The staff were superb. We were in Athens on the day of a major strike/protest demonstration. The guest relations person who is available in the breakfast room every morning, helped guests plan their day so as to avoid any problems. Rooms were very clean with adequate space. Tea and coffee is available in the lobby all day. Breakfast is plentiful with good choices. Front desk people were kind and helpful. The hotel doesn't have a rooftop view of the Acropolis, but their sister hotel, the Plaka, does and one can access their rooftop and bar. Perhaps because they don't have this facility, the hotel tries harder in other ways.

The staff was very helpful when I arrived there with no cash after being pick pocketed. They did everything they could to help me out including loaning me some cash, getting me some unused tickets to the acropolis, and helping with some initial free computer time. The hotel is in an excellent location to explore the Plaka area, and it was just a short walk to all the major sights.

The location was handy to all the sites as well as the main train line to the airport. Staff were friendly and very helpful. They had a dedicated staff member at breakfast who was available to help with directions and suggestions for site seeing, this was especially helpful. They also have a roof top lounge which has amazing views of the acropolis. The rooms are quite small but we've found most European hotels are the same.

Good location of the hotel. Elevator was not always working properly. Internet is very expensive, while it should be free or for a more reasonable price.

Good hotel in Plaka, very close to Syntagma and Monastiraki. Great assistance with touristic program. A special thank you to Maria, who is discussing every morning with all guests and helps with travel plans. Parking in the neighborhood is an adventure. It would be great if the hotel would contract with any of the parking places nearby and assist tourists.

Very good location, friendly staff and hearty breakfast included in the room price. Their "helwas" at breakfast are melt-in-the-mouth delicious! The hotel is close to Syntagma square and within walking distance to Plaka and Monastiraki. The staff is always willing to help with directions and any other tourist information that you might require during your stay. We also felt pretty safe walking around at night unlike other areas around Omonia which are considered unsafe and dubious. The bathrooms have been recently done up and are very nice compared with others I have encountered in Europe.

Great location! It is very close to all the attractions and quiet in the evening. Very nice staff and clean room! It would be even better if the double room has a double bed instead of two single beds being put together.

Central location to Acropolis & old town Athens, reasonable price, clean rooms and excellent staff. Maybe breakfast menu could vary a little more but it was always good.

Great breakfast every day - friendly, helpful staff and a great bathroom - the water pressure was a bonus and unending hot water a second bonus. The concierge assisted us to join a day tour at the last minute - 7:30 - when it left at 8:00 am. He handled all the calls and reservations quite smoothly. the mattress was a bit lumpy.

The breakfast in the morning was great, and the staff were very helpful! Also, the location of the hotel was perfect for visiting the various sites in Athens. Nothing to complain about. The view of the acropolis from the Terrace wasn't as impressive as expected.

2nd time at Hermes, and I will definitely be back again in the future! For the price and facilities, this hotel cannot be beaten anywhere in Athens city centre..................... it is perfect for shopping, sightseeing, access to /metro network, is spotlessly clean, and also has one of the best buffet breakfasts I have found anywhere. Would not hesitate to recommend Hermes to anyone!!
