This is the finest luxury hotel in Athens. Great staff, central location, next to the parliament, train station and syntagma park with amazing views of the acropolis. My brother and I stayed at the property during our visit to Athens in the last week of November. Our room was upgraded and we had perfect view of the acropolis and the city.Room was were very cozy, the Hotel has a very historic feel and the decor compliments it. We stayed for two nights and had very memorable time. Breakfast was good and the staff was wonderful and very supportive. We had flight delay and checked in late night, Panasonic at the front desk was very helpful and went out of the way, great many thanks to him. Will always come back to this hotel. Its truly a happy place!
