“Check-in was straightforward and we appreciated the late check-out.”

“Everything was very good with great service and a superb location next to bakeries and close to Megaron. The staff were very helpful and arranged private parking for us. Our room was a good size, functional, and had a nice terrace plus separate bedrooms and an old bath.”

“The location near cultural sites makes exploring easy.”

8.1Verified guest

“The hotel was really nice and clean. As it was overbooked, I was upgraded to a junior suite, which was a very pleasant surprise. The rooms were big enough, the bed was comfortable and large. The hotel is on a small quiet side street, yet a bus stop is not far away and the connection with the city centre was good. Staff were friendly and helpful.”

8.1Verified guest

“Excellent staff, gourmet breakfast, nice location and safe, right next door to the US Embassy. Very near transport facilities and shops.”

8.1Verified guest

“I had booked another hotel but didn't like the area, so I searched online and booked 3 nights here. I'm glad I did. From the moment I arrived, I received courtesy and attention. The location is safe and quiet. Every question was answered and I was advised about places that might not be safe. The staff were the best. The bed was comfortable after two weeks of sleeping on what felt like boxes with sheets in Italy and other parts of Greece. I would definitely recommend this hotel.”
