Exceptional

Great location and very nice rooms. The food at the rooftop restaurant was amazing.

Pool was a little small and allowed only 7 people at the time. But it was still great to have it as the weather was very hot and having a place for the kids to play in the water was extremely helpful.

Would stay again.

Got an early checkin after a long haul flight. Staff fabulous. Modern, bright, gorgeous pool area, lovely breakfast and beautifully fitted out rooms.

Little space to store a suitcase that opens in the middle and not old-style zip top opening as luggage rack bot suitable for split pack suitcases.

Very good

Central location. Felt like a quiet, calm, oasis in the middle of the city. Food is outstanding in the restaurant on the rooftop. Friendly, helpful, knowledgeable staff. Walking distance from all attractions and sights.

Elevators were fairly small, didn't seem so accessible for wheelchair users.

Fresh inside and out

This hotel looks brand new and had a fresh feel and is decorated accordingly. The desk staff were very welcoming and very helpful. The bed was amazingly comfortable. The best I've slept in in Europe so far. All facilities were great. We ate at the rooftop restaurant and the watermelon salad and moussaka was fabulous. Great outdoor dining and pool area on such a hot evening.

Absolutly perfect

From the moment we arrived (very early :)) to the moment we left we had the best experiance we could ever have thought from the staff, rooms and all the amazing facilities this central hotel has to offer. The breakfast was very good and the girls worked so hard in difficult circumstances as on Sunday morning the whole hotel got up together :) the girls coped with it fabulously. The boys and girls on the pool bar/restuarnt work so hard to keep you all cool and happy and the guys at night make the most amazing cocktails. We went to athens to watch coldplay which was the most amazing experiance of a life time and Hotel fresh was the perfect place to stay. The owners/management of this hotel should be very proud of their staff and thereself. I am a hotelier myself and I'm picky, you exceeded all my expectations. Thank you so much for making mine and my friends weekend one to remember. Helen and Danni Rm 211

Pool area is small and gets full early. Maybe charging extra for a pool pass when booking as a first come first served maybe an idea if it is feasible. We were fine but some guest were complaining to each other.

The hotel was nice, the staff are very friendly and helpful. The roof top bar/restaurant is amazing for the service, food and view. Breakfast was ok with a variety of foods that they keep well stocked. I would definitely stay again and would get the suite versus a regular room. The suite was spacious and well suited for our stay.

Superb hotel close to centre with amazingly helpful staff and fabulous rooftop bar/restaurant.

Chic Hotel with fabulous rooftop bar/pool area overlooking acropolis. we loved the convenient location and the staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. Enjoyed an excellent meal here on the last evening of our stay. Room was adequate size, very clean and bed very comfy.

Nothing really .. cocktails were a bit overpriced so we didn’t try those.

Great value for money!

Beautifully designed, large rooms, the breakfast was great with multiple different choices, and fresh orange juice. The location was great, 5 min walk from bars, restaurants and the main shopping street. The stuff were very helpful and friendly, and the overall experience was wonderful, will definitely book it again when visiting Athens! And they have great facilities, the roof area had a pool and beautiful view to the acropolis

Good for a 2 night stay in Athens.

Really good location and breakfast was brilliant. Staff very helpful and friendly. Pretty good value for the location.

Hairball in bathroom and the balcony door only shut from the inside (so if you’re a smoker someone has to shut you out / let you in or the whole place smells)

I wish I could have stayed longer!

It was in a lively and central location. Really relaxed atmosphere. The breakfast was exceptional. Masses of choice. The rooftop restaurant Michelin star worthy. Small but lovely rooftop pool. Sweeping Views of the city and the Acropolis. Acropolis

Excellent.

Very clean and beautifully build. The best part was the staff at the reception.

The fish market is very close and the smell was very close.
