“Wi-Fi is NOT free. Shame !”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 10, 2013

This is a really wonderful hotel. The lobby is impressive and the cafeteria in the ground floor is vey quiet and nice. Staff was willing and polite. Our room was spacious and clean but the beds were not so comfortable as anticipated. The breakfast room was modern and very relaxing. The breakfast was a real delight: lot of fresh, well cooked and presented food (with emphasis given in Greek cuisine) in a great variety.
What spoiled my good impressions was that the internet was NOT free (15 € per day !!!). I find quite unacceptable for a hotel of such a class and price tag not to offer free wi-fi to its clients.

“Good stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 28, 2013

Enjoyed my stay at the Divani. Reception and bell hop were pleasurable and welcoming with good English. Amenities are a bit dated but they are clean. Had breakfast and dinner at their restaurant and found them of good quality and value. Location was perfect as you can walk to Syntagma Square if you are inclined and the Metro station was a short walk away. Would recommend this hotel to anyone.

Room Tip: They have a bar with a good view of the Acropolis. Ask for a room overlooking the Acropolis.

“Tom&Juliette”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 7, 2013

Very good hotel with wonderful breakfasts. Quiet for sleeping and clean. Location good; about 25 minute walk to foot of the Acropolis. Service was of a high standard and we were in both a normal room one night before a complimentary upgrade to a suite. Suite was great except for a leaky shower. Perhaps a touch overpriced relative to some hotels in slightly better locations but would recommend staying here.

“Friendly hotel personel and good place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 7, 2013

We stayed at this hotel for the new year holiday. Our suit is looking to Acropolis and we enjoyed very much to spend time at the room. I recommend this hotel for the super friendly hotel staff and very clean rooms. The hotel is a little bit far from the center but hotel offers shuttle to Sintagma square. We even attended to the new year eve gala dinner. It was very enjoyable and we are happy to meet 2013 at this hotel.

“Great service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 22, 2012

Divani Caravel stands out for its spotless service, trully deserving of it being part of Leading Hotels of the World. I stayed ther twice and the rooms were incredibly large and comfortable. Good breakfast as well. That being said, the hotel could use some urgent renovations. Somethings are almost laughable, such as the cassette player and the fax machine in the room. TV could also be upgraded (you would expect a LCD or LED instead of one of late 90's). Those are, however, minor flaws compared with the overall experience, which largely surpasses the expectations you could have considering the fairly reasonable price.
