We loved our stat at the Electra Palace Hotel in Athens. It's centrally located in the Plaka, with so many dining options for lunch and dinner. It's also a 10-15 min. walk to the Acropolis (and has a beautiful view of the Acropolis from many rooms as well as their beautiful rooftop deck). The staff could not have been more helpful and the breakfast is delicious. Would definitely stay here again!

The Electra Palace was well-rated by our guidebook and it didn't disappoint. Although our room had no view, the breakfast terrace/restaurant had an amazing view of the Acropolis. The breakfast buffet is also great, with many different choices. The hotel makes it easy to explore the touristy Plaka area of Athens and you can also walk to the area around Monasteraki Square. The staff were very helpful and were able to help us book an extra night when our original plans fell through.

Electra Palace Hotel was an excellent choice in Athens. It is in a great location near all the top sights and the rooftop bar/restaurant is breathtaking. What a view! The breakfast buffet is outstanding. The hotel staff is helpful and accommodating. The pool is a fun place to hang out especially when weary from sightseeing. Highly recommend this hotel!
