Early breakfast service and breakfast boxes available upon request
Dedicated concierge team provides local touring assistance
Multiple room configurations available, including family-connecting options
Cons

Some rooms face the internal courtyard rather than the city
“In my opinion, this family-run boutique hotel stands out for its prime location near the Acropolis and personalized service. The rooftop restaurant, when open, undoubtedly provides a memorable dining experience with its stunning views. While some may find the rooms compact, the proximity to major cultural sites and the comprehensive breakfast make it a worthwhile base for exploring Athens.”
