Very good selection for breakfast. Plenty of food . Good staff - cheerful and regularly clearing tables at peak time . The only thing that my husband was let down by was the toaster . It only toasted on 1 side and after 2 attempts the bread was warmed but not toasted . He gave up . His cherry jam was just a thick red colour syrup .

The staff was very welcoming. Breakfast had everything you would want. Room is a bit small, but we expected that. Bed was clean and comfortable. Room was clean. Dinner on rooftop was wonderful and spectacular view of the Acropolis. Fairly busy area, but did quiet down after midnight. Hotel is older, but kept up nicely

We had a very nice stay. The staff was polite and helpful. They tried to accommodate the fact that we arrived early. The room was clean but the "wardrobe" has hangers that were unreachable unless you were very tall. No average person could hang anything in there. The breakfast was copious and varied. Nothing to complain about. The location is perfect too!

Room was very clean. Great location. We were on the 6th floor. It sounded like someone was moving furniture continuously above us until about 10:30. Avoid that floor if possible. Also, the restaurant filled up and we weren’t able to eat dinner at the hotel as planned. We even mentioned it to the staff. Did not realize a reservation would be needed.
