The property is great to get around city center, Akropolis, Plaka etc. You don't need transportation unless you plan on going elsewhere. The staff is very helpful and address any concerns, maintenance issues etc immediately. The only thing that could be a concern is the construction they have going on the Presidential suite. Lots of noise during the day but if you are out of the hotel during that time it won't bother you

Family stayed a few nights in mid April. Service was exceptional at Electra Palace Athens. Every staff member was welcoming and helpful in addressing any needs we needed. We stayed in the Suite Acropolis View & Balcony (Room 605). The balcony was spacious with a spectacular view of the Acropolis. Room was clean and well maintained daily. Their restaurant on the top floor has a breathtaking view of the Acropolis and Athens. We enjoyed the breakfast and never had to wait for seating, perhaps being in April before the high season. Electra Palace Athens is located walking distance to the Acropolis, museums and plenty of restaurants, shopping. Highly recommended!

Nice hotel with a great breakfast and restaurant staff. We stayed with small children and felt a little unwelcome at times, especially when in the main lobby, with the hotel more geared towards non-families. The third bed option in the is quite uncomfortable and the air con is loud Perfect location and views but overall very expensive compared with the experience
