Historical Delphi One Day Tour with Arachova Stop & Expert Guide
"This hotel was a little out dated but for the price was right what I expected. I was only there for 2 nights but it was perfectly located near the Acropolis and all the restaurants. The best part was the breakfast. It was included and had such a huge variety of foods. The dining room was also lovely. The room was clean but just ordinary."
"Words cannot describe how perfect this place is. The room was fantastic and the rooftop hot tub overlooking the Parthenon was unreal. It was clean and the beds were comfortable. It was in the perfect location and breakfast was wonderful. I would stay here again and again."
"We stayed here our last night in Athens and felt disappointed with the overall experience. We had expected way more from the “exceptional” reviews - but just felt the hotel was mediocre. Our views were “meh”, the breakfast was just okay, the noise through the windows was terrible, room felt stuffy and the elevators were almost in-usable with 2 people with luggage.
It is close to many restaurants and shopping which was a plus, and we did get a complimentary bottle of wine with our stay."
"The property location was great and very near to many things. Room was small but to be expected in the old town area. Very clean. Breakfast was good. Check in was easy!"
"We did not spend a lot of time at the hotel since we did an early check out. The location of the hotel is amazing since you can walk everywhere, but at the same time at night was extremely noisy and it was difficult to sleep."
