I stay at this hotel several times a year for business and it is one of the best hotels in the Hilton chain - especially for a city hotel. The hotel went through a major overhaul prior to the 2004 Olympics, with large spacious rooms - all floors - I've stayed on the Executive level as well the lower levels and the rooms are basically the same, albeit the views from the higher floors, especially those facing the Acropolis are amazing. The gym is a true gym (not a small boxy hotel gym), with an indoor pool with waterworks spa and fitness classes - you do have to pay to use the gym (complimentary for Silver and Gold/Diamond HHonors members). The outdoor pool is large with ample seating.
The hotel has a great location, with the stylish Kolonaki area a 5 minute walk away - close to the main tourist attractions, metro right to the airport and business offices. The Executive lounge is one of the largest and best I have ever used, with an extensive breakfast, snacks during the day and at night. The Galaxy Bar on the rooftop is great for drinks, dinner and views (and one of Athen's late night places to be). Staff is very attentive and helpful.
The hotel is so nice that I try to add a weekend to my business trips as often as possible so that my wife can join me and we can relax at the hotel and use it as a central base to enjoy Athens. This hotel has it all for business and pleasure.
