Fabulous
The hotel has lovely staff, a good location (but the neighborhood might be better - sometimes not 100% safe), big and cozy rooms, clean rooms, a nice restaurant with an Acropoli view, and a new gym. 100% recommendation. Good noise-proof room.
Everything was great!

It is very close to the subway stations. The blue line passes by the Monstraki station and connects the center and the airport. Breakfast was amazing. All of the staff were hospitable and helpful.
Elevator 😁😁 but after a few tour, we got used to it :))

Our Athenian home from home.
Location is ideal for visiting Parthenon, Plaka, Monistiraki and other central areas of Athens
Breakfast was quite busy but that’s because the hotel is popular. Food was great!

Staff do their best to help on everything.
They clear away breakfast before the finishing time. My partner thought the breakfast selection was limited, but it is probably enough for most people.

Good hotel - part of Marriot chain
Nice hotel, very clean, great selection for breakfast, staff was excellent, 9th floor restaurant had good food and drinks and a swimming pool. We also had a balcony to step out on - room was 703 twin beds & very quiet
The neighborhood was a little sketchy if you went out the door and to the left otherwise all good

Boutique hotel with a great vibe
Pool is fabulous and the roof top views are stunning. Great location and nice boutique feel.
Our room was opposite lifts and under bar area and was very noisy at night.

It was pleasant, especially because the hotel was so central.
The Location, the pool
Breakfast: Not very varied if one likes fresh fruits. All the cooked food are cooked too long, including the eggs. The pastries are too sweet and intense for breakfast. The elevator is a very interesting place to be when you want to go from one floor to next. When people talk outside of your room it sounds as if they are in the room with you. The price is quite high for its value.

Front desk staff and recommendations made our trip amazing!
Breakfast was great, full of great variety. Rooftop bar and pool area were top notch!
Only complaint was the size of our room!
22 September 2024
Great central location, excellent breakfast selection, friendly and helpful staff
Convenient location close to lots of restaurants and bars and the hop on hop off bus. Very clean rooms with quirky modern decor. The staff were friendly and helpful and the reception staff made excellent recommendations for a restaurant and even rang to book a table for us. Excellent breakfast selection. If we are ever back in Athens we won’t look any further for a hotel
Nothing negative to say

Comfortable hotel with superior amenities in an excellent location. Staff on hand for any request.
Exceptionally clean, all amenities for a city hotel and easy walking distance to shops and sites. Charming helpful and friendly staff. Walking around this was clearly the hotel to stay in Athens. It was fully booked and rightly so. Roof top pool and bar were fun and a bonus. It made relaxing after touring the sites a real pleasure.
Can’t think of anything

Beautifully designed hotel
From the moment we walked into the foyer I was so impressed by the design of this hotel. The room we stayed in was stunning! Freshly renovated, it was so stylish, very spacious with a beautiful wrap verandah with views of the Parthenon and even an outdoor shower. The bed was super comfortable and the bathroom was also very room with a beautiful marble shower. The staff were amazing ever so helpful.
Nothing to do with the hotel but the location isn’t the best. But the hotel compensates for that.

Best choice
The staff were the most accommodating and friendly we’ve experienced. First class and a true credit to Fresh.
Lack of furniture on the balcony. Would probably choose no balcony if we stay again.

Great pool and bar area, not best location
Pool and roof top bar and lounges were fantastic. Had lovely dinner one night overlooking Acropolis. Daytime views were spectacular. Hotel is located near Psirri with amazing restaurants and bars. Best places we dined in Athens. Away from real tourist areas. Staff super helpful. The inclusive breakfast options were terrific and the even (on request) provided a really nice gluten free bread. Nice vibe to hotel.
The hotel is located across from the Athens market and the area around this we found a bit worrying (drug users in the street), quite dirty. Also on weekends lot of stores shut so if travelling alone may not feel safe. Bit of a walk to the plaka. Main lift took ages and was small (to be expected in older city) Hotel room was small due to extra furniture in room and shower leaked over floor.
