    This is what you're really getting

    A charming hotel with an excellent rooftop view of Acropolis. The breakfast selection is vast, with both Greek and international delights. The staff here provides really good assistance. They even packed breakfast boxes for us. A wonderful stay, though some guests experienced minor room quality issues. Don't miss the delicious cocktails from the rooftop bar!

    friendly staff

    Family with children a nice place to stay

    We had breakfast every morning, and let me tell you, that spread was something else! The staff were attentive, just making sure you had everything you needed, really seemed like I was taken care of. There was a rooftop bar with fine views.

    It wasn't cheap, but honestly, it was still worth it.

    good breakfast
    flying insects
    room service

    The rooftop terrace stole the show for me, with amazing views of the Acropolis, especially during sunset. The breakfast spread was good. I loved the freshly made options and the warm, friendly staff made meals even better. My room was clean, stylish, and equipped with quality amenities. I appreciated the the body milk moisturizer. The room had some flying insects, likely due to its proximity to the park, a bit off-putting. A wider room service menu would add some great variety.

    risotto
    rooftop bar
    friendly staff
    limited storage
    small hangers

    The risotto at breakfast was a delight, bursting with flavors that took me straight to culinary heaven! Plus, the rooftop bar-perfect for evening cocktails with a killer view-was a real treat. Not to mention the friendly staff who seemed to genuinely care about making my stay nice.

    Now, about that closet situation-it's a bit of a jam when you've got larger luggage and minimal hangers. Not everyone's a solo traveler, right? Still, it didn't take away from the stay's charm, but some extra storage would shine brighter.
