Perfect location! Right near a main metro station to the ports and airport, and walking distance to all the tourist sights and great restaurants! Staff were so lovely and the buffet breakfast was amazing!

Great location in the centre of the Plaka

Everything is on your doorstep and the view from the rooftop bar never fails to impress. Good price too - for the location. Thanks Plaka Hotel!

Great hotel close to amentities, shops and restaurants in the Plaka area. The roof top bar is a great way to finish the day with a cool drink watching the sunset over the magnificent Acropolis. The staff are very helpful and friendly. Rooms are not overly large however comfortable enough for 2 people to stay.

Central location

The Plaka Hotel was perfectly located - 5 minutes from Monastiraki metro, the ancient Agora, Syntagma Square. The hotel staff was excellent - friendly & helpful - and best of all was the rooftop bar with uninterrupted views of the Acropolis & the entire city. Brilliant!
