Great hotel central to Plaka and acropolis. Only issue was check in . Multiple people checked in early but front desk did not do paperwork. 50 people waiting in lobby. Once rooms were ready(before check in time) there was a mad rush to get on a very long line and slow process. They should have taken all guest info at check in, and when rooms were ready, just give out key

It truely saddens me to write this review. My family and extended family discovered this hotel over 15 years ago. It is or I should say have been our go to hotel in Athens. It is a treat for us to stay and enjoy the beautiful roof top view and breakfast before heading to the islands. This trip was put in a room with non working AC, After 4 seperate requests to have the AC checked they waited till 3:00 a.m. to offer to move us along with shrugged shoulders from the manaement at the front desk. So very shocked and saddened. Good bye Royal Olympic for my entire family.

The location was excellent and the rooftop view was amazing from the Acropolis. The swimming pool was unusual deep. Guests had to be good swimmers or congregated by the edge of the pool. The air conditioner worked very poorly, we had a bathroom that had a water backflow from the floor drainer, making the floor wet every time we shower. The bedroom is outdated and the bed is not comfortable. Breakfast was average nothing extraordinary. Some young male receptionist from the evening looked away from guests to avoid. On the pool bar and rooftop the guest services were better. We tried the rooftop restaurant for a evening meal the food was good,but expensive.

The location is perfect for exploring Athens. The staff are lovely and helpful. The rooftop restaurant and bar are great. I think it used to be a luxury hotel years ago and is a bit tired now, but it was still clean and well maintained.

I called the front desk to ask for bob feather pillows as my husband is severely allergic to feathers. they told me that all their pillows were foam. my husband almost choked sleeping that night and had to use his asthma inhaler. I checked the pillows again and they were indeed feathers. I bright them to the front desk and had them change the pillows in our room. we stay in this hotel annually as my husband has business in Athens and i was really surprised that they lied to us about the pillows and didn’t take his allergies seriously. . Other than that, it was a great stay. the location, the breakfast, roof top bar and location are all fabulous.
