“A Little Gem in Athens”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 23, 2012

A fairly new small family run boutique style hotel in a great location just about five minutes walk from Syntagma. In a quiet side street, near to bars, shops and restaurants and the old Plaka area. Afrodite was most welcoming and very helpful when we had a problem on our two night stay. A lot of attention and effort has been made to ensure comfort in a stylish atmosphere, it felt just like staying in a very comfortable home from home! The varied buffet breakfasts including homemade preserves and pastries were delicious, along with freshly brewed coffee. As we travel frequently through Athens we are sure to stay there again and would thoroughly recommend this hotel.

Room Tip: Booked a standard room which was a bit small for us as we work when we travel. Beautifully decorated...

“the perfect place to stay.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 30, 2012

I stayed to this beautiful hotel for two nights. Everything was perfect. It was very clean and well decorated. I really loved the home made ''pitas'' and jam served for breakfast. Thanks to the owner for her kindness and the lovely homemade jam and liqeur she offered to us, before we left.

“Beautiful and welcoming”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 27, 2012

I travel to Athens quite a lot and have finally found the perfect hotel. I was staying nearby and went in to see if I could see some of the rooms as I had seen it on the internet but had booked elsewhere where I have previously stayed. I was fortunate to be shown through several of the hotel rooms by one of the family owners and I could have stayed in any one of them. The attention to detail was fantastic and the decor of the rooms was chic but homely and warm at the same time. The breakfast room was very light and the selection of food was great. The standard of the hotel was 5 star and being a small family owned hotel you could tell it was very well cared for and the family had put their heart and soul into the completely and newly renovated premises. Great location and 5 minute walk from Syntagama and to the Plaka. After comparing this hotel to the others I have stayed at I can rate it as excellent. Finally a sweet home away from home.

“The 'wow' factor in Athens!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 6, 2012

At last an Athens hotel with the style and attention to detail that you would usually only find in Nafplion or our ski resorts. A nice muted palette throughout, neo-classical with retro touches, excellent decor. The best shower I have experienced in Greece without exception (waterfall and handheld, large cubicle), Apvita luxury amenities, over 25 channels on the tv, superb beds. My street front room had an ample balcony, clever insect screens on the doors and at night was absolutely silent..a quiet street and very good soundproofing. I have stayed at or visited friends in many hotels in central Athens and rate this one the best currently available for location (for tourists), comfort, service and value. If I was offered this hotel or the supposedly 5 star St George Lycabettus, even if they were the same rate I would chose the Sweet Home Hotel first; this little gem is less than half the price though! Manager is exceptionally helpful and switched on too. Book now, this one will be full all year round.
