AthensWas Design Hotel

It is a new hotel. It is the closest hotel to the Acropolis. The staff was surprisingly excellent and friendly. We felt we were welcome.

We stayed for a week to visit the major sites in Athens. The hotel was perfectly situated, a short walk from the Acropolis and museum. It was also even closer to the metro, so getting around to more distant places (including the airport) was simple. The staff were fantastic, with an attentive and friendly service. They also had very helpful suggestions and recommendations of what to see and do. Breakfast was served on the top floor, giving a great view to the nearby Acropolis. Excellent choice of waiter-served dishes and limitless supplies of coffee. The hotel is close to the main road running up to Syntagma square, but we were never bothered with any noise whatsoever. I would stay again without hesitation and would recommend for a short or longer stay.

We liked everything about this hotel apart from the inadequate lighting in our room and the placement of items in the bathroom. All the staff were friendly and spoke good English. The good and varied breakfast is served on the top floor giving magnificent views of the the Acropolis area. The air-conditioned room is a good size and has a coffee machine and free water every day. The wardrobe space is good.

Excellent location, friendly and helpful staff, comfortable bed and pillows, lovely breakfast with wonderful view of the Acropolis. Very stylish and chic. The staff deserve special mention and were happy to arrange taxis and reservations. All done with ease, minimal fuss and a welcome lack of pretension. Restaurant staff also excellent. Room service was good and the pizzas and salads offered were modern eating as described and an easy option when feeling too tired to leave the room!

The location is excellent, and the staff are truly exceptional. They were very attentive and thoughtful throughout our stay. They helped us organize a trip to Meteora and ensured our breakfast was ready early before our 7:15 departure. They knew us by name and always greeted us with a smile. One particularly thoughtful touch was the complimentary wine they offered. When we declined, they brought freshly made juices to our room every day instead. Their care and attention made our stay unforgettable.
