We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and highly recommend it 100%! Everything was perfect – the warm atmosphere, the delicious food, the comfortable rooms, and the lovely pool. It’s definitely the best hotel we’ve stayed at in Athens – an ideal place to relax and fully enjoy your holiday. ☺️

The best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Very cool, clean, great facilities, and perfect for a solo traveller in her ‘40s. Nice to see many people around my age too. This is going to explode in popularity once the word gets out more!

The hotel is a young vibrant gem The pool is a great bonus on hot summer days, and it has a nice view on the Acropolis in one corner of the rooftop. The stuff is amazing. The room we had was simple but very illuminated and has a nice terrace. The hotel is perfectly clean and tidy. The shared spaces are generous and welcoming. Breakfast is nice and fresh. The location is a bit off city center.

There's a lot of graffiti and street art, but that should not be...
