We enjoyed out stay at Electra Palace. Location and staff are great. We got a room with a view of Acropolis and it was great, although there's no privacy when you go to the balcony bc you can see the other guests in their own balconies as well. Room is really small. Restaurant upstairs is a great addition to the hotel and complimentary breakfast was really good!

The Electra is a lovely hotel and it is easy location to cafes and sights. The pool is wonderful and so nice to have on hot days of summer after a busy stomp exploring sights. I highly recommend this hotel... It is pricey, but the breakfast, location, and staff are exceptional and worth the extra cost!

Good location and stunning view from the (rather small) room. We had a garden view room. Noise from events and dining at the garden is very disturbing. Housekeeping service quite mediocre (one day no towels left, another no tissues replenished). Front desk has been effective in solving issues. Alue for money is questionable.

We had a room with a balcony looking at the Acropolis. All I can say is WOW! Every single staff member we dealt with was incredibly welcoming and very friendly. The room was clean, the mattress was terrific and we would stay here again in a heartbeat! The restaurant (roof top) was stunning and so was the food. Love this hotel!

This hotel is an excellent option for a stay in Athens. Great location, wonderful staff, excellent facilities. The hotel was very clean and well maintained. It's a more traditional decor so if you're looking for something modern in style, this might not be the best fit. The restaurant for breakfast has amazing views of the Acropolis as does the roof top pool, which provides a wonderful reprieve for a hot Athens day.

We came back to stay after our cruise. Granted we arrived early (around 10AM) but we felt they weren’t going the extra mile to get our room ready before 3:00. We laid out by the pool until the rain ran us inside. The checkin staff was just a bit rude. They didn’t seem to like us or something. Totally different crew late at night and in the morning. They were nice. We enjoy the hotel itself and the restaurant.
