The hotel has great staff, everyone there was extremely helpful and friendly. On the first day, we arrived early from a night flight and were sleepy and jet lagged. The reception manager gave us early priority check-in, which we were extremely grateful for. The breakfast has extended hours till 10:30 am and both cold and hot options were available. Loved the Greek yogurt they served so thick you could eat it with a fork. The hotel is within a walking distance to the Acropolis, Agora and the metro station. We walked everywhere. Definitely would stay there again and give my highest recommendation.

The hotel was okay, but honestly it does not deserve four stars. Two stars would be more than enough. The furniture is very old, the room is small, and the cleanliness is below average. The staff are somewhat friendly, but every time the coffee sachets run out, you have to ask for more, which is very disappointing. The breakfast is below average and does not feel like a four-star hotel breakfast at all. The breakfast staff are not friendly at all, and the food seemed old and not fresh. I didn’t like the experience and I wouldn’t come back again.
