Location is unbeatable—literally steps from the Acropolis Museum
The basement houses a preserved section of the ancient Themistoclean Wall
Rooftop restaurant 'Acropolis Secret' offers one of the best dinner views in Athens
Hızlı Özet: A solid, old-school grand dame that rests on its location laurels—expect 5-star prices for a 4-star experience with a killer view.
@Sonya_Heath tarafından değerlendirildi: I stayed here to be close to the history, but I didn't expect to find it inside the hotel! The basement ruins are incredible. My room was cozy and classic, but the real highlight was the rooftop terrace. Watching the sunset over the Parthenon was the best part of my trip.

The hype
Travelers adore the location and the rooftop vibes but frequently grumble about dated decor and the expensive breakfast.
Reality check
The 'Executive Room with Acropolis View' often disappoints guests who expected a panoramic vista from their bed—many are partial or obstructed.
You are a history buff who wants to see ancient walls inside your hotel
You prioritize location over modern design trends
You want a quiet, safe base in the upscale Makrygianni neighborhood

Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though some guests report missed dust in corners or under beds.

Odors & scents: Lobby smells fresh, but some corridors have had reports of a musty or 'old building' smell.

SSS & Gizli İpuçları
Rezervasyon yapmadan önce bilmeniz gereken her şey.
Is the pool heated?
No, and it can be quite chilly even in early summer. It's strictly seasonal (May-Sept).
How much is the city tax?
As of 2025, the 'Climate Resilience Tax' for a 5-star hotel is approx. €15 per night (March-Oct) and €4 per night (Nov-Feb).
Is the location walkable?
Extremely. You are 5 minutes from the Acropolis Museum and 10 minutes from the Plaka district.
Do all rooms have balconies?
Most do, but the size and view vary wildly. Standard balconies are small standing-room-only affairs.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, for dogs up to 10kg (22lbs). There is a fee of roughly €40 per night.

İçeri Sakıları
✨
Skip the hotel breakfast and walk 3 minutes to 'Takis Bakery' for the best cheese pie in Athens.
✨
Ask to see the 'Themistoclean Wall' in the basement even if you aren't staying—it's a mini-museum.
✨
The rooftop bar is open to non-guests; you can just go up for a drink to get the view without the €300 room rate.

💡The pool hours are split (closed 2:30 PM - 5:30 PM), which is exactly when you'd want to use it after a hot morning tour.

💡The elevators can be painfully slow during peak breakfast hours.
💡There is a 'resilience tax' payable on arrival that many booking sites don't include in the total.
💡The basement ruins are atmospherically lit and actually cooler than some outdoor sites.
