Amazing location central to everything, 2 mins walk to acropolis entrance/acropolis museum, 5 mins walk to temple of zeus/national gardens, 10 mins walk to panathenaeic stadium, amazing restaurants couple mins walk in plaka neighbourhood (scholario is our favourite) 10 mins to monastiraki and the city centre. So glad we decided to stay here and would recommend to anyone
Did get quite noisy in the morning, doors are quite thin. Take earplugs if you are a light sleeper

Location is excellent! The hotel is right next to the Placa District, which is where the majority of souvenir shopping can be done. It was very close to both the Acropolis tour and many other tours for example, the walking food tour that we booked through get your guide. It is nice to have 24 hour concierge staff as well. Taxis cannot really get directly to the hotel, there is a major street only block away, which is very easy to get a cab. The view from the rooftop was nice and you can’t eat breakfast there although I would recommend going to a different restaurant.
The hotel charges for breakfast. It is seven euros, which is not unreasonable although the breakfast was rather mediocre and I would’ve preferred to either. Just get a cup of coffee somewhere or gone for a different restaurant, which is the location in the city. The furnishings were rather dated and we found one of the electrical outlets did not work. The major complaint I have is that the bed was extraordinarily uncomfortable and caused me to have significant back pain (I will note that this is not normally a problem I have).

Bedroom was extra small but we didn’t spend much time there so didn’t really matter. Maybe an upgrade bedroom to look more polished. We just had a sheet over. Maybe a light pretty blanket would look more modern. A old painting from the market against a wall to make it look more homey..small, affordable changes can definitely ‘up’ the hotel. Maybe consider a day shower for guests checking out late. ( like they have in airport lounges) Charge a small amount to use facilities when picking up bags to shower before heading to the airport for an international flight. Just an idea…..

The location is wonderful! You are on one of the busy tourist streets, lined with shops and restaurants, as soon as you exit the hotel. I also liked how close it was to get to the pickup locations for our excursions and activities. We also loved the staff! Everyone was so kind and helpful. And the view of the Acropolis from the balcony was exactly as pictured on this listing! There is also a rooftop where you can enjoy the views.
VERY MINOR - our bathroom was private and only for our use (required key to access), but it was external, as advertised on this room listing. I didn't understand what that meant, so that's my fault! The bathroom was across the hall, which took some getting used to, but it was still kept clean and very comfortable for us. No major complaints!

Wow what a location!!!! We were so impressed with this hotel. The location is amazing on a really lovely square and just minutes from the acropolis and plaka. Our balcony overlooked the church and was really cute. The best thing was the roof- unbeatable views!! And so nice that you could take (the really cheap 7 euro breakfast) onto the roof. They provide a tray for you and it’s a front row seat to the acropolis- without the cost of the fancy roof top restaurant. The whole place is brilliant value for money and so convenient.
This isn’t a fancy hotel, the rooms are basic but it is clean and a great location. The breakfast could have more variety but I think great value and having on the roof is so special. I’d stay again and will be recommending to anyone new to Athens that’s wants to be central to all the sights

Location is amazing and convenient. You can walk to the metro station/acropolis museum/acropoli site within less than 5 minutes. More importantly, the hotel and staff were exceptional. I stayed at both the Double Room, and the Double Room with extended bathroom (because I extended my stay! that's how much I loved this hotel and my time at athens). You get stunning views of the acropolis at sunset and sunrise from this hotel. I had no problems with their facilities and the staff there were always friendly and helpful. Hotel was also exceptionally clean. As a solo traveller (f), it puts my mind at ease that the reception is 24/7. Highly recommended this place. Thank you!

The location is amazing! Very central, close to the metro and a big avenue. Surrounded by great restaurants, bars and store, with a 24h kiosk right in front of the hotel. Walking distance to the main attractions of the city. My room had a partial view to the Acropolis, but the hotel rooftop has an amazing open view to the whole city, and right in front of the Acropolis. The staff was very friendly.
The room had bit of smell from the restaurants around. Nothing too bad, but just a remind.

A simple yet charming, and very clean hotel in Pláka. The hotel has good transportation connections and is close to many restaurants and attractions. The staff were very helpful and friendly. A simple but tasty continental breakfast is available for an additional fee of 7 euros. The room's balcony and the rooftop terrace offered stunning views. My room was on the first floor, not at street level, so some noise from the street could be heard during night time. It did not bother me that much, but this information could be useful for others.

Awesome location in the heart of Plaka surrounded by restaurants and lots of sights. Room was basic but clean, air con worked well, and there was an elevator which was convenient. Rooftop is sensational with great views of the Acropolis - especially at night and you can BYO food and wine!!!!
We left our bags in reception after checking out (just for a few hours) and when we returned to get them we simply wanted to sit down for 10mins in the “restaurant” area as it was a 40 degree day, but we were abruptly told to take our bags and leave haha strange
