Acropolis View Hotel

The hotel is in an incredible position, right at the base of the south side of the acropolis, with everything within a 20min walk. Great hill walks right behind the hotel too. Very clean, great views from room and roof garden and fantastic breakfasts. Beds were super comfortable - haven't slept that well in years (caveat: could have also been all the walking/hiking 😉). Staff are all really helpful and there is a 24hr bar and reception too.

A little bit more space in the room would have been nice but you don't really spend much time in there anyway.

We were very lucky to snatch the last room with a view of the Acropolis (from the balcony of the room) just after Christmas. The location is within walking distance from the Acropolis Metro Station, if you have large suitcases, not so easy to walk, but if you have cabin trolleys or pushchairs, very easy to reach. It's nestled in one of the quiet streets at the foot of the Acropolis Hill, so very quiet at night. It is a small hotel (about 30ish rooms spreaded into about 5-6 floors) with an elevator. Breakfast is served on the roof, a few tables are in the glass conservatory, a few tables outside the conservatory. We've never seen so much breakfast served on a tray (the trays are enormous)!! Initially we wanted to have breakfast outside the conservatory, but soon we realised it's not a bad idea sitting in the conservatory because the pigeon troops invited themselves to dine with you. The conservatory still has an excellent view of the Parthenon! Plentiful and fresh breakfast with such a view is priceless!

I struggle to think of any.

Definitely my favorite hotel experience. The staff was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable. It felt more like staying at a favorite relative's house. The breakfast had a nice selection of tasty items that changed slightly every morning. It was very close to the Acropolis, Museum, shops, and restaurants. The mattress was super comfortable, too. Beautiful and relaxing view at night after touring the city. I really adored the staff and this hotel and can't thank them enough for their splendid hospitality.

First the front desk was really kind and helpful. They helped with every detail of our trip. They upgraded our room to a nice room with balcony. The hotel is very quiet and safe also very close the Acropolis like 5 minutes walk. Breakfast was a cherry on top. They are serving it on the terrace with the view of Acropolis. If the weather is bad they have a closed area on the terrace with the view of Acropolis of course. The terrace is one of the best in the town i think. The breakfast is really good with everything you need even they serve fresh orange juice, desserts, olive and Greek salad. Our room was really clean, quiet and has everything you need for.

The only thing is our bathroom has no ventilation, we couldnt open the window. Also they can put some hangers in the bathroom for the towels and clothes, liquid soap and slippers.

The view from the top floor lounge was stunning! Loved sitting up there in the evenings relaxing and listening to theatre presentations from afar. The beds were comfy and the staff were so helpful and accommodating. We so enjoyed the breakfast buffet with a view of the Acropolis! The location is the best - easy access to everything and the Hop off/Hop on bus has a stop right around the corner. Athens was such a surprise gift of history and art and ancient sights everywhere!

Nothing

Very well located to the Odeon Herodes, Acropolis and Museum, close to Plaka and subway Acropolis .... in a safe and quiet area! Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent breakfast !! with local & fresh products (bruschetta, salads, fresh fruit juice, delicious pastries etc etc). Pleasant bar with a large choice of drinks, wines, liquors, ....

The hotel and rooms may need renovation .... seems a bit old and outdated .... but largely compensated by the plusses of the hotel (location, quality, staff ...)

Great location, lovely staff, well-stocked bar and comfortable room. The roof terrace is beautiful, with amazing views of the Acropolis and the Parthenon. Breakfast was very good each morning, with Greek specialities as well as international food. Although the location is right next to the coach/car park for the Acropolis, it really is a quiet hotel. We'd be happy to stay there again.

Honestly, there isn't much to criticise! The rooms are small, but adequate for a short stay. Only breakfast is served on the terrace, but the team gave great suggestions of restaurants to try within 10 minutes walk.

Loved everything about this hotel. Very close to the Acropolis. The advertising photos are not doctored, you really do get that view from the Roof Garden and some of the rooms. It's clean, comfortable with lovely staff. An added bonus, when we were there, on both nights there was a concert in the Acropolis that we could hear from the roof garden. Although your in the centre of a busy city and at a major tourist destination, the roof garden is silent. Breakfast was great, with a variety of foods to suit everyone, best breakfast I've had in a hotel 😋.

There is a problem with the pigeons. They don't come near while your there but if you leave your food for a second, they will steal it. Or if you don't like birds, there is a glass awning, protecting you from birds without obstructing the view.

The view does not disappoint! The hotel top floor has an incredible view of the Acropolis and Parthenon. Be sure to check it out at night when all the lights are shining. Breakfast was better than most and included a wide variety of pastries, yogurts, and eggs/bacon/sausage. There was a fancy coffee machine to make your favorite coffee and a selection of teas, juices, and waters. The staff were extremely helpful, providing a map of the walkable sites (of which there are many) and arranged taxi service from the cruise port and to the airport.

The only recommendation is to put a top sheet on the beds. Our bed only had the down comforter on top and we got so hot (even with the AC blasting) during the night. A top sheet would have allowed us to uncover some but still have coverage.

The breakfast exceeded our expectations. The view from the rooftop was breathtaking. I couldn't ask for a better location. We were able to walk everywhere and had so much fun. The conceirge desk was very helpful and friendly. All of the staff was able to guide us and make suggestions for a perfect stay.

I wish that the view from my balcony was in front instead of on the side but it was still beautiful. Next time I will know to ask for a room in front of the Parthenon.
