Hotel is walkable to Syntagma metro and bus X95 for direct transport to/from the airport. Roof has a very good view of the Parthenon and Lycabettus Hill (must see during the day and night). Breakfast is plentiful with various options including Greek specialities from 6:30am-10am. Room is modern and clean with body wash and shampoo in dispensers, a bath robe, slippers, a small refrigerator and a safe box. Luggage storage is in the basement with option to pay 2 euro for a locked locker or leave it in the corner unmanned (staff will not give you a ticket for pick up, so it's at your own risk). Close to a KFC, McDonald's and gyro stores. On Sunday, starting around 10:40am, walk over to watch the guards march down the side of the Parliament building to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier for changing of the guard. I would stay here again.

Excellent value!
Very nice value stay! Smelled cigarette smoke the first night, but after that, the stay was very nice. Amazing location and clean room! I did not like the breakfast options but there is lots to eat in nearby restaurants.

Great location, in amongst lots of eateries, the area was alive with activity! Not far to walk to a supermarket and the markets. And only about 15-20 minutes walk from the Acropolis. Yummy breakfast :) The only down side was the bathroom was absolutely teeny tiny!

Nice short stay, but dated hotel.
Early check in was no problem without requesting it. Excellent location and helpful staff. Bed was ok as were the pillows. But the hotel appears very dated, the room and bathroom clearly require an upgrade, as do the the halls and the lift. The room door would not lock, there was no signage posted anyway for emergency and fire escaping, nor a floor plan.
