Stunning rooftop view of the Acropolis, especially at night! The Jacuzzi was an added bonus. My room was small but cozy, perfect for solo travelers. Breakfast had a good variety of pastries, cold cuts, and yogurt. I highly recommend this hotel.

We loved staying at this hotel! The location was fantastic, situated in a great area that made it easy to reach the main attractions of this city. We could walk to the entrance of the Acropolis or easily catch a hop on hop off bus just a block away from the hotel. Plus, the rooftop bar and restaurant offered amazing views of the city and landmarks. The staff was also incredibly friendly and helpful, arranging transportation and providing recommendations for the best local ATM with great exchange rates. Breakfast was also a treat, included with our stay and featuring delicious options.
All was perfect.

The location was absolutely perfect, right next to all the major attractions. the staff was extremely friendly and helpful, making our romantic escape even more special. the rooftop terrace was a highlight, providing stunning views and a cozy atmosphere for enjoying a drink or two.
The rooms were a bit on the small side, especially the bathrooms. It was a challenge to shower without getting water on the floor due to the oddly short shower door.

I recently stayed at a hotel in Athens and had a great experience. The location was perfect, nestled near Philopappus hill in a nice shady clean area, with major sites just a short walk away. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a stunning view of the Acropolis. The service was friendly and attentive, and the breakfast offered a wide variety of delicious options. The hotel was easy to reach via subway from the airport, making it convenient for travelers.
The wifi connection was unreliable, which made it difficult to use the internet consistently.

We loved our week-long stay at this hotel! The location is perfect - just outside of the nightlife but easily accessible to everything via the metro. The staff is incredibly welcoming and helpful, and the breakfast was delicious with plenty of options. Our room was clean and well-presented, complete with air conditioning and a stunning view of the Acropolis from the rooftop patio. We also enjoyed relaxing in the spa after sightseeing.
Although the bathroom was clean and functional, it could use some updating to match the beautiful lobby and rooms.

We absolutely loved the location of this hotel! It was right in the heart of the city with easy access to all the major attractions and restaurants. the staff were also very friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. the rooms were clean and well-maintained, ensuring a comfortable stay throughout our city trip.
We did find the rooms to be a bit on the smaller side, which was a little inconvenient for our group. Additionally, the beds were not very comfortable, with thin mattresses on wooden bases.

I recently stayed at Herodion for a week-long trip to Athens. The hotel's location was ideal, allowing easy access to all the major attractions. The view of the Acropolis from the hot tub on the rooftop was even better than the pictures. The staff provided excellent recommendations and the breakfast had a wide variety of options. Additionally, the hotel was conveniently located near the hop on-hop off bus stop, making exploring the city a breeze. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Herodion.
I highly recommend this hotel.

We loved this place! The location was perfect, tucked away on a quiet street but still close to all the major sites. It was a short walk to the Acropolis and the Plaka district. The Acropolis museum was also right there, which was a big plus. The room itself was comfortable, with all the modern amenities we needed. The breakfast in the morning was fantastic, with a wide variety of options to choose from. We also had dinner on the rooftop and the views of the Acropolis were breathtaking. The restaurant was popular with both hotel guests and the public, so make sure to make a reservation. this hotel exceeded our expectations with its updated facilities and friendly staff.
Recommended for families.

I had the most incredible experience at this oasis in Central Athens. The location was absolutely perfect, with the Acropolis and Syntagma Square just a short walk away. The surrounding streets were filled with charming restaurants, shops, and art galleries. The staff at the hotel were exceptionally helpful, going above and beyond to ensure my stay was enjoyable. They even upgraded my room at the last minute. The rooftop terrace was a lovely place to relax, and the dinner at Point A was superb. The decor throughout the hotel was simple yet warm, and my room was exceptionally clean. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Athens.
