to get started.

I like that it was in a central location without access to shops and restaurants.

Anthony, United States of America

Staff exceptional everyone from from front desk to kitchen staff to housekeeping. .. housekeeping was over over the top amazing... any questions any ideas the front desk will assist in every way possible

Irene, United States of America

The location was wonderful. It was walking distance to most sites. The room was quiet, clean and comfortable. The tea and coffee in the lobby were a real treat. A great place to stay.

Karen, Israel

The breakfast and the staff at the dining hall were very kind. Although the eating area is very small, I was allowed to take breakfast to my room. I really enjoyed it.

Arturo, United States of America

Location was great. Easy walk from the metro. Super spot for touring Athens. Get local beer and enjoy the awesome garden roof top. Great value. There is a good seriously local greek restaurant in the adjoining alley that we ate at twice. Good local food at a very good price. (photo of restaurant below)
