I was thrilled with the spacious room that offered a fabulous view of the Acropolis and was large enough for me and my two adult daughters. The hotel staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable. However, the dining experience was just average despite the unbeatable view of the Acropolis from the rooftop terrace. The location couldn't have been better for exploring the main sites on foot, but keep in mind it might come at a slightly higher price.

I have to say, my stay was quite a mixed bag. On one hand, the hotel was incredibly clean and soundproof, which was fantastic considering its prime location just above Monastiraki square. However, the lack of a view and the light shaft instead of a window left a bit to be desired.
