Loved the rooftop garden restaurant and bar! Terrific breakfast! Great views of the Acropolis and Zeus’ Temple! However, the room was old, outdated, had no usb ports and the single 110 voltage outlet was broken. Asked for international adapter but was told to purchase one down the street. 😔

The room was like something out of the 1970’s. Truly awful as had not been updated for decades Had a balcony room looking over a flat roof when advertised as pool view. Breakfast was not a pleasant experience as hot food ran out and took 30 mins to be replaced. Not sure how they have 5 star rating. Overpriced and under delivered

The staff here made you feel like you were a burden. Do not disturb sign means pound on my door and walk in at 8am here, then gets mad because we told them to get the f out… The hotel lobby looks amazing and should for the price. You get to your room and it’s not what the pictures showed, smelt horrible, looked like it was from the 80s still (hence not like the pictures that were full reno and looked bran new). I travel full time for work and this is a first for me. This hotel is worth about $50 a night max with how run down and horrible it was. DO NOT STAY HERE. It’s so bad that I tried contacting Expedia to get a refund, still waiting.

We were moved after spending the first of four nights at this hotel. First room was a dump with a circa 1930's toilet that sounded like a jet plane and bathtub that was dark, and windows that didn't block out street noise. This review is based on the second room which was spacious with a beautifully laid out bathroom with generous shower enclosure, power blackout blinds, comfortable bed but pillows could be better. The room did not have enough electrical outlets, no coffee machine, no complimentary water, which I expected based on the price paid. It did have a good breakfast for a European hotel with a wonderful view from the rooftop restaurant. However the extra charge for a cappuccino was the first I have experienced over 30 hotels I have stayed in in Europe. Not sure why they feel compelled to do this. The hotel is in close proximity to Plaka and other popular sites. Staff are pleasant, especially Nicholas at front desk who was kind enough to move us to a better room and extend our check-out time.
