Clean room, good staff, excellent location, large property, reasonable price. Bed and room temperature were very comfortable. Breakfast selection was bland and substandard compared to comparable hotels. Decor is dated. Wifi and signal reception was poor and problematic. Need a big upgrade from the 80s decor at some point and stronger signal.

So breakfast was great. Jim is not usable and very minimal. It will help to have a nice gym in a smaller one on the property. Also, there was no coffee option in the room. We want to make tea in the middle of the night. A coffee maker is a must.

This classy hotel is gorgeous - and just steps away from the main tourist spots in the city center of Athens. It’s also an ideal choice if you’re running the Athens Marathon, just about a half-mile walk from the Olympic stadium at the finish line.
