Excellent hotel. Great location. The view from the rooftop was spectacular!!! Easy to walk to the Acropolis and Parthenon, and Metro, and buses to the Airport, if needed. So many restaurants and great shopping nearby. Room was great. Just what I needed. Good selection for breakfast. The staff and hospitality was nothing short of excellent. Thank you for a great stay.

Very good selection for breakfast. Plenty of food . Good staff - cheerful and regularly clearing tables at peak time .
The only thing that my husband was let down by was the toaster . It only toasted on 1 side and after 2 attempts the bread was warmed but not toasted . He gave up . His cherry jam was just a thick red colour syrup .
The staff was very accommodating after a bicycle race blocked streets. They worked hard to get us a taxi to get to the cruise terminal after Uber drivers continued to cancel our rides.
The staff was very welcoming. Breakfast had everything you would want. Room is a bit small, but we expected that. Bed was clean and comfortable. Room was clean. Dinner on rooftop was wonderful and spectacular view of the Acropolis. Fairly busy area, but did quiet down after midnight. Hotel is older, but kept up nicely
The hotel is very clean, conveniently located to the areas sites and the staff is quite attentive. The rooftop has a fantastic view of the Acropolis. I recommend staying here

We had a very nice stay. The staff was polite and helpful. They tried to accommodate the fact that we arrived early. The room was clean but the "wardrobe" has hangers that were unreachable unless you were very tall. No average person could hang anything in there. The breakfast was copious and varied. Nothing to complain about. The location is perfect too!
We had a great three nights at the Plaka Hotel. The rooms were nice, clean and the bed was super comfortable. The staff were very helpful and always friendly. If we are ever able to travel to Athens, we will stay here again.
Room was very clean. Great location.
We were on the 6th floor. It sounded like someone was moving furniture continuously above us until about 10:30. Avoid that floor if possible. Also, the restaurant filled up and we weren’t able to eat dinner at the hotel as planned. We even mentioned it to the staff. Did not realize a reservation would be needed.
I suggested some sugar free items for breakfast menu should be available.
Dinner in rooftop restaurant was exceptional.
Staff was friendly and informative
To use the Roof top as an amenity with all day access is FALSE! All hotel guests get kicked out before 6pm when the restaurant opens!
They lock the access door and no entry thru restaurant without dinner reservations! Totally false advertising!
Breakfast is average. Also in there they clean your table at 10am even if you are still sitting there? lol This was our third stay and will not book this hotel again Plenty of similar hotels in the same block or so. This stay was 5 nights for about $1000. With no evening access to advertised rooftop.
Having a bar is a nice touch however even with drink purchase we got chased out after 45 minutes! All tables have reserved signs starting at 4:45. Shameful!
