We booked a Deluxe room via the FHR program. At check-in, Cleo was so kind and welcoming from the moment we arrived, and all perks were clearly explained with a room upgrade to a 6th-floor Deluxe with two balconies and a direct view of the Acropolis. The room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The bathroom was huge (both bath and shower) and fully stocked with everything from toothbrushes to mouthwash. We also found several welcome amenities waiting for us. Having an espresso on the balcony facing the Acropolis was a highlight! The service was incredible and fast. Every request was handled quickly by a friendly, professional team. We tried the restaurants as well. The Tudor Hall: we had excellent daily breakfast with plenty of choices. We also had dinner here (1 Michelin star as of Feb 2026) and the food was exceptional. GB Roof Garden - at the sister property next door: we were equally impressed by the food and service. Worth a visit for sure. The location is excellent too, right on Syntagma Square. This was an amazing stay. If we return to Athens, we will definitely choose the King George again.
