The staff was very nice and cordial. The location is a stones throw from all restaurants and events. Most of the sites is about 20min walk. The staff was very helpful. They even did a taxi arrangement on the day of taxi strike. Very pleasant stay and will stay again if we went to Athens again.

The only negative I would say is that there is not an elevator. A lot of stairs. Didn’t bother us but if you have family members that would have difficulty climbing a few flights of stairs, then it would be an issue for you. The room was great. The hotel was great. Great location because you can walk to a lot of places you will probably be visiting while in Athens.

This is a wonderful boutique hotel. Location in central Athens is outstanding. All the staff is extremely friendly and responsive to anything you need. The breakfast buffet is delicious. Front desk manager Kalina was especially helpful when my purse was lost and I needed to contact the tourist police. I couldn't recommend this hotel higher.

This could easily be excellent vs good. Location is outstanding, hotel is very clean and staff is very friendly and eager to serve. I rated good and not excellent because there is no baggage service before 11 am, and it’s very dangerous to haul luggage down the spiral winding stairs, especially with no rails. If your room is in the Residence, you’re on your own if you have an early departure.

Great stay with little tweaks to improve

Our stay was good, great location and housekeeping did a great job each day. Think check around mobility is required as we were on a second floor with only stairs which could cause other guests issues. Also a mirror above the dressing table would be useful for doing hair and make up as full length mirror doesnt have a power point near it.

Amazing, chic, central hotel

Had an amazing stay at the The Residence, the staff were more than helpful and couldn’t do enough for you, can’t praise them enough. Location is superb, rich in the heart of Monistiraki and easy walking to all the main attractions. The room was also great, very clean, great facilities and even had a view of the Acropolis! Would definitely recommend and looking forward to our next stay.

It was a really nice hotel, clean and tidy, with a large room big enough for 3 people. The breakfast included both hot and cold options. The biggest issue was finding somewhere safe to park. You need to plan this before arriving, so you don’t waste ages in downtown traffic!
