Excellent all the way around
This hotel was wonderful. We enjoyed a view of the Temple of Olympian Zeus from our room and the Acropolis (and the Temple) from the rooftop dining area. The hotel staff members were extraordinary in every way.

Excellent Hotel!
I booked this hotel on a deal and it turned out to be amazing. It was centrally located (right across from Hadrian's Arch and the Temple of Zues), the rooms were spacious and clean, the staff was friendly, and the amenities were plentiful. The rooftop restaurant offered amazing views of the sites and was reasonably priced. I would definitely stay here again. Only small complaint would be that the room smelled a bit like smoke despite being a non-smoking room.

Great location, excellent roof garden
The hotel was in a great location near the Akropoli metro station, which was helpful during the taxi strike. The roof garden restaurant has amazing views and excellent food all day. The staff was helpful as well.

A Great Experience
Was a truly great value. Rooftop restaurant/lounge was great looking up at the Parthanon, especially at night. Room was very nice. Location was great - within reasonable walking distance of all the sights worth seeing for a reasonably fit person. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Great Location & Friendly Staff
Service was good, loved the location- close to everything. Room was a little on the small size but typical of many European hotels. Very helpful with transportation and any other requests we made. Onsite restaurant had a lovely view of the Acropolis and Temple. I would recommend this hotel to other travelers.

Perfect location for tourist sites
Lovely reception at checkin despite it being really late. Excellent views from many rooms. You can walk to all the main sites easily from this hotel. Breakfast is on the top floor looking at views of the acropolis on one side and the temple of Zeus on the other. Great way to start the day.

Lovely, convenient hotel near Acropolis
For those with little time and little patience for Athen's traffic, this is a great hotel if you want to visit the Acropolis and the museums of Athens. It is a short walking distance on safe city and pedestrian only walks. It is also close to Plaka for eating and souvenirs. The hotel has recently be refinished in a calming, metro type - my hotel snob wife loved it. Comfortable beds, clean new bathrooms and the staff was very helpful and friendly.

Not Applicable
BE sure to check the hours for historic sites and museums that you wish to visit before you book your travel, unless you will be in Athens for a long time. Our first day there, the museums were closed and we had wanted to depart earlier than we did. But we managed to squeeze in the museum.

First time European travelers
Excellent location. Friendly staff.
Our room was comfortable. We were on the street side and there was considerable noise but the view of the Temple of Zeus from our window made the noise worthwhile. The location near the Plaka was excellent and we were able to walk to the ruins we wanted to see. We especially enjoyed the rooftop restaurant, bar and its views. The first evening meal at the restaurant was slow but the following day we discovered a complimentary bottle of wine with an apology and explaing due to protests in the area the restaurant service had been affected. They also provided a snack breakfast to take on our early flight the day we left. We would stay again if in Athens.
