We loved this hotel. The extras you get at this hotel were amazing (toothbrushes, shaving kits, slippers, and Luffa’s all to take with you) Location was perfect walkable to Acropolis. Staff were friendly and helpful. Hotel restaurant was not open yet, so we had breakfast at the restaurant a few doors down it was delicious!

Pnina, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The rooms were clean and comfortable. It is in a very convenient location. We walked everywhere from the hotel. They don't have a restaurant, but our room came with breakfast at a near by restaurant. It was lovely and so much food. We were glad we took advantage.
Deborah, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very Nice Hotel

The hotel is a cute, boutique style hotel. Nice and clean, hotel staff is extremely nice and helpful. It has amazing views of the Acropolis. The only downside would be the construction next door. It is very loud early in the morning. The showers also splash water out on the floor. I would recommend this hotel as long as the noise doesn’t bother you.
Vickie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Would stay again!

The location was perfect and it was so easy to walk around the Plaka. The staff was so amazing. Before we arrived, they helped us organize all transfers. They helped get our luggage to our room as we arrived before the room was ready. They got us reservations at a lovely restaurant for dinner. They took us to the room. The room was more than comfortable. We very much enjoyed our stay and were sorry it was only for one night!
Laura, 1-night trip
