The property is certainly significantly more dates than the photos. While the staff was nice the noise from the surrounding bars was intolerable. It’s not just background city noise it’s loud pounding music until 4 am . They know this is an issue since they leave you earplugs in your room. After a long international fight and then two nights without sleep I left there completely exhausted.

The location of the hotel is excellent with lots of bars close by which does make it noisy but it’s worth it . Staff were very friendly and helpful and responded to an issue we had with our room very promptly. Thanks Fountain staff we had a great time !

This hotel was amazing. From the staff to the room I have no complaints. Although the outside area may seem sketchy don’t let that fool you as we were out throughout all times of the day and night. There were plenty food options nearby and it’s very close to Monastiraki and the acropolis. While the bars are open late we could not hear the noise from our room and we were able to sleep just fine with no issues.

Staff were super helpful and made us feel welcome. One thing that was not so good was that the breakfast started at 0830 and finished at 11. We were out early every day and so only option was to take a packed lunch that they provided. It worked but we generally eat out when possible.
