Best part of this hotel is the amazing view of the Acropolis from the balcony. The swimming pool in the basement is quite small and a bit dated with staff not too engaged. Hotel is generally nice and staff at reception is very friendly supportive and genuinely pleasant. … read more

Stayed for two nights with two children (3 + 8 years) and we were thrilled at Electra Palace. The hotel has a perfect location for everything within walking distance. The rooms (2 double rooms with connecting door) were top. The roof terrace has a pool with a view of the Acropolis, just awesome. The hotel has an underground car park, twelve euros per day. We had booked with breakfast, was OK. All in all, an ideal base for exploring Athens … read more

The breakfast was ok, without to impress and served in a large room overlooking the garden court serves. The staff was limited in his doing the basics, friendliness … read more
