“The rooftop garden and pool offer unexpected panoramic views, a memorable counterpoint to the surrounding city. Family-friendly rooms are available, and I noticed its location provides ready access to both metro stations and historical attractions such as the National Archaeological Museum. While some may find aspects of the property a touch dated, the combination of neoclassical design and budget-conscious rates presents a compelling option in Athens.”
