Excellent location for walking around and close to the Acropolis. The hotel is beautiful and front desk staff very helpful. Check in was great, quick and very personable staff. The breakfast area has great views of the Acropolis and a wide selection of items.
Lovely hotel on a small street. Great location with a beautiful view. Very comfortable and quiet. Staff is very friendly and helpful.
Buffet breakfast is very good. Short walk to many sites as well as shopping and restaurants.
Great hotel, location and staff. Location was especially good as it was just blocks away from everything but a little less crazy then a few blocks away. The two restaurants were really good as well. Heard different things about Athens but I thought it was a really really great place to visit.
Adjoining family rooms worked well and were spacious. The breakfast restaurant is lovely. The outdoor pool was closed because of the weather (late October) but we did book the small indoor pool. Location is perfect and staff friendly. Would recommend.
My wife and I stayed here on our final night in Athens. The hotel is located in the center of all the nearby restaurants and walkable areas so it was really convenient. It is very clean and we felt welcomed immediately. We did encounter one staff on the 8th floor restaurant that had a bit of an attitude, but maybe she was just having a bad day. The rest of the staff was amazing and very helpful with suggestions and questions. The rooms itself was a bit small, but still very comfortable overall! The breakfast was wonderful with great views of the Acropolis.
Fantastic location! Polite and helpful staff. The grounds are lovely. Rooms are wonderful and clean. Must not miss the roof top bar and restaurant with insane views
Stayed at the Electra Palace with my two brothers and couldn’t have been happier. Great location. Lots and lots to see within walking distance. Both restaurants one on the ground floor one on the rooftop had some of the best food that we had all week and the rest of it was nothing to scoff at !
Every staff member we encountered were very professional and accommodating. I would highly recommend this place without hesitation.

The feature here was the rooftop restaurant. Perfect location to eat looking at the Acropolis. The rest of the hotel is dated but clean. Not a five star. More a tour bus location. Good area.
Wonderful property in a good location. Watched sunset at the pool roof deck. Had a light dinner in the bar area. Lovely upscale property I would easily recommend.
The hotel was beautiful! Our suite had an amazing view of the acropolis. The staff were friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay here again in the future!
Centrally located with many restaurants and shopping within a 2 block radius. We spent a couple of hours at the rooftop pool one hot afternoon.
The rooftop restaurant was the best part of our stay with a great buffet breakfast that had a great selection of food.
We had an amazing stay in Athens! The hotel is in a beautiful, safe area and is perfectly located close to everything. It was easy to get around and explore the city, and we felt comfortable and safe throughout our stay. Beautiful hotel, wonderful location, and a great experience overall. Highly recommend!
This property is in walking distance to so many things. Love shopping and eating close by. They have 2 pools, indoor and outdoor. Breakfast was wonderful. Restaurant on property was superb. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
