10/10 Exceptional

This is a lovely boutique hotel, right in the heart of central Athens. As the name suggests, it has great design, but more importantly it was comfortable and quiet, while being very close to everything. The views of the Acropolis from the breakfast room are stunning. The staff was lovely - I would highly recommend this hotel and hope to have the opportunity to return one day.

Selecting a hotel in Athens is tricky. It’s a big bustling city. We were very lucky. It’s a great location and a very cool hotel. It’s hip and edgy

10/10 Exceptional

Rooms are nice size and comfortable. At least the one we stayed in which was a little bit larger room. Air-conditioning worked well which was enjoyable because it was very hot while we were there. The bed and other room amenities were nice. The bathroom was comfortable and well appointed. But not overly luxurious. It was our second time to stay there and the location is great for most of the things you want to do for a couple of days Stay in Athens.

8/10 Very good

Great location and very nice hotel. I don't know if it the value for the money was there, but I did appreciate the high-end amenities, the helpfulness of the staff and the location. We only stayed for one evening to catch an early flight back home, so I don't know if we got the full experience of staying there. Regardless it's a lovely hotel and would definitely recommend if it's within your budget.

This was our first trip to Athens. I struggled with picking the right hotel that was close to all the sites that we wanted to see. We nailed it with AthensWas. It’s the perfect location. Close to everything. Very clean and safe. I walked by some of the other hotels that we didn’t pick up and I’m so glad that we chose this one. I’ll stay there again my next time in Athens.
