This is supposed to be a 5 * hotel , in which case - it fails. The lobby and top floor restuarant / bar are sumptuous and view of the Acropolis / Temple of Zeus are spectacular, however they seem to have run out of money for the rooms. They are reasonably sized but the bathrooms are dull with plastic... more

All is fine when you book and prior to arrival. Front desk staff were aloof to requests - then follow up emails land in a box entitled, "mailbox is full." Lovely pool, rooms were smaller than the website showed. My group used the hotel's transportation from the airport. My travel agent never received her commission for booking the rooms. Shame... more

My daughter and I stayed at the hotel from 27-30 October in a twin Executive room including breakfast and am delighted to say that it really lived up to expectations; and looked exactly like the one on the hotel website. The room was spotless, tastefully furnished and extremely comfortable. We had a balcony which opened to overlook the swimming pool.... more

The hotel has a very great location which is near the Plaka. I enjoy my stay while I was here, though the room is quite narrow. You might surprise by the lift, it's very small and hidden :D more

I thought the best thing about this hotel was the location. The second best thing was the views from the roof top restaurant, and the third best was the pretty lobby and reception area. The room left me feeling disappointed. I have never stayed at a five star hotel before, I booked it for the last night of my holiday... more

If you are only concerned about location, then this hotel is great! However, it is listed as a 5 star hotel and the rooms were comparable to a 2-star hotel. Size of the room was ok, but the Double bed was actually 2 twin beds pushed together, hard as a rock. The shower had good water pressure, but it was... more

We stayed in this hotel for one night as a stopover before we started a two-week island hopping trip in the Cyclades. I find it mind-boggling that it considers itself to be five star, the rooms are basic and although the location and some aspects of the communal areas are fairly pleasant (e.g. the pool) the staff were totally uninterested... more

I wish that we had stayed on a Room-only basis. The Hotel was in a fabulous location, just opposite the Temple of Zeus and in a safe area, well stocked with great shops and places to eat. We went for the basic (Executive Double) room, which had a huge bed (2 singles together) and a bath as well as a... more

We just stayed 2 nights at this hotel while visiting Athens. We had an executive room overlooking the pool, the room and bathroom were small but clean, the bed linens were clean and soft. The hotel foyer is nice (in a greek way) and so are the roof bar, dining room and pool. We had drinks at the roof bar... more
