The staff was very friendly, helpful, and responsive.
The air conditioning worked great, we just needed a lesson on how to turn it on and the staff was very quick to explain it to us.
Room was clean
The hot tub worked and felt great to get into after walking the city all day
Did not go to spa.
Over all I enjoyed the hotel and would recommend it to someone wanting to stay in the middle of everything

Excellent service. Great location. In the middle of the city, yet really quiet. Very clean and we'll appointed room. The Spa is ideal with a really professional team. We were sorry the restaurant was under renovation, but there are great eating options right by the hotel.can't wait to come back.

First some positives - staff were incredibly helpful and polite, amenities such as mini bar and robes were lovely, and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel is in a very central location, easy to walk to any of the sites and easy to get to by public transport.

Hotel is very hard to find, it was pure luck that the concierge was outside smoking and asked us if we were looking for the hotel.

The bathroom was not very well laid out at all. The shower tray filled with water and overflowed within a minute of the shower being on - there was a drain in the bathroom so unsure if this was by design? If so it was still poorly designed as the floor slopes down towards the door, so as well as flooding the bathroom it also floods the hallway.

The room we had was advertised as having a hot tub, a more accurate term would be “out door bathtub, with jets”. It is only suitable in size for one person, and is overlooked by multiple windows.

First of all it was an amazing location. Small walk to all of Athens best locations.

The room was great. Loved the bathroom and the jacuzzi was fantastic and worked well which is rarely the case. It could be a little more private but we used it just fine.

The spa was wonderful with very welcoming staff. At first we were a little disappointed we had to pay extra for the spa but actually it was a wonderful experience / facilities and we ended up going back.

The staff were very friendly / helpful and allowed us a late check out to use the spa and also held our bags until we left for the airport.

Overall a wonderful experience and highly recommended.

DO NOT STAY HERE. They sold me a room with air conditioning. There was no air conditioning and the room was 26*C. Completely unacceptable. They told me in writing I would receive a refund due to this issue and I then booked another hotel. They have since and Hotels.com has since refused the refund. Absolutely terrible services.

great location: easy to walk to basically everything you need to see in Athens in minutes. Plenty of restaurants and shops immediately around. the room was fantastic and very large w/a slightly separate sitting area, and was very clean (im picky). I also booked the room w/the outdoor hot tubon the balcony which was really great and relaxing after walking very day for weeks! also not that if you book a room w/breakfast included, the restaurant doesn't open until 8am,so if you have an early flight like it did you wont be able to take advantage of that. Staff was helpful and accommodating, however the check-in desk was located inside the restaurant, which was unusual but the staff helped direct me when they saw me coming w/my bags ... Also helpful, was that there was a small pull-off/parking area in front for taxis/vehicles (this is VERY handy when getting dropped off/picked up), since many hotels in Athens dont have this .. I would definitely stay again!

The entrance is through the restaurant, makes it feel a bit less safe and we had some trouble figuring this out. Checkin/checkout otherwise was easy and straight forward. We had a great stay - the room was amazing, quite big for europe with high ceilings, they could have probably made the bathroom bigger by even just 1 foot on each side, would make a huge difference. Pretty weird though that I was asked for a deposit for the room (or write down a CC number) - haven't been asked this anywhere else.

Don’t trust!

They had a room with a queen and a single but for some reason they wouldn’t let three of us stay in it. Three women that were going on a cruise the next day and only rented it for one night. We had to get a whole new room for the third person and that was just wrong!

This hotel is really well located but it is worth noting the hotel spa/pool can only be used for 30 minutes a day which must be pre-requested.
The breakfast comes at an additional charge which isn’t explicitly clear in the listing. Don’t get excited about your free drink on arrival as it’s only a bottle of water. Most of the staff are really friendly and the staff in the restaurant they share an entrance with are really welcoming as well.

Charming Room, Great Location, But Some Letdowns

We really appreciated the kind and welcoming staff at check-in, and the room itself was charming—clean, quaint, and in a fantastic location close to great shopping, restaurants, and nightlife. It was a lovely setting for the final night of our 25th anniversary vacation.

However, there were a few aspects of our stay that unfortunately didn’t match our expectations, especially considering the reason we booked this particular property. We noted our early arrival time in advance, but early check-in wasn’t available—and more importantly, there was no formal baggage storage. The staff kindly directed us to leave our luggage in an adjacent restaurant, but it didn’t feel secure and left us uneasy, especially after a long cruise with multiple bags.

Additionally, one of the main reasons we chose this hotel was to use the spa before our travels home. Sadly, we were told it wasn’t available due to the absence of housekeeping at that time. This was a big disappointment, particularly as it was meant to be a relaxing close to our special trip.

While we truly appreciated the warm staff and clean room, we feel a partial refund would be a fair gesture given that some of the key amenities and services we booked for were unavailable. We hope this feedback is helpful, and we would encourage future guests to confirm access to amenities and check-in options ahead of time—especially when arriving early with baggage.

The location of the hotel is perfect for any attractions you may want to see. Plenty of food options available in the area. Staff was friendly and the room was clean. The bathroom is not ideal for getting ready. Lighting was poor and no real place to put your toiletries or clothing. Hotel would be fine for shorts visits. The air conditioning worked, but was difficult to use.

The hotel location is very convenient, walking distance to major touriusty things to do. The spa is wow! I just wish the time slots were one hour rather than half hour. Our room was surprisingly quiet. Comfortable bed. Also, the restaurant is very good with kind and caring stuff. Next time in Athens we will stay there again

Good hotel well located

The hotel is above a restaurant that is part of the hotel. We booked rooms described as having a hot tub. This turned out to be a jacuzzi bath in the courtyard not a hot tub. These rooms access overlooking the restaurant interior leading to hearing customers noise in the late evening and staff clattering breakfast posts around in the morning disturbing lazy starts. I would not recommend booking the rooms 10and 11 (the ones with the outdoor jacuzzi baths) if you don’t want to hear this noise.
The beds were comfy and the room decor lovely with high quality fittings. Breakfast was basic and not to our preferences so we only ate breakfast once. I would stay again but not pay the extra for the rooms with the jacuzzi for the above reasons.
Hotel is well located with great restaurants in short walking distance.

Not a great experience

Despite the amazing location of the hotel, the experience was not great. The breakfast service was very slow and the choice very basic and limited. Spa would have been amazing if the water of the jacuzzi/pool wasn’t freezing cold! And a few other issues. I would not return…

When I arrived, they informed me that they upgraded my room. I was given a room with a hottob instead of the standard room which was amazing. I used it every day after walking around the city and it was great. They assisted me with every question I had about visiting certain sites and even called in to see how busy it was that day etc. I received a note about the strike a few days before the actual day which was even before my airline contacted me (I was supposed to fly out on that day and my flight was cancelled) so becauses of their note, I could arrange alternative travel. Besides the great staff, the room was lovely, a lot of ammenities and a really great bed. Robes, lots of towels all included. The pool/sauna/steamroom are free for 30 minutes so do not expect full access at all times, but I'm sure it's worth paying a bit more if you wish to use it more. I used the 30 minutes and it was lovely. Booking that time also means you have it to yourself. Highly reccommend this hotel.

Should you wish to stay in an Adults Only property w/ no A/C and inconsistent hot water, then this is the place for you! This is the 2ns time I've stayed at this property...and BOTH times, no A/C. Last year I was kind of like, okay...well, my room faces the street, I can open the window, things happen. But to stay in a hotel TWICE now, and not have A/C both times....no, will not be staying again. I couldn't open my window b/c the one window that didn't just sort of mysteriously close on its own, backed up to the person's balcony next to me. I didn't realize this until I was unpacking my suitcase and saw him sitting outside my room, scared me to death. I kept thinking \"if I leave my window up there is nothing to prevent him from hopping thru the window and stealing my wares...or worse.\" So I had to close the windows. Even tho a fan was left in my room the temperature hovered around 30. It was cooler in the hallway than my room. It was miserable. And the people at the front desk are either A. Less than helpful/sour or B. Can't really do anything about it. I asked to speak to the manager given this was the 2nd time this happened, but that could not be facilitated. Nor could I be moved to another room. Then, I went to take a shower the next day and I didn't have hot water. I've lived in/travelled around Europe alot, so I understand the intricacies of how to operate a shower. The water was tepid at best. Will not stay at again or recommend to others.
