We had a really nice stay here with a fabulous balcony where we could see Acropolis and had a beautiful sunset. We had to walk a short way to get to the main areas for tourism or restaurants. There was one street that was unlit at night but we did not feel unsafe.

The staff are nice. There are many restaurants around. You can walk to many tour sites. From the top of the building, you can see beautiful Athens. The main issue is a nearby building is quite noisy - there are parties on the top every evening. A minor issue the hotel doesn't provide small face towels.

Horrible area. Dangerous specially at night. On one side of the avenue is the fish market , my view was an old wrecked , abandoned buildings and graffiti all around. A nightmare! At night around 3 am we had people yelling and screaming . The staff didn’t do anything to stop it.

Our stay was fantastic. The team upgraded our room upon check in from a Junior Suite to a Suite Terrace Acropolis View which really just made our stay all the more special. The staff were lovely and housekeeping were very efficient. The rooftop bar was a really lovely addition, and the staff were on hand to give recommendations of drinks. The hotel is in a great location, close to both metro stations and a fab selection of amenities. The acropolis was only a 30-40 min walk away. Other reviews have mentioned the noise levels from the roof top bar/club which is opposite the hotel. Whilst there was some noise, it wasn’t anything that negatively impacted our experience - the noise stopped at about 11pm (we stayed Fri-Sun nights). A lot of Athens can be loud around the same times due to the vibrant night life so don’t let it put you off! Would absolutely love to come back and stay again, and will be recommending to others!

The hotel is very nice, clean, with a very friendly staff. The breakfast at a nearby restaurant was good and copious. The rooms are spacios and the view from the 7th floor is magnificent. The main negative is the couple blocks around the hotel that look like a dystopian, dirty and decrepit. Once you walk more than 2 blocks, it gets better. Another negative is the loud music that comes from the rooftop clubs in the surrounding buildings and is hard to avoid. Overall, this is a very good choice for Athens, might not be best if you travel with children.
