Air con kept turning itself off after an hour and required us to get out of bed to turn it back on, just what you want when it's 38c Before the second night of the stay we told the reception staff who said they'd send a technician which didn't happen. 2 sachets of coffee in the room, not replaced sure the first night. Lots of commotion in the 2nd floor hallway on the second night. Got the impression lots of prostitutes were coming and going throughout our stay.

This hotel was subpar at most. The breakfast has a large selection but the quality is inferior. Most of the staff are very nice and helpful. I think they are trying to make up for what the hotel and area lacks. It is not the best area, in that it has two strip clubs sandwiching the hotel. Not great for families. There are people lingering around day and night outside the hotel. It’s fairly close to most things so that is convenient, but otherwise, I would not choose this as a family option.

Ok, nothing special!
We arrived very late at night due to flight delay. Our room was big with a partial view of the acropolis which was nice. Staff were polite and took our bags to our room. We paid extra for breakfast which was OK. Room fridge had a couple of soft drinks and 2 small bottles of water. Water was very expensive at €2 per 0.5L bottle, so we did not have any! Nice large shower but floor outside of the shower was badly stained from water damage. There was no soap for washing. Rather disappointing stay as we thought the description of the hotel sounded much more luxurious!

Great hotel, but it’s right on a major highway with night clubs and shady joints next door. Great staff, great service, rooms were clean and comfortable, just the area was a bit concerning. We did not have any incidents and nor we felt unsafe at any point. But was the only downside of this otherwise great hotel.

Location is not far from Plaka and Monatsiraki place, and just 25 minutes from the acropolis entrance. We selected the hotel for the parking facility that they have. and overall, location on the main road is an advantage especially if you are motorized. The hotel amenities and quality are acceptable, good value for money. but the room was with no view at all.

Pros: big hotel room Cons: Room issues : we notified the hotel of each of the following to which they did not action - air conditioning was barely working, it was set to 23 and room sat at 28 degrees. There was a sliding window that did not lock and the hotel said they would send maintenance but it was never fixed. Location issues: although it seemed industrial there were out door clubs blaring music till 6 am one of the nights we stayed. There is no sound proofing to the windows so it felt like we were just outside. Additionally - not bad for my partner and I but it was a solid 30-40 min walk to the north plaka area / 25-30 to enter the south plaka area. You also have to cross several busy streets without a cross walk as an fyi. Would not stay here again - unfortunately two not so great nights.
