    The shower over the bath was very difficult. Lack of power points to dry my hair was ridiculous.

    Nothing that we didn’t like.

    Location is wonderful. Great views from the restaurant and bar. The pool is a must for a hot Athens day, it is great to go out and come back to a swim in the pool.

    The hotel was lovely, but felt dated and over priced for what it offered. Additionally, the staff felt cold and had a "can't quite be bothered" than a welcoming feel. Admittedly, I had just come from smaller hotels in Northern Greece, so my friendly staff expectations were high walking in - but with some minor adjustments it could really help make the stay feel less steep for the price.

    I had a rental car so the garage under the hotel was a must for me. For this reason I would travel back to this hotel. Additionally, the pool and breakfast were fantastic. So grateful to have both in the heart of the city.

    The room and especially the bathroom should need to be renovated as it is not to the level of a 5 star hotel.

    Location and rooftop are excellent.

    The rooftop bar and restaurant was spectacular in the evening. Late night dinner and fine wine, with great service was a wonderful way to end a long day, open late which was very convenient. Although the rooms may be slightly dated they were clean and comfortable and the location cannot be beat. We loved being close to the busy busy parts of the city but not directly in them. The subway system was convenient and there are plenty of delicious places to eat near the hotel. We virtually walked everywhere from the hotel.

    We were suppose to have a pool view room which we didn’t and when asking reception, they were quite rude. The staff appeared to judge us as we were in singlets and shorts as we’d been travelling a while and clearly did not want to give us the time of day.

    Walking distance from all of the historic sites. Great location for evening restaurants and bars. Beautiful pool area for relaxing on a hot day. Our room was a little tired with poor aircon. My parents stayed in one of the Amazing panoramic rooms and I would highly recommend. Fantastic views from rooftop restaurant and breakfast.

    The staff were not very friendly, especially at check in. There was a creepy lifeguard who swam with the guests which is not typical. He was not "lifeguarding" in any way. Maybe he was just there to give guests towels. The pool hours were reduced (11-7). I would have liked the pool to be open and available to swim in the early morning hours so that I could swim laps before it got crowded. The dinner menu was not great so we ate elsewhere. Plenty of restaurants nearby.

    I really liked the room. We had the king size with acropolis view and terrace. The location was perfect. Breakfast was good.

    Perfectly situated in the heart of Athens, the hotel is within a 2-minute walk of the Temple of Zeus, tucked under the Acropolis, and near the National Garden. A rooftop restaurant adds evening atmosphere with panoramic views.
