Lock in a great price for Electra Palace Athens – rated 8.8 by recent guests!

to get started.

Had a suite on the 7th, top floor. Very comfortable and quiet. Excellent balcony with great view of the Acropolis. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. The swimming pool on the roof garden was small but really nice. Also had a great view of the Acropolis.

Andrew, United Kingdom

Good breakfast included in the price. Central to most restaurants, bars , main shopping strip and the Acropolis and various museums .

Gennaro, Australia

Location in Plaka is excellent for the Acropolis, Agora, and nearby shopping. Breakfast is excellent. Pool area overlooking the Acropolis is good (although very busy in the afternoon). Le Greche just around the corner has the best Gelato ever.

Views were lovely, we only stayed one night. They booked us in two adjoining rooms which was perfect with our two kids.

Emily, United States of America

The breakfast at this hotel was AMAZING. It was the best breakfast of all the hotels we stayed in on our trip to Greece. The rooftop pool was also fabulous with a view of the Acropolis.

Amy, United States of America

We left pre breakfast but coffee and snacks are provided for early travellers from 4am - that's excellent

눉The restaurant on the roof garden is very good but a bit too pricy. Ate out mostly as very close to many good Greek resaurants. However, the ground floor restaurant and bar meals were very good value and consistently good quality.
눇Had a suite on the 7th, top floor. Very comfortable and quiet. Excellent balcony with great view of the Acropolis. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. The swimming pool on the roof garden was small but really nice. Also had a great view of the Acropolis.

눉Rooms are small and the air con struggles a bit. The hotel is not sound proof. The housekeeping staff spend the whole day in the corridors meaning you can always hear them when you are trying to relax in your room - which makes it not relaxing! The balconies for the Acropolis view rooms face on to apartment buildings and rooftops and you can be easily seen by the people who live there. The coffee was unfortunately terrible.
눇Great, convenient location in a lovely part of Athens. You can walk everywhere. The front office staff were very nice.

“A really nice hotel in a convenient location with great facilities and rooms.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Superior Double or Twin Room with Acropolis View
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉I booked a superior room with an Acropolis view. From the website photos I assumed that would be an actual view from my room. But we had to step out onto the hot balcony and look sideways for the view so I felt a bit deceived. Rooftop restaurant was lovely but portions are miniscule. Priced for the view. Good thing were weren't very hungry. Pool area was too crowded to use, no available chairs or lounges, which really disappointed us. I guess everyone else had the same idea in the afternoon of hot weather. The side street location is less than glamourous.
눇Lovely room, spacious, nice décor. Pool and rooptop restaurant bar are very nice with great views to the Acropolis. Large and pretty lobby, with doorman, fitting of a large hotel. Very welcoming. Convenient location in the Plaka area. Outstanding breakfast buffet and great eating area included. Front desk staff were wonderful.

눉Nice hotel, however, Maybe I'm mistaken, but I felt stereotyped. They kept asking if we were staying there all the time we were there. It seemed difficult to them to believe that a couple of Mexicans came to Stay at their hotel. Did not feel comfortable there and it was too expensive for the uncomfortable stay. Never again.

눉Our room was immediately next to the pool access door so it could be quite loud with people shuffling back and forth. Also at night there was a bunch of noise above our room (chairs dragging on floor, etc), presumably in the pool bar area, until pretty late hours into the night, but would eventually stop.
눇Hotel is perfectly located within Athens and in easy walking distance to all the major sites, staff was helpful and accommodating, pool is nice with great views, and breakfast buffet is quite large with a variety of food options.
