Athens hotels in Plaka

Pros: Great restaurant, excellent view, friendly stuff.

Pros: Awesome location, clean, friendly staff, great view on Acropolis

Cons: Small gym

Pros: Everything was amazing, the pool, the food and the view, the location; but most of all, the really lovely staff.

Cons: Pool not open till 11am, I know people need to have their breakfast in peace, but it’s good to wake up and have a (quiet) swim.

Pros: Breakfast selection is great, very comfortable beds, location is great, access to the sauna on the one rainy day we had

Cons: Requested a double bed on booking but instead got 2 singles. 1 lady on roof top bar was unprofessional and rude.

Pros: The Electra Metropolis is a 10 minute walk from Syntagma Square Metro station - the heart of Athens - and the surrounding streets teem with cafés and restaurants. The room was large and wonderfully quiet, the bed extremely comfortable and the bathroom luxurious. Pleasant, highly-professional staff.

Pros: New and feels cutting edge. Good location right in the heart of everything. A/C in the rooms works well on hot summer days.

Cons: The way in which the hotel is new and cutting edge feels like it was put together very quickly, and in a few years time won't be that nice. Showers seem to leak water all over the bathroom. Service at the restaurant/bar on the rooftop is mediocre.

Pros: Excellent location, modern "urban" feel to the hotel, amazing view and food on the roof bar/restaurant, friendly helpful staff

Pros: very well located close to many bars , restaurants and touristic attractions. I liked the view from the top floor.

Cons: I didn‘t like that to go to the pool you have to go through the restaurant that is open for anyone outside the hotel who wants to come in. I don’t feel comfortable with that. I also didn’t know when i booked that the spa area was closed ( for Covid) . It would have been better to know it before.

Pros: Amazing location. Very professional staff. Beautiful hotel, amazing rooftop view, great spa facilities, luxurious rooms/bathrooms (and spacious), clean

Cons: The rooftop restaurant is terrible! The view is incredible. The food there is as bad as it gets. Take in the view during the free breakfast; the meals they serve there at all other times is not worth paying for (it is disgusting, masquerading as "haute cuisine" The spa is nice but lacks any written guidelines to ensure guest tranquility. Letting children use the spa and having no rules relating to that can ruin the experience for other guests. Kids shouldn't be in the hot tub/heated pool area unsupervised. Nor should they be learning how to swim or doing water tricks. It's supposed to be peaceful. Children shouldn't ruin experience for other guests. We couldn't use sauna or steam room because it was overrun with young kids. I have no problem with children but the lack of any rules or restrictions as it pertains to the spa is really problematic at Electra Metropolis. as a result my enjoyment of facilities was extremely limited.

Pros: Great roof bar with view of Acropolis. Also in a central location to tourist stuff.

Pros: Very centrally located.comfortable bed, good breakfast a lot of choices.very nice staffs

Cons: There is only one elevator and it is very small. We ended up using the stairs frequently.

Pros: This is a respectable hotel, that gives good basic services to it's guests. It's overall advantage is it's location. Stay at Plaka Hotel and all of Athens is easily available to you.

Cons: I have nothing to complain about.

Pros: The Plaka Hotel is the best place to stay in Athens. It is centrally located and has a spectacular view of the Acropolis from the rooftop patio. It is close walking distance to the major tourist sites, shops and restaurants. Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and have air conditioning. Breakfast is a must do in the morning. While enjoying your delicious breakfast, you can get friendly information and advice from your hostess. First week of May is a perfect time to visit Athens. Temperature is around 24C to 27C. Visit the National Archaeological Museum (10 Euros) and Athens Academy of Arts if you like to take pictures of statues. Laundry service is also available.

Pros: The friendliness of the staff and how helpful they were all the time; they gave us tips to move around and help us to keep our luggage even when we've already checked out. The hotel is well located with many important places (most-visited historic attractions) at walking distance; also great was having a convenient small market next door where we could get fruits, beverages, baked goods, etc. The breakfast were very good, as well as the views from the roof lounge.
