Boutique hotel in fantastic location

8.0

The location was excellent, close to the Acropolis, the Plaka and Metro. Friendly and helpful staff. Great breakfast with fantastic views. Very comfortable bed. Quiet spacious room.

− Our room was let down by very poor lighting and lack of design consideration particularly in the bathroom where there were no hooks or rails to hang towels apart from in the shower!
