The room was spotless and really cozy and beautiful. It had air conditioner/heater (the style you see in Japanese apartments, really efficient) and a balcony. There was free breakfast every morning (and we always looked forward to it!). The staff were friendly and kind, spoke English, and made everything really pleasant. The location was perfect. There were plenty of food options nearby (Apollonia Lyra and Aspro Alogo were excellent Greek food choices). An the hotel was located within a 5-20 minute walk of nearly everything we wanted to see. The National Archaeological Museum was just 2 subway stops away. The staff who cleaned the room while we were out always did an amazing job. We never felt unsafe at the hotel or in the immediate vicinity and I never worried about my belongings. I would absolutely stay here again on my next trip to Athens!
United States of AmericaLocation was perfect. Close to everything. Maria was very helpful and friendly.
PhilippinesExcellent options for breakfast for all diet and preference types. Staff was friendly and efficient, there was always enough food the number of guests in the dining area. I especially enjoyed the yogurt and fruit.
United KingdomStuff is helpful and nice, great breakfast, nice lobi with refreshments, great location. We got a crib with no extra charge.
IsraelThe location of The Hermès is very convenient and the rooms small but very comfortable. However. It was the staff which we most appreciated. They were very helpful and made us feel welcome.
United States of AmericaThe hotel was well located in the touristic area of Athens, walking distance to the Parthenon and the Museum. Lots of restaurants and shops. The room was modern and comfortable, but not spacious. Good enough for a few days.
United States of AmericaThe property is clean, comfortable and ideally located for sightseeing in Athens. We traveled as a family of five. On our initial stay, we had 2 rooms next to each other. The second time we stayed there, we had a family room, which is essentially two rooms next which other, with an extra doorway outside that can be closed so the rooms can connect. The staff was nice, the breakfast was tasty, and the hotel is in a safe location in Plaka. It is not a luxurious hotel, but it’s suited our needs perfectly.
United States of AmericaPerfect location in the Plaka area. Walk to everything. Staff is very helpful and knowledgeeable. Easy to get to and from the airport on the metro - close to Syntagma Square.
United States of AmericaWe were a group of 13 people looking for a comfortable place to stay after long day of travel to Athens. We arrived around 8:00 PM and we’re leaving next day 8:00 AM on a 2 day trip to Meteora. So we wanted a good location near Syntagma Square with breakfast included and nearby good restaurants. Also nearby to our tour pick up location. Hermes was everything we expected and more, since they gave us vouchers for a free drink each of us at the roof top of nearby Plaka Hotel, with a spectacular night view of the Acropolis. So great choice for our needs.
Puerto RicoThe staff was very helpful especially their front desk staff Oana. She was amazing in helping me out to gather some information from the airline office.
