis. Staff was wonderful. We were in town way before check-in time and they got our room ready for us early. The only minor issue was there is no staff available between the hours of midnight and 8 a.m. You receive a code to get in and out of the building, but they made sure we had a taxi called for us for our early morning flight. It wasn't a big deal for us. We enjoyed our time there and would stay there again. Front desk staff was extremely helpful and friendly.
