Unbeatable location in a fairly nice area very close to the flea market, the Acropolis and Monastiraki square and all tourist attractions. Elegant standard room, exceptionally comfortable beds.
Wi-Fi was quite slow.

Stunning view from room and rooftop bar. Whilst obviously a converted building and a simple product, it had been finished to a high standard. Good sheets and comfortable bed. Excellent service in bar on a Friday night despite a wedding taking place and lots of trendy local customers!
Breakfast orange juice was actually squash but reception staff mentioned that this would be changed very soon- hotel only open 8 weeks.

The food scene here is great! The rooftop restaurant is a culinary gem-brekkie with a view of the Acropolis is lovely. Plus, the local eats nearby, like Ta Karamanlidika tou Fani, had me feasting like a true Athenian foodie. The vibe was buzzing and the service was on point!
I wasn't a fan of the rooftop bar's popularity-sometimes the line to get upstairs was a real pain. It felt more like a hotspot for outsiders rather than a chill spot for hotel guests. If you're with kids, just be prepared for the chaos of the crowd!

The hotel has an unforgettable view on the Acropolis. The rooms are spacious and the decoration is tastefull. The staff is so helpfull and nice. We arrived at 2 oclock in the middle of the night after hours of delay on our yourney and the staff gave us a superior room with a balcony and view on the Acropolis. The bar on the roof is a great place to have a cocktail and breakfast is served on the roof.
A lot a noise during the night. The hotel is at Monastiraki, the heart of nightlife in Athens. Screaming taxidrivers, singing and drunk people disturb your sleep during the night and unfortunately the windows are not super isolated. We slept with earplugs. Breakfast is basic for a hotel of that standard.

Perfect location in the heart of Athens. Brand new hotel, beautiful view from the roof bar, where breakfast is served. Babybed was ready when we arrived. Perfect hotel for a visit to Athens.
The elevators are small and slow.

would be happy to recommend for a two-day stay
Spacious room, amazing view, breakfast buffet that had everything you could think of, with fresh coffee served at the rooftop garden, and the location was ideal, just steps away from the metro for easy access to the airport.
Nothing all excellent

New, clean, good sized (for an inner city hotel) room and bathroom. Helpful, friendly staff. Great view from the breakfast restaurant - of the Monastiriki square and of the Acropolis. We had a similar view from our room - as we had requested when booking. Good location in the heart of old Athens with ancient sites and shopping within easy walking distance. Being next to the Metro station (on the airport line) makes it really easy to travel to and from.
There is nothing about the hotel that we disliked enough to stop us going back. The lift is a bit small and slow so be prepared for a delay at times (E.G. checkout time). Bed pillows are fat (even their small pillows) so if you like a very thin pillow you might have to ask specially for one (don't know if they have them). The noise from the square is minimally intrusive in the room - really no more than you would expect in a busy part of the city.

Location, location, location. Right on Monastiraki which is very central with many of the main attractions within easy walking distance. Friendly staff who went above and beyond to ensure I had a pleasant stay. The biggest asset to this hotel is the view from the 6th floor bar with an uninterrupted view of the Acropolis. Great for winding down with a cocktail watching the sunset. Recommended highly.
Although you can pay extra for a good view towards the Acropolis, in my slightly cheaper room, the window overlooked a pretty nasty looking side street. Was not a major problem though.
