This property underwent an extensive refurbishment in 2004 and has been well maintained ever since, with ongoing small renovations each year, particularly in 2008. It prides itself on its attention to detail and personal touches. There are many pieces of art situated throughout the hotel demonstrating this.Great value in a very central location, this hotel is highly recommended. (1108/AC) This is a 10-storey modern block with balconies on each floor, fairly typical of the area although more upmarket and better maintained than most of its neighbors. This hotel has one of the best central locations for access to both the shopping and historic sightseeing areas of Athens. The Acropolis, Plaka and Psirri areas and main shopping streets are all within walking distance of the hotel. For those who wish to venture further afield or for airport and port arrivals, Omonia metro station is just around the corner (two minutes' walk).

This is a find, a keeper.

This is a well run hotel with excellent, well trained and attentive staff. The view of the Acropolis from the rooftop Restaurant and Bar is splendid. The rooms are comfortable and the room cleaning staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet is ample and tasty. I recommend that you give it a try. I am a repeat visitor and generally plan to stay there when on business in Athens.

Two of the very best souvlaki restaurants in Athens are within easy walking distance. Taxis are abundant and subway/tube connections get you anywhere

Nice place, bad neighbors

Great view of the Acropolis from my room balcony and the rooftop terrace. A/c worked but didn't drown out traffic noise. Prostitutes were abundant right around the corner and drug dealers and users were a couple of doors down from the hotel and also around the corner. Facility appeared clean but my room had bugs on the bed and walls. The hotel staff did not offer to reduce my hotel fare when I told them about the bug problem. Staff was very informative and helpful about dining options in the area and they called a cab for me when I departed.

Once you get past the prostitutes and druggies, the neighborhood is fine to walk in.

View of Parthenon worth stay

The hotel was a five minute walk from the Omonia metro (subway) station. The street on which the hotel is located was a straight walk (10-12 minutes) to the Acropolis. Great restaurants and shopping surrounded the hotel. The rooftop restaurant/bar had a breathtaking view of the Parthenon. And after sunset, the Parthenon is lighted making the view even more spectacular. The hotel staff acted more like relatives than the expected service staff at most hotels. They were friendly and sometimes brusk, but always caring. The elevators are quirky, the rooms clean and comfortable, the food delicious. Can't beat it for the price.
