Breakfast buffet was spectacular, the hotel was centrally located to everything we were looking for. Staff was excellent
We had an absolutely lovely stay at the Electra Palace in Athens. The hotel is conveniently located in the centre of the Plaka neighborhood, close to many shops and restaurants. The acropolis is an easy 15 minute walk. We had both breakfast and dinner at the 8th floor restaurant which has a beautiful view of the acropolis and city of Athens. The food was incredible. The room was well kept and comfortable. The staff were very helpful making recommendations and booking our taxi. An amazing stay!
Excellent option for Athens stay. Hotel was close to many of the major activities, staffs were very friendly. You can't say enough good things about rooftop restaurant. Breakfast was excellent with a million dollar view!!! We also had a dinner and night view was also great. Room was clean and just enough space for us to stay for a week. Excellent overall!!!
We loved our stay here. The breakfast at the roof top restaurant was excellent, with great views. The staff was helpful and attentive. The location was convenient for sight-seeing in the city.
Very helpful and friendly staff who went above and beyond helping us get the most out of seeing their beautiful city. Beds were so comfy, breakfast was top notch.
