“This stylish retreat sits in the vibrant heart of Athens, mere steps from Syntagma Square. What stands out is its rooftop bar-restaurant, with stunning views of the Acropolis.

The breakfast was very nice. The rooftop restaurant offers a view of the acropolis. The food and beverages were great.
The bar downstairs closed too early. The staff seemed rather rude when I asked for a drink. The rooftop bar was lovely. The service was too slow and I waited almost 45 mins to be served.
