Athesense Suites
Booked and the high price specifically for swimming pool compared to other properties at same time. But unfortunately were told it was getting repaired. No update re this nor compensation. Otherwise location and transport services close by to all major attractions.

The Stanley
Big family room, great roof top bar and pool area - better than those in the city centre. Great breakfast. Only downside was the loud banging and maintenance work being done in the early hours / mornings. Would have been nice to have known this before arriving to see about moving rooms or changing ...

Great launch point hotel for a stay in Athens! Clean, functional, quiet and comfortable. Especially appreciated is the second floor (mezzanine level) welcome area where breakfast and afternoon meal buffets are presented (no fee). Would return.
