Excellent view on the Zeus Temple and excellent location to visit Acropolis and Plaka. Expensive but not so good restaurant on the roof. Pool is ok. Rooms itself can not qualify for more then 4 star hotel. read more

I had a room to street back. Very noisy, but with the window closed okay. In the bath no outlet, in the room also rather little of it. the bed was huge and the mattresses great. it was always cleaned properly. breakfast I had the top on the seventh floor. The prospect is ingenious. The breakfast I would have for 5 stars expected. Not a only time there rolls. And if you like and much coffee drink likes must vieell time. guests were not much. read more

The hotel can compete with major world players in any case. At first we had a problem with the size of room package, but at the front desk helped us quickly and competently. The second room was then really 'Wow' too! There was nothing to complain about and the very large bed was a dream! The area around the hotel is not much to say, we didn't really have scouted out, but the location is very Central. Great pleasure had told us the friendly front desk, German languages, not, but the beach was great! read more

The journey from the airport is easy, with one change is 45 minutes in the hotel. I had was the room the pool side and was surprisingly quiet for the very central location of the hotel. A small balcony with chairs invited to warm up in the spring sun, the room itself was big enough, just the bathroom. On each case, you should visit the restaurant or the bar on the roof, the view was simply fabulous. Three minutes walk to the nearest metro-Bahn Station, the pedestrian area starts behind you either to the Acropolis can branch can continue, or ... but to the plaka and the numerous souvenir shops and taverns. read more

A bathroom without plug, enough said enough out over the whole hotel. The gym is in disrepair, the hotel has it on the website, but is quite Bold. The hotel is the central location, it is noisy. Room. The rooms at the pool/courtyard are seem to be smoking room. Please note a room near the elevators, otherwise you don't sleep. The best part is the 7. Floor with bar and restaurant. Really great view. If you didn't upgrade, and on the 7th Floor, above paid 25 euros per person. The view is great, but the breakfast is not worth it. read more

The hotel is excellent. I can't complain about the hotel itself. It is located across the street from the Hadrianstor and very close to the Acropolis. You Can't beat the views of this from the bar/roof terrace at night. The pool in the courtyard is not large, but if you're traveling during summer months, for quick refreshment probably suitable. The kitchen is very delicious, and really thoroughly recommendable anymore for all meals. There are only two tiny can't beat it. The storage space in the - large room is very limited. There is only one very narrow closet with few ... clothes hangers and only a compartment, which mostly from the safe "full" is. 2 The bathroom is suboptimal. The shower curtains are too short. So you can have a fact does not avoid flooding in the bathroom. The existing hair dryer is only limited performance. read more

    The room (executive room) are fine, although not 5 star standard. Air conditioning worked well, small balcony, comfortable beds, minibar (expensive), Flat-TV, ... Room cleaning ok. Although the bathroom very small, no amenities, never 5 stars, it was more like a three.

  • Gastronomy

    The breakfast was pretty standard. The breakfast room itself was very nice, completely wrong planned. Only large roundtables for 6 persons, which take advantage of unbelievable amount of space, so not enough seats. Breakfast for two in peace is not possible. Prices at the bar are very high.

  • Service
    2.0

    Unfortunately the big deficiency of this hotel, never 5 star standard. Ostensibly the front desk staff is friendly, the handling of complaints but a disaster. The services reserved our package were not met. Simple answer "not available on request". Only after asking duplication and fair tone were the total amount be supplied. Should a guest in a 5 star hotel not than Requestor must act! The question of whether we prior to our trip to the airport at night was anywhere could have a shower with a simple "no". Ask to duplication found the staff noticed that the pool 2 showers ... The room cleaning service was in order and the maid service was very friendly.

    The pool is very nice. Unfortunately too few pool chairs (10 piece), also on request, no extra beach chairs available although the square. Guests must be with towels sitting on the floor. Somewhere in the neighboring building there is also a fitness room, we didn't use it.

    The hotel is centrally located near the old city center (Plaka). All major attractions are within walking distance and easy to reach. It has its own parking garage. The transfer time to the international airport is depending on traffic and time of day between 45 and 90 minutes (distance about 30 km)
