Hands down the nicest place I’ve stayed over the course of multiple overnight stays in Athens. From the location, to the rooms, to the staff, to the complimentary breakfast - everything about this place is off the charts perfect. Will gladly stay there again should the need arise.

This was one of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. I couldn’t take enough photos of the beautiful decor. The room and hotel had everything you needed and a detail wasn’t missed. I wish they had had an option of a less full/puffy pillow as all were really big and hard to sleep on. If you like a thin pillow-might want to pack it. Hotel parking was piece of cake and location was excellent. I love this place and would be thrilled to stay there again.
