Monastery of Saint Ephraim

If you need to speak English staff is good but TV none, all in greek. Make your own coffee if before 7:30am and none after breakfast. Small rooms no wash cloths, but we were not disappointed for staying here!!

MiraMe was a pleasant surprise. The staff were wonderful, friendly and ever so helpful. When we arrived we were concerned to see the building next door under construction/renovation but turned out not to be a problem at all. We found our room to be very quiet, peaceful and had all we needed. Due to our plans changing we were not able to take advantage of the rooftop bar or restaurant but we did go up there to sample the anazing view of the Acropolis. The area in general was a big surprise, only a few minutes walk to Thisio metro station, the Ancient Agora, the Monastriaki flea market and countless great eating options with views overlooking the Agora. On the streets behind the hotel there are numerous restaurant options with a great vibe. The hotel is an easy short walk to many top locations in Athens. I highly recommend staying at MiraMe

Serviceable hotel, but nothing special. If you are looking for a mediocre hotel, there are many available at a lesser price point. If you are looking for a luxury hotel, it would probably be best to look elsewhere. Rooms were clean but lacked a logical layout. Staff was okay. Everything was fine, but nothing exceptional. Some basic amenities seemed lacking - no washcloths, a leaky shower, outlets pushed in so far they were impossible to use, breakfast was mayhem, half of the in room coffee pods are decaf and once you use a coffee pod, no replacement is offered, one of two tiny elevators was permanently out of service, etc etc. Bed and bedding not particularly comfortable. View was nice though, from the executive suite, though it can be a bit noisy due to proximity to the restaurant kitchen. I am sure this hotel perfectly suits a niche market, but I cannot think of what that niche would be.
