Nice location and hotel. A central area near Acropolis in Plaka. Near Syntagma. The room was small for a triple room. The pool was very small. Breakfast was good but lunch and dinner were awful. Nice price. Very friendly staff.

We spent two nights here with two rooms. We enjoyed the ability to walk everywhere and the great views of the Acropolis from our room and the rooftop bar. You just can't beat the convenience for such a nice place. We found a few things that could be improved. I still don't understand why a 5 star hotel charges for... More

This is an affordable 5-star hotel which features, apart from a breathtaking view of the Acropolis, very polite and helpful staff, elegant furniture and Persian carpets in the suite. I'd definitely stay there again.

We stayed for four nights at the Electra Palace Hotel. We had a great stay but there were a couple of things which would make it even better - tea making facilities in the room, a clock, face washers, free wifi in the room and a washing line over the bath. The things that we particularly enjoyed were the location,... More

We stayed at the Electra Palace both on arrival in Athens and again before our departure for home following some island-hopping in the Cyclades. The staff are very helpful and, as other reviewers have said, the location is excellent being close to the Acropolis, good value restaurants and the street market. Dinner in the Terrace Restaurant with views of the... More

This hotel is a gem! It is conveniently located in Plaka, within walking distance of the Acropolis and many other sites. The hotel staff is welcoming and helpful. Our room had a balcony with a view of the Acropolis. We enjoyed cooling off in the rooftop pool. Breakfast was lovely and served in the garden outside. The hotel restaurant, on... More

We have stayed in the Electra previously and were very happy then and we were very satisfied again. The location is perfect, around the corner from the Plaka and all main tourist attractions such as the acropolis. We had a superior suite with a view of the acropolis and found the room and setting very nice. A small hiccup, we... More

We stayed for one night at this hotel. The room was fairly plain but functional and the decor a little old fashioned. There was reasonable air-conditioning in the room but it was centrally controlled and could have been cooler. The staff were really helpful, the location excellent and there's a lovely little pool and chairs on the roof. Also we... More

The most important issue is the hotel GREAT location in the heart of the Plaka. It is in a walking distance to the important tourist sights, museums; restaurants and shops. The hotel is a luxury and well-kept but its decoration in the lobby and the rooms seems to be a little old fashioned. The room was and comfortable and clean.... More

Everything about this hotel was perfect during our recent visit to Athens. Tucked up a side street in Plaka you will be surprised at how the hotel makes fabulous use of its footprint with a huge and welcoming reception area. After a busy day of sightseeing the air conditioned hotel is a welcome relief from the heat of Athens city.... More
