Great location in central Athens
Clean, comfortable and conveniently located in the heart of Athens. A few metres walk from Syntagma and Monastriaki squares and in the middle of the shopping - great location. Great breakfast with views of the Acropolis from the roof top dining room. Great personal service. Have stayed before, will stay again.
