“Never Expected This”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2011

First, let me say that this hotel isn't horrible in the general sense. It's clean, the staff is very friendly and it's in a very nice area of Athens. It's not exactly close to the city center but if you're looking for a great shopping district with some nice eateries you're in the right area.

I'll also give you a little background in the fact that I travel all over the world for work and stay in all brands of hotels, over 40 nights per year. That being said; I've seen some great rooms in independant hotels and horrible rooms in large chain hotels but this one is unfortunately my least favorite. I'll list the issues I had with it below.
If it weren't for the fact that there are no other larger chain hotels in the area and my client is only a 5 cab ride away I wouldn't have stayed all 3 nights.

Issues:
1. Internet is incredibly slow. It took me over 3 minutes just to get Google to come up.

2. The bed is rock hard, and I mean like a stone and you can feel every coil in the ULTRA-FIRM twin mattresses they push together to make it look like larger bed. I threw my 55lbs (25kg) suitcase on the bed and it bounced, literally bounced and not just a little.

3. The bathroom is literally 6 feet by 6 feet (2m x 2m for those on metric), which includes the shower which is 2ft x 2ft and doesn't have a door or a curtain to hold the water in.

4. In-room desk: 3ft tall but the "chair" or stool is only about 1.5ft tall so sitting at the desk and using your computer is not possible and the stool has not back on it.

5. Closet: The hangers don't come out so you can't remove them to hang your clothes correctly.

6. Elevator: 3ft x 3ft.. smallest elevator I've ever seen; it barely held me and my two suitcases.

7: Bedding: Pillows are non-feather, which I like, but they are not soft. If you're prone to being cold the sheet and light blanket aren't going to keep you warm and there isn't a spare blanket in the closet.

8. TV: This is probably a 22 inch (diagonally measured) screen so it's not much larger than the monitor on my desktop computer at home.

9. Laundry: Not available

Spent a couple nights in this hotel. As there were no reviews about this hotel. Didn't know what to expect. When I arrived, I was pleasantly surprised. The rooms are very cleaned and staff were extremely friendly. Good size room and bathroom. The hotel is located at the centre of Kifissia, probably the most expensive suburb of Athens. Full of shops and restaurants nearby. The town itself is quite nice and charming. I left something in my room and only realised it 2 weeks later. Emailed the hotel and they posted it back to me very quickly. Nice breakfast too!!
