The hotel is ideally situated in the heart of Athens, making it easy to explore major attractions like the Acropolis and Plaka. I was particularly impressed with the rooftop restaurant that offered stunning views and delicious food. While the rooms were spacious and comfortable, the service experienced some hiccups, as the staff seemed a bit rushed and not as warm as I hoped. Overall, the unique amenities and dining options made the stay enjoyable, though there were a few areas to improve upon.
