Bathroom and shower literally in the room next to your bed and separated only by a glass doors. No privacy what so ever. When you take a shower water is going straight to the room next to your bed. Big window looking into..... closed space with a fire stairs. But they have a coffee Nespresso machine in the room and breakfast has choices that cooked for you.

We arrived early and were very grateful to be given an early check in. The room was fine. It is basic, but was clean and comfortable. The shower and shower products were amazing. The breakfast was good. Overall nothing outstanding, but good for one night. The staff were pleasant and helpful. Lots of places to eat nearby.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The hotel was spotless – everything felt perfectly clean and well maintained. The staff were always helpful, friendly, and especially accommodating with our baby, which made the trip even more enjoyable and stress-free. The location is also fantastic – just a quick 10-minute walk to the City

Room was nice and spacious! The hallways were a little unclean and by unclean I mean like scuff marks on the walls and a little dark in terms of lighting but once you enter into your room it was perfectly fine. Staff was nice, they provided us with taxi transfer to get to the ferries as well which was easy for us. We only stayed one night which was good enough for us! Definitely walking distance to the flea markets and tourist areas, and lots of restaurants and food options around. About a 15-20 minute walk to the acropolis!

Lovely boutique hotel in the heart of Athens

Small boutique hotel in the heart of Athens with clean, modern rooms and an excellent restaurant. Our room didn't have a window, but since we spent most of the time out exploring the city, it wasn't a problem. There was plenty of light in the room and the tall ceilings made the room seem even larger. The hotel staff were most accommodating in getting us taxis/ transportation when needed around town or to/from airport and cruise port.
