great hotel!

athenian traveler Aug 14, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

The hotel was great. Only issue was that the location wasn't central (wasn't walking distance to sites) but they have a free ... shuttle that takes you to Syntagma Square. Great service, wonderful views from the top floors.

Great hotel, terrible location.

Easy Traveler Jul 25, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

I was only in Athens for a few days. The hotel was fabulous, but it was in the middle of the ghetto.It's a 5 minute walk from ... the metro, but you have to travel through a pretty sketchy neighborhood. The location is fine for business travelers or adults, but i would not travel with children here. The hotel staff was excellent and very helpful. The rooftop resturant is pricey but it has a perfect view of the acropolis. If you want to save money don't eat dinner and just get a bottle of wine to enjoy the view.

Athens

Shooter101 Jul 16, 2009

At first we got a smoking room that smelled, they moved us to a lesser room. We paid more for a room with a view. We got half ... a building on the seventh floor in the way of the view. Stay away from 740. The hotel is nice but I paid for a room with everything, with a view of the city and got a smaller room with a building in the way of the view that I paid more money for. Price for dinning where very high. Breakfast cost 45 dollar a person or 32 euros. Food in the city was very cheap. The hotel price where very high on food.

Great location to see all that Athens has to offer. A 10 minute walk, at best, and we were in the heart of the city, the ... Plaka, Acropolis, Olympian Zeus. The staff was super friendly, very courteous, and made traveling in a different country very easy. The rooms where very clean, large, and had everything a vacationer would need.

Spend the extra money and get the Business class rooms. It wasn't that much more, and the business class room was so much ... nicer than the regular rate rooms! Well worth the money. Excellent service, staff and very modern room. We would stay there again if we travel to Athens again.

Contemporary charming

Would recommend to a friend!

Although the hotel is not situated in the center of the city, the hotel shuttle made places accessible. The staff is very ... friendly and accommodating. The view of the Acropolis from their Premier Restaurant is breathtaking. The open buffet at their main restaurant, Cafe Zoe, had a great selection of dishes for breakfast and lunch. Our room was spacious, well maintained and with a very good view of the Acropolis. As expected!
