This was my second visit. I returned after a stay a year ago, this time bringing a friend along. Excellent location in a clean, safe, upscale neighborhood (although an extended family of transients moved into the adjoining park during our stay). It's in a former embassy on embassy row, with many key museums within walking distance. Metro stop is a couple of minutes away, with most major attractions within a couple of stops (the Athens subway itself, while online having three lines, deserves kudos). Staff are amazingly friendly and helpful. Breakfast is very good, filling, and healthy. Views of the Acropolis from the rooftop bar and even from our rooms' balconies.

Temperature control in the room was random. I'd turn the AC off since it would keep running even when the set point was reached. It would somehow turn itself on again. I repeated the experiment multiple times with the same result.

I loved fhe property. As it was for my birthday celebration, i was pleasantly surprised at the checkin as i got an upgrade of our room. Conveniently located, within walking distance to Syntagma square on a nice sunny day as well as 1 or 2 metro stops to all central locations. Hotel is freshly redecorated, looks very stylish and modern. Loved the whole library look in the cafe downstairs. Enjoyed the rooftop garden a bit. Staff was very helpful, friendly, kind and attentive. Their recommendation of the local taverna was amazing. Outstanding food and amazing ambience. Also accommodated our early checkout and our wishes for breakfast box. Just loved it. Enjoyed the option of having freshly cooked food for breakfast as well as divine freshly squeezed orange juice. they hold events every other night, we enjoyed music on one night and nice local Modernist wine on the other. All in all i loved it!

Aircon is regulated centrally, so found it a bit hot over night. Reception was kind enough to regulate it but it didn’t do much difference for me. Not crucial but a bit uncomfortable.

I chose the Modernist because of the excellent reviews about staff support - they were right! Everyone at the hotel was so kind and helpful. Pablos, Ian, and Zoe were so genuinely attentive with me and my parents. They helped us with information about parking, restaurants, taxis, and last minute reservations. Also: great location near the metro, quiet and safe neighborhood and excellent breakfast. The terrace was a great place to relax with a view of the Acropolis after exploring all day. 10/10 would stay here again!

I wish the room’s thermostat was easier to use, but the front desk staff were super nice about adjusting it. :-)

The property is incredibly modern and thoughtful in its approach to sustainability and guest comfort. The breakfast was very good and the products in the bathroom were good and it’s refreshing to see conditioner as well.

For the price and the location there are certain aspects that I think could be improved, for example there are no robes in the rooms and the slippers are very flimsy. The breakfast could be extended until 11am and the rooftop has amazing views but no permanent bar/cafe, which is such a missed opportunity given views and location.

Liked · The breakfast was amazing and the staff so welcoming and helpful. We enjoyed everything about our stay and especially appreciated the room upgrade on our return from a weekend away. The hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood with easy access to the Metro. The rooftop was a lovely place to start and end our day, watching the sun set behind the Acropolis, refreshing beverages, light meals, and the good cheer of the bartender. This will always be our home away from home in Athens. Thank you for everything!

The hotel is beautifully decorated with modern interiors, location is great in clean neighbourhood close to central district, the beds are comfortable and rooms are spacious and filled with all the amenities you require (slippers, teas, coffees etc). The breakfast is tasty with many options so you will not get bored! The best part is exceptional service, the staff is outstanding and made a lot of effort to make our trip special as we celebrated my partners birthday, would definitely return and recommend the hotel.

Superb modern room, fun mini bar with house pre mix cocktails at reasonable prices Excellent check in experience Breakfast buffet is one of the best we've ever had anywhere in the world Double balcony meant we could have some excellent fresh air through the room Location is within walking distance to everything you need to do in Athens - Plaka, the Partheon, Parliament, tomb of the unknown soldier/changing of the guard, museums, art galleries. Cookooveya Restaurant 5 minutes walk away was outstanding. PT is right next door and we caught the tram bus to the Archeological Museum and the train down to the port area The street next to the hospital 5 minutes walk away has a heap of bakeries for a cheap pick up of coffee, cakes, pastries, rolls etc and there is a local supermarket 5 minutes walk away. The staff are really helpful with information regarding anything you need Finally the roof top is amazing with clear views to the Acropolis and a fun old style phone to dial direct to the bar down stairs for your cocktail order

Everything was great. Super location. We visited Syntagma/the Plaka area/ Lycabettus / and a few museums all by foot.The room - extra large on the sixth floor - was splendid and perfect for the three of us. Access to a jacuzzi on our terrace with views to Lycabettus and the Acropolis were a huge bonus. Most importantly, truly lovely, welcoming staff on arrival and throughout our stay made this a very special place. We would only come back here every time we are back in Athens. Thanks to everyone for making this such a great stay!

Nothing - everything was perfect!

The staff are friendly and helpful. Also a queer positive venue. So appreciated the diversity of guests and staff. Very inclusive from conservative older folks to queer identifying young people.

It was unclear how housekeeping prioritized the cleaning of rooms. I left my notice on my door to be serviced at 9 am and it was consistently not serviced until after 4 pm. It was so hot in Greece that by 3:30 pm I needed respite from the days activities and heat and would have to wait till 4:30 or 5 pm to get into my cleaned room.

Excellent location, you can actually walk everywhere (if you want) or take the metro which is 2minutes away. Fantastic design and atmosphere form the 1st step into the hotel, the staff extremely helpful and understanding not only to the customer but also of the style the are presenting. Cosy premises. Rightly sized rooms, spotlessly clean, fantastic modern design with art nouveau touches, Fantastic bathroom with great pressure, free coffee capsules, great bedding (seriously though) and the cosy warm feeling of being at home. Log on to your apple TV or Netflix when you want and relax. Breakfast freshly made and seriously excellent coffee. The soundproofing works fine. Definite return for me as I travel to Athens frequently

No negative remarks whatsoever.
