Our stay here was good, however, the hotel could use some improvements. The location was centrally located to main attractions and very walkable. However, the area is a bit sketchy at night. The room was clean, however could use some upkeep. The bathroom/shower combo is VERY small and challenging to access the toilet due to the way the door opens into the toilet room, even for an average sized adult. Our shower constantly leaked into the toilet room causing quite a mess after every shower. We had to put towels on the floor after every shower. The shower also had mildew in it and could use a better cleaning. Overall, I would stay here again for the convenience, but some updates need to be made to the shower. Do not stay here if you are plus sized, as you will not fit in the shower or toilet room.

Enough to be annoying…the glass doors in the toilet/shower area are very cumbersome if not frustrating to use.

We sleot well but the room is not designed for anyone to stay for a longtime with comfort. Minimal design and minimal furniture. The major draw is the location… being very easy to get to the meteo.

I did not eat breakfast there. The room had the most comfortable beds and pillows. The staff went above and beyond, printing things for me and even held a bag for me when I left Athens as I was coming back to stay with them. They arranged taxis to get me from the airport and provided me with directions. I would highly recommend hotel. It’s also walking distance to some of the top areas.

La chambre était très propre est grande. Par contre il faisait beaucoup trop chaud (séjour fin mars) et pas de climatisation disponible à cette période et difficile d’aérer car toutes les chambres standards donnent sur une cour intérieure très sombre et il y a juste des petites fenêtres que l’on peut ouvrir. On ne voit donc jamais le ciel. Une réceptionniste a réussi à nous procurer un ventilateur pour faire un peu d’air. De plus il y avait un forte odeur venant des égouts qui partait et revenait. Sinon l’hôtel est vraiment super bien situé.

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.

I would certainly not consider this a 4-star hotel as it could benefit from some updating and modernization. The hallway walls and carpeting appeared worn and I didn't like the lack of separation between the toilet/shower and the room. On a positive note, the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The hotel is also in a great location —just a short walk to the Acropolis with plenty of shopping and restaurants nearby.

From the warm welcome by staff from the moment you enter (thank you Nisa, Nikos and team), this felt like the most comfortable place to stay in Greece. The hotel is ideally located, attractive and very clean, and my room felt more spacious than usual hotels. Breakfast was delicious, promptly served and fairly priced. The aptly named Gem is a total winner.

The hotel boasts a fantastic location, being just a short walk away from all the major tourist attractions and the shopping square. While we found the breakfast selection to be lacking and not up to par, we recommend considering dining options elsewhere for your morning meal. Aside from this, the hotel itself is truly excellent!

We loved our stay as it was within walking distance to most sights. We had a room on 6th floor with a veranda which was perfect for a drink before bed. Breakfast first class. Bed very comfortable, bathroom and shower first class with beautiful Greek toiletries. I actually went across the road to the local pharmacy and bought some to take home. Good air con which was def appreciated. Would recommend.

Our stay at The Gem Society was fantastic. Concierge was very helpful in arranging our transportation needs for a large group traveling with a small child. They had a play pen for the baby inside one of the rooms ( we rented 5 rooms total). The standard rooms were larger than we had anticipated, the beds comfortable and the experience overall was fantastic. Great location, great restuarant suggestions by the hotel and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to be within walking distance to the Ancient Agora / Acropolis and good restaurants. 10/10, thank you!
