Comfortable and Convenient Stay

Nice hotel in central Athens, staff were very kind and attentive. My original room had a bathtub instead of a shower and I switched the second night to one with a shower. Otherwise no issues

The room was very clean and my husband and I could spread out as much as we needed. Not having a standing shower was hard but we made due with the tub and handheld shower head. And we had to get used to throwing our toilet paper in the waste bin and not own the toilet. The staff was freindly and easy to communicate with.

Lovely, clean hotel with amazing staff. We were in the annex, and we had about 5-6 flights of narrow stairs to climb to get to our room. It’s fine if you are aware of that, it was a bit of a struggle for my senior dad. And there is only a bath tub in our room, which was not the most convenient for cleaning up after a long hot summer day. But the staff brought our suitcases up which was incredibly kind!! Breakfast was nice in the main hotel, and they stored our luggage until our room was ready. Overall lovely stay, just be aware in the annex of stairs and potentially just having a bath tub.

The staff and communication were amazing. Property is clean and elegant, boutique style. In an excellent location close to everything by foot. Comfy bed and beautiful room. The only thing we didn't like was the bathtub shower. Its elevated and hard to step into and there was only a hand-held shower sprayer and no curtain which made showering difficult.

Lovely vibe and convenient location

Although we were on the 1st floor with no lift, this wasn't a problem as the very fit staff looked after our baggage. The willingness of staff to assist with anything we required was great - even offering to store some bags when we went on a short cruise. Although compact, our room had everything we required but our only issue was the lack of hanging space for the towels. We would have been happy to reuse them but they were too wet.

The service was very good, very clean property. Location was great! ( the street looks kind of shady, but a block away from the resort you have everything accessible ) The only negative part was that you have to walk 3 floors up (45 steps) to your room in the resident side, they do have someone to help with the luggage. The room was small and the mattress in the room was very uncomfortable.

I really appreciated the staff and free breakfast. The breakfast was amazing! The hotel was very nice, beautifully decorated. The only issues I had was that we were placed on the third floor and there was no elevator in that part of the hotel. If you are differently abled or have physical limitations that prevent stair climbing do not get the third floor - if you have heavy luggage this could be an issue although the staff helped take up the luggage. Be aware that this hotel does not allow tissue to be flushed in the toilet and if you aren’t accustomed to a bidet that might be awkward. Also the big spa tub was nice but we had no stand up enclosed shower. There was a handheld spray faucet but you end up getting water everywhere. All in all I would recommend for a short stay if you don’t need an accessible room. I don’t think this was made plain in the hotel description or booking with Expedia it should have been. I can only speak for our room the main hotel rooms may be different.
