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!

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.

Spacious room and bathroom and amazing shower (strong pressure). There was a taxi strike the day we were arriving (we didnt know this) and the hotel contacted us the night prior asking if we wanted them to organise a car to pick us up from airport. Fantastic customer service (the airport was chaos when we arrived bc no taxis) Would definitely stay here again.

The location was within walking distance to Plake and Monostiraki, also other monuments and tourist sites. The staff were amazing and extremely helpful with check in and everything required. Also help full with information of sites and shopping. The pool was great shade umbrellas with views of the acropolis day and night. Cocktails and bar were great including lunch and dinner options. Breakfast had a great option for all tastes.

A superb place in the heart of Athens - this has everything you could want!
The breakfast was delicious and served in a lovely space - we also had dinner on the roof on the first night, which was lovely. The roof area is fabulous - there’s a great little swimming pool and wonderful views over to the Acropolis…

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.

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.
