Hotel Electra Metropolis, Athens

Great location, friendly staff, amazing rooftop (enjoyed for drinks, delicious breakfast, dinner, & pool!).

Would have preferred more room options for families of 4, aside from having to stay in 2 separate rooms. Although this is not unique to this hotel and the staff did make sure our rooms were next to each other.

Location was very central, walking distance to Plaka, Monastiraki, Syntagma Square and Ermou for shopping. Our room didn't have a view but it was very comfortable. Breakfast was really nice. Amazing rooftop view of the Acropolis.

Cramped pool area and very difficult getting a lounge chair. The drinks on the rooftop were quite expensive compared to the Australian dollar.

Wonderful location. Just a short walk to most things. Delicious breakfast with a beautiful view looking at the Acropolis Very comfortable bed

The classic interior in the room and the bathtub, the bath robes, the pool service - with the waiter bringing water, the breakfast with pancakes, honey and fresh orange juice and the amazing view of Acropolis.

The pillows in the bed were too big and price was in the high end. As a family we missed a pool table, different games or a shuffle board.

The only complaint I have is that our stay was only 2 nights. From the moment we arrived we felt at home. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. Our experience of having drinks on the rooftop looking at The Acropolis, was a dream and then the next morning to experience that same view in a different light at breakfast was special. We will be back !!

Even though our view from our room was not good, we were only there at night so overall it was not an issue.

Superb hotel. Clean, great location, attentive staff, lovely breakfast.

Lack of available sunbeds for number of guests.

Great location. Very well maintained and great staff.

Perfect location in the centre of Athens with a spectacular view of the Parthenon from the rooftop bar.

Not many twin bed options

Loved the location! Breakfast was all delicious. Roof top restaurant was lovely at night looking over the Acropolis.

We loved everything about the property - the breakfast (coffees were superb), service, views, pool, location. Would definitely recommend.

Nothing.

The location and service were both excellent. The room was also a good comfortable size and well appointed, albeit dated

There are limited sun lounges by the pool but I guess this can’t be helped with a hotel with so many rooms that is limited by the pool size

The view on the top floor is breathtaking

Great views, clean rooms and a very accommodating staff!

Nothing. Everything was excellent

Great location and amazing service from all the staff

The property is central, close to shops, restaurants and the acropolis. Staff is friendly and attentive. Cleanest hotel we have stayed in Europe. The ladies that clean the rooms have incredible attention to detail which makes such a difference.

View and location were fantastic.

Clean and good decor

Great room and the service was excellent.

The location is incredible and the views from the roof top restaurant are stunning - the most beautiful breakfast location ever! The breakfast (included in our rate) was exceptional and staff couldn't do enough for you. The pool was a welcome break from the heat in the daytime and whilst it's small, we always managed to find a couple of chairs. The concierge was fabulous helping us find family friendly restaurants and guiding us around the city and the staff were brilliant at meeting our needs when the room type we'd booked wasn't available on the first night.

Location, cleanliness, included breakfast

I would really have to knit pick to find something to complain about.

Loved it here! Excellent and safe location, stunning breakfast views of the acropolis on the roof top, and access to the pool was perfect to beat the summer heat. The room was nice and the staff was helpful. Would highly recommend staying here!

This has to be almost the best hotel ever. The staff was super, super helpful and good. The location is perfect, very nice spot to walk everywhere and catch a taxi as well. The top restaurant will serve you breakfast, lunch and dinner so you are able to enjoy the spectacular Acropolis view with tiny birds visiting at all times. The hotel is wonderfully, perfectly air conditioned both in the lobby and at the rooms. The rooms are clean, quiet, large. So many places to store your stuff. Cartons of water were generously provided. There is also a turnover service around 17:00. The shower has both rain shower option and handheld option which is great. I really liked the amenities as well. As a Turkish person, I never expect a breakfast as good as our standards but this is the first time an European hotel managed to catch my expectation level, amazing breakfast 10/10 (Divan açık büfe ayarında!). The spa should DEFINITELY be booked and experienced as well, super good service. It was also my birthday and they gifted me a birthday cake and a glass of pink prosecco :) Which really made the trip so special for me.

The main reason I chose this hotel in the middle of August heat was that I was hoping to be able to jump in the pool whenever I wanted. The reality is this pool is not a hotel sized pool. It's perhaps a house sized pool, with perhaps 30 sunbeds packed all around it. First comes first served based. And very socially awkward to use as all of the sunbeds looks at the pool very closely. So beware. I used the spa pool instead and was able to use the normal pool once. The second little suggestion I have for all hotels that please stop putting the hairdryer fixed to bathroom wall. It takes forever to dry our hair and it is very tiring to stand there. Bring your own hairdryer if you have long hair. Also unfortunately, the bath towels are not plus sized friendly. They are plus sized friendly at the pool.

Everything

Nothing everything was exceptional

I liked the location, the high standard, the professional and friendly staff, and the quality of the food.

Fantastic staff, rooms and breakfast buffet.

More shade around pool would be great but that’s minor feedback. Everything else was great.

The food was amazing, and the staff from the people at the door to the front desk to taking the luggage to the room were amazing. The roof top resturant was perfect, and the view of the Acropolis at night was picture amazing. As for the location, basically, you will not find anything better. To me, this is the only place I will stay from now on.

Everything!

Nothing.

Elegant hotel located within walking distance of boutiques, restaurants and the Acropolis. Delicious rooftop restaurant overlooking the Acropolis. Comfortable and spacious rooms. Staff was friendly and eager to help with all our activities.

Good, very central to all areas

Nothing

The location and roof top breakfast/ dinner area cannot be beaten. My brother who was also staying at the hotel had a medical emergency and the staff were extremely empathetic and accommodating. I applaud them for their willingness to help and arrange medical care. Thank you.

My first room looked straight into a demolition site. Make sure you ask for a higher floor. I had to fight pretty hard to get moved.

Location is excellent. View of the acropolis. 5 star property

Cost - everything is expensive Breakfast is the same every day and there is no care with the food - always overcooked Hard to get a lounge at the pool and staff don’t manage it

Location was amazing, roof top was beautiful, and breakfast was exceptional Clean rooms, new furniture and friendly staff

The restaurant is outstanding!

Staff arent that friendly

Location and facilities

Mattress and pillows were too soft for our liking

Love the breakfast, the pool, the view, the staff and the location.

Brilliant place right in the heart of Athens. Hotel is clean and breakfast is awesome with breathtaking views of the acropolis.

Perfect location, right in the center of everything and still quiet and peaceful. The hotel has a modern design, thinking about all the little details for a perfect accommodation experience. The hotel facilities are luxurious, the breakfast is delicious. Excellent service

Great location, great for families and love the roof top pool

Noise outside of my room at night. I think the windows need to be replaced to be more soundproofed.

The waiter remembered the way I took my coffee which felt like a nice personal touch.

The location was excellent—just a short walk to Plaka and the Ermou shopping district. There were plenty of great restaurants nearby, making it super convenient for dining. Perfect view of the Acropolis.

The location is phenomenal, just 1 minute from Syntagma. The staff is very kind and helpful. They allowed us to extend our check-out time. The rooms are very clean, breakfast has everything you need, and the view from the bar/restaurant is spectacular.

Keep in mind that the indoor pool is small and requires a reservation before visiting, and the outdoor pool doesn’t have any sunshades. But all in all, if we were to come back, we would definitely stay here again.

We requested rooms near each other and they were able to accommodate well, one room with an unexpected view of the acropolis. Lovely staff and the location was perfect for walking to and from town. Breaksfast buffet was one of the best we had on all of Greece.

everything was great and we'd recommend staying here for the location and rooftop views.

Excellent
