One of the most beautiful hotels I’ve stayed in. It was so clean and comfortable, it felt like home. The hotel design was romantic, unique, warm and very stylish! Located in one of the best inner city suburbs, only 20 min walk into the touristy part of Athens and the Acropolis. Our suite had a courtyard with beautiful gardens, which we sat in every morning eating breakfast and every night sipping on wine. This hotel was value for money. The staff treated us with warmth and generosity. We received a delicious fruit platter and Greek wine as a welcome. What a delight! Thank you to the staff for everything you did for us during our stay, especially Dora. She went out of her way to make us happy. Highly recommend this hotel if you want something different and a more personal and genuine service.

Nothing!

The furnishings and curated artwork make it feel as though you’re spending the night at someone’s uniquely fabulous home, rather than at a hotel. There was so much personality while still remaining soft and romantic. We loved our room’s attached courtyard filled with plants and comfortable seating, and we chose to have the included breakfast there rather than the rooftop. Reception was friendly, the digital guestbook was perhaps the best I’ve ever seen (it includes everything from how to operate the coffee machine to their art catalog and even menus where the staff will order in food for you). Despite being in a vibrant part of the city, it was very quiet and felt tranquil.

Nothing to dislike. Wish we had stayed longer!

We stayed in Shila 5 which had beautiful rooms and quirky touches. Loved the small balcony onto the pedestrian street. Great to have two bathrooms as we were there with our children. The roof garden is a gorgeous place to have breakfast or a drink. Location is perfect, close to but not too central. Staff were super helpful, attentive and friendly.

The front bedroom (which can also just be a living room if only 2 guests) overlooked a pedestrian street which had a busy bar on Saturday night - thankfully ear plugs are provided.

I'm not sure I can find anything I didn't like about our stay at Shila. It is just beyond beautiful, and there are so many lovely items from local artisans and also lots of information on the artwork dotted around. Absolutely gorgeous aesthetic. I also loved all of the handmade shampoo, conditioner, and body wash and wished I had bought some! The staff were very professional, warm, and helpful and went above and beyond for our stay. We would definitely return and this time try to find the hidden rooftop!

Nothing!

Shila is set in a smart part of town in a quiet, pedestrian street. It's really a set of apartments in a restored old townhouse. The whole place is dripping with raw, artistic style. The building is industrial chic: lots of original features and the original proportions are maintained, but with clever interior design, using raw building materials, like plaster walls and coiled copper pipes for the shower head. It all works really well. We had an apartment, with a small kitchen/hallway two bedrooms, one as a living room and two bathrooms. It has a fantastic roof terrace for drinks and breakfast, or just to hang out, read, write, sunbathe. The staff were charming and helpful we loved it. For something a bit more funky and even cooler, in a livelier part of town, where you feel as if you really are in Athens, because the Acropolis is ever present, with a fantastic view from the roof terrace and the fish and meet markets are a short walk away, Try their sister Hotel, Mona, where we also spent a night.

I absolutely loved the Hotel, and it is great if you want peace and quiet. However, I found the area it was in a bit too monied, lots of shiny bars and cafes. I could have been in a wealthy area of any city. I prefer a bit more character and sense of place, a sense of creativity and mix. This is certainly available in the sister Hotel, Mona, which is in a hectic part of town, a 15 minute walk away, surrounded by night life, cool shops and good, hip restaurants and bars. Definitely in an area which feels more lively and modern.

Very stylish. Beautiful suites and really helpful and professional team

Breakfast menu over three nights very limited . Would have liked cheese and perhaps fruit salad options . i pad communication from breakfast service fiddly and never worked when we tried it . There should be a member of staff stationed on roof terrace during breakfast service ideally.

The room was lovely and comfortable, great bed and a sweet little yard. Staff was very friendly and helpful, location is nice but a little far from the center (however it is within walking distance).

Could use a little more closet space 😊 The shower is special and well designed but not powerful enough for washing the hair.

Absolutely stunning hotel in a beautiful part of town. Most comfortable sleep I’ve had all trip. The staff were so helpful and kind in the lead up to my stay. A special mention to Dora who was amazing and helped me settle in and organise my stay. Always with a friendly smile! Thank you. Can’t wait to return

We left so early, we were unable to stay for breakfast, but the staff provided fruit, yogurt, etc. which were great and helped us get to the airport on time.

Everything about the Shila Athens, from location to the staff and decor, was wonderful. I couldn't give it a higher recommendation.

Loved the artsy-shabby chic decor. Great location in a quiet neighborhood but within walking distance to most sights, shopping, and restaurants. Breakfast was wonderful! Also loved the moody music.

Would only suggest better lighting and storage place for toiletries in the bathroom.
