We had a room with a view of the Acropolis, which was very nice. The room itself was clean and functional, but the bathroom was a little narrow. The folks at the front desk were very helpful and the breakfast was pretty good. We spent only two nights in Athens, primarily visiting the Acropolis and the related museum, so the location worked out great.

Stayed here three nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful, booking tours and giving directions. Location is excellent - just a few minutes walk to restaurants, markets and the main shopping strip. Room was standard - clean with nice amenities and a great view of the Acropolis but a little over heated for my liking. Breakfast was nice with a variety of western and greek food in comfortable and pleasant surroundings. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it as a comfy and easy place to stay.

Stayed at Plaka Hotel from January 4th - 7th 2013. Wow, where do I begin? This hotel was perfect from start to finish. The location is perfect for getting around to all the sights of Athens. I researched the hotel on Trip Advisor before I came and I wondered how there were barely any bad reviews. Well, I was shown at the hotel! The staff are so nice and eager to help their guests in any way possible. It's a small hotel, therefore it is intimate and the staff really get to know you by face. We booked a triple room which included three single beds, in which were more than comfortable. Wonderful pillows and lush bedding was a big plus. I don't think I've ever seen a hotel so clean! It was soo clean and nice and pleasant. I could go on all day saying how much we loved it. The bathroom was nice and modern. The room, as it was a triple was on the smaller side, but definitely functional. Now let's talk about the breakfast. WOW! Amazing amazing yummy yummy breakfast. Delicious REAL orange juice served, along with a coffee machine making all types of fancy hot drinks. A delicious selection of cheeses and vegetables, including absolutely wonderful feta cheese, which is a must when in Greece. Of course, there was good and yummy eggs and sausage as well. I was so impressed with the attention to detail over all especially with the breakfast. Everything that is intended to be hot was very hot, and everything that was intended to be cold was ensured to be cold - Usually on ice. I say this because for a 3* breakfast I found it to be above and beyond excellent. Without a doubt the best breakfast in a hotel I've ever had - And I've stayed in some of the best. There was PLENTY more food than what I've mentioned above as well. A very nice touch is that hot drinks and fruit and cookies were served until about 5 PM every day, complimentary. A very nice touch! I don't know what else to honestly say about this place - I am generally extremely EXTREMELY picky and quite the snob when it comes to hotels - Plaka Hotel exceeded my expectations and I hope to return to Greece soon just so I can return to this gem of a hotel. Thank you to all the staff who work so hard to keep this hotel the amazing place that is it. You are doing an incredible job! Keep it up, because you are more than worthy of your impeccable score here on Trip Advisor! MY TIP: Try the oranges they serve during breakfast and throughout the day! I've been many places in the world - These are the most delicious oranges I've ever tasted in my life!

Loved everything about this hotel. The staff were all helpful and friendly, the room was clean, the beds were very comfortable and we had a fabulous view of the Acropolis. It's in an ideal location near most of the historical sites and there are loads of shops, bars and restaurants nearby and the metro so it's easy to get around Athens.
The roof terrace has a view of the Acropolis and they don't mind you taking drinks up there when the bar is closed.
The breakfast has a good variety of food. The greek yoghurt with honey is the best!
