Due to flights delays, we arrived at the hotel in the middle of the night. The person at the reception was courteous, clear and helpful. The room was small and the air conditioning was too cold, but it was very clean and quiet with a nice little terrace I cannot comment about the surrounding area, the service and the breakfast as we had to rush out of bed to catch our cruise ship. If I were to return to Athens, I would definitely go to this hotel again

Great location, every easy to go around to most of the important attractions. Front desk staff was very nice and friendly. We reached there around 8.30 am and were able to keep our bags and came back around 12pm, our room was ready. Breakfast was good, enough stuffs. Hop on bus stop is 5 minutes away. If we go there again we will stay there because of the location. and also recommend this hotel.

Good location for exploring the Plaka area of Athens and visiting the Acropolis. Liked that it was just a couple streets outside of the main tourist area. Great breakfast. Only one side of the hotel has Acropolis views, but I enjoyed our view of the city and rooftop restaurants.

Quiet, Friendly Boutique Hotel
A very nice, clean and friendly boutique hotel in an excellent location... you'll notice you are a 4 to 6 minute walk to most points of interest, while staying in a quiet area of town. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
