Spent the first 2 nights in Athens at Plaka Hotel; prime location for dining and shopping. Rooms could've used an update. The hotel has a lovely rooftop restaurant with stunning views of the Acropolis and surrounding areas. Walking distance to Ancient Agora of Athens, restaurants and shops on Mitropoleos Street (Monastiraki Square area).
