The rooftop pool and bar was just what we needed!! It was a great way to relax on a day we had no tours. The location wasn't surrounded by any cute parts of Athens which is why I gave 4 instead of 5 stars but it was right near the metro. If you dont need to just walk out the door

Hotel was nice but area surrounding hotel is very rundown and didn’t feel safe especially in the evening. View of the Parthenon is very distant not like it showed in pictures. Food as vegans was very limited even though we’d stated dairy and egg allergies. Literally fruit for breakfast or bowl of pasta for dinner. Room was lovely, bed was comfy. Balcony overlooked railway and rundown properties on other side of railway line.

Giorgos at reception was welcoming and attentive. The room was spacious, modern, and had everything you need for a fantastic stay. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of options. The views from the 7th floor are impressive! The location was ideal for me, as I was heading to Meteora and the meeting point was nearby. It’s also just a few metro stops (less than a 5-minute ride) from the Syntagma area. I recommend this hotel for its family atmosphere, the care they show to guests, and the effort they make to ensure a great stay. Highly recommended.
