Loved by Phaedra Hotel guests
"The absolute showstopper here is their rooftop terrace with a breathtaking view of the Acropolis."
"The best feature of our room was the small balcony that looked across to the Parthenon and Acropolis."
"It was so convenient and right in the middle of the action, plus a view of the acropolis from our window!"

The location IS very central. I could easily reach many attractions. The staff was helpful. The storage service after checkout was convenient.
The room was not soundproof. I could hear noises from the hallway. The air conditioner blew directly onto the bed. I caught a cold because of that.
