Perfect Location
The roof top view is incredible. The location of the hotel cannot be beat. Close to everything including the Metro. The staff seemed genuinely interested in helping whenever asked for assistance. May only suggestion is to add umbrellas on the roof top deck as it gets very warm in the direct sunshine.

The front desk staff were very nice. The only reason why they did not get a five star was because the restaurant staff were not really that competent or friendly.

One Night in Athens
Great location, very helpful front desk , fabulous rooftop bar . We spent just one night here to see the highlights of Athens. It was very good just a few things prevented it being excellent. We were on the 5th floor , however everything was audible from the streets , which went on most of the night., also often from the rooms next door. So we didnt sleep well. They offer some gluten free things at breakfast, I dont know how old they were but they tasted extremely gone off , they were individually wrapped in plastic film I suspect for a long long time. Im also have lactose intolerance but I can like many people have sheep or goats milk products , it would be so helpful to know if the feta cheese and fresh cheese was made from cow or sheep, something easy, cheap and quick to write in front of it at breakfast , would probably help a lot of people as this intolerance is so common.

Breakfast ( scrambled eggs baked beans and jar of tiny hot dog sausages ) was stone cold as burners ran out way before we got to sit down and eat our breakfast. Probably lit them at 7 and they ran out at 8. We sat down at 9.15 Choice of hot food was limited Fruit was all out of a tin Expensive stay for a 3 Star hotel
