In brief

What works, what to weigh

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Price for the class — At £223 per night, some guests may find the rate higher than comparable options, especially given the modest room ratings for value.
  • Rooms can be smaller in standard categories — While suites and family rooms are praised, standard double rooms might feel compact for some travellers—one reviewer noted the standard double was comfortable but not large.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel has a strict no-pets policy, which may be a limitation for travellers with animals.

The location was ideal—we walked to a war memorial, and the hotel sat in a shopping area close to major historical sites, museums, central Athens, and the shopping street. It met our needs; we'd recommend it.”
