This hotel was built for the Olympics and hasn't changed since. Very tacky decor in the rooms, although they are very clean and quite spacious. Staff was moderately helpful for a five star. Breakfast buffet was DELICIOUS with lots of variety, and dinner was also very tasty. Very reasonably priced, but disappointing when you're expecting a five-star hotel.

This is the second time i have stayed here, the last time being three years ago. Suddenly all of the room ameneties have gone, i had to ask for tea and coffee facilities. The pool was closed, apparently opening on the 15th. Four days after we were leaving. Previous time i stayed it had closed early, 1st October. The 5... More

Just stayed for three nights, and although the staff are friendly and helpful, sadly they cannot alone make this a five star experience. The pool was closed, although it is apparently due to open in 10 days, which was a shame as the temp was 28 degrees and sunny and no access was allowed to the pool or roof garden.... More

We booked this hotel through hotwire and if you are a non smoker beware. We had to search through several rooms to find one that wasn't smoked in recently. They do not have designated non smoking rooms. The exterior rooms do not have an attractive rooms. We booked this hotel as it had a pool, but it doesn't open until... More

Walls marked and with peeling wallpaper. Promotional materials and info sheets old, torn and dog-eared. CD player (CD player???) old with stained speaker covers. Data link did... More

A bit far away from the main attractions, but ultra-easy metro access and GREAT staff and breakfast.

I stayed in this hotel for one night during a businness trip in Athens. The hotel is ok, clean, good position near the metro station at karaiskaki square and has all the facilities a traveler need. The problem is the area which for many years modifited into a ghetto only for "foreign economic immigrants" and it is not so safe... More

This is by far the best hotel to stay at in Athens, it is situated perfectly in Karaisakaki square, which is central and very easy to get around. The open tour bus stops just outside and walking distance to syntagma and omonia. Brilliant and clean hotel with good facilities, nice bar too.

We booked this Athens hotel for 3 nights believing it was a good deal for a 5 star hotel but upon checking in we very quickly realised it may have been 5 star when it opened in 2004 (Olympic Games) but definatly the standards were not kept and today's rating doesn't deserve more than 3 stars ,it's worn out ,the...
