Good hotel for a city break

Room was clean and comfortable. The staff weren’t particularly friendly and breakfast was okay. The hotel is a good location and quiet. Couldn’t really hear neighbours, which is good.

8/10 Very good

We arrived early and were very grateful to be given an early check in. The room was fine. It is basic, but was clean and comfortable. The shower and shower products were amazing. The breakfast was good. Overall nothing outstanding, but good for one night. The staff were pleasant and helpful. Lots of places to eat nearby.

Lovely boutique hotel in the heart of Athens

Small boutique hotel in the heart of Athens with clean, modern rooms and an excellent restaurant. Our room didn't have a window, but since we spent most of the time out exploring the city, it wasn't a problem. There was plenty of light in the room and the tall ceilings made the room seem even larger. The hotel staff were most accommodating in getting us taxis/ transportation when needed around town or to/from airport and cruise port.
Kristy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I received a warm greeting from front desk staff (including Efvie - approximate spelling!). The hotel is beautiful, quiet, and ideally located for an exploration of ancient and modern Athens.
Steven, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent value and location

The location is incredible. Walking distance to everything - including most of the trendy bars and restaurants. Bed was so comfy and the shower pressure fantastic. Having a balcony was a great way to wind down in the afternoon and escape the sun for a bit. Really nice staff.
Erica, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

From the warm welcome by staff from the moment you enter (thank you Nisa, Nikos and team), this felt like the most comfortable place to stay in Greece. The hotel is ideally located, attractive and very clean, and my room felt more spacious than usual hotels. Breakfast was delicious, promptly served and fairly priced. The aptly named Gem is a total winner.
Steven, 1-night trip
