Amazing stay in Athens
Fantastic accommodations just at the base of the Lycabettus Hill. Hotel has a unique feature with F and B in that like but scrumptious snacks are included with your stay as well as non alcoholic beverages. Certainly a boutique hotel I wouldnt hesitate to stay there again

Must stay, incredible staff
Periscope hotel is in a great location and the staff is incredible. Gigi, a member of their office team went out of her way to accommodate us. We arrived late and she took care of ordering our dinner, getting us wine, and making sure our room was comfortable. I would stay at the Periscope Hotel again.

This property is outstanding. The location of the Periscope in the Kolonaki section of Athens provided access to restaurants, shopping, and museums. The hotel is on a quiet street in a bustling neighborhood. The hotel and rooms are modern chic and clean. Staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. An excellent breakfast is available with complimentary snacks and beverages provided throughout the day. The Periscope is a top choice in Athens.

Loved the hotel, great room, great shower. Yummy free breakfast and 24-hour snacks. A little bit removed from the popular sites of Athens, but worth the extra walking!
