Hotel Electra Metropolis, Athens

Mitropoleos 15, Athina 105 57, Greece (show on map)

Expert reviews

CNN review:

“This 216-room hotel has sweeping views of the Parthenon, an outdoor pool, and is centrally located near Syntagma Square. There are three restaurants, a rooftop bar, a sauna and a Turkish bath in the Electra Metropolis.”

Fodors review:

“The Electra Metropolis marries the retro chic aesthetics of the ’50s and ’60s with the modernity of the 21st century. High up on the 10th floor is the roof garden with a stunning 360° panoramic view of Athens and beyond.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Athens.

Telegraph review:

“The rooms are polished and the location couldn’t be more central, but the trump card at this five-star hotel in downtown Athens is undoubtedly the roof terrace, thanks to a small pool and full-blown views of the Parthenon.”

Very good

Great location and comfortable room. The best part of the stay was the incredible staff

My only criticism would be that for such a high end hotel not to have a streaming option for movies ( or the ability to mirror a smartphone) is disappointing

The hotel exceeded my expectations and the staff in it. I was made to feel welcome there and the staff were consistent with their hospitality. I left with wanting to go back to the same hotel which is rare for me. Its also located in the heart of Athens with a beautiful view of the Acropolis from the rooftop restaurant.

The only thing I didn't like was leaving so soon.

Breath taking Athens 🇬🇷🩵🤍💙

Staying at this hotel in the heart of Athens was truly a wonderful experience. The location is absolutely perfect — right in the center of the city and within walking distance of many of Athens’ main attractions, restaurants, and shops. The hotel itself is beautiful, spotless, and very well maintained. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, making our stay very relaxing. Breakfast was one of the highlights of our stay. The variety and quality were excellent, and the view from the breakfast area was simply breathtaking. Starting the day with such an amazing view of Athens made the experience even more special. What really made this stay exceptional, though, was the staff. Every single member of the team was kind, professional, and incredibly helpful. Their warmth and hospitality made us feel truly welcome. Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. A beautiful property, perfect location, fantastic breakfast, and outstanding service. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Athens.

Came for our honeymoon, the hotel is very clean and tidy, the breakfast is great, staff for the most part are friendly and helpful. The spa is great and the food at the lobby is good. Overall a good value for our money and a very lovely stay.

Abit of a rushed checkin with an impatient receptionist.

Gorgeous view in the dining room. Breakfast was good and varied, the room was clean, spacious, large shower and toilet. It's fun to have a spa with a sauna. The staff was very friendly, helpful and caring.

Breakfast was good and varied, but repeated itself every day. Saunas can be used by appointment, so it's less spontaneous. The pool was cold. There were nights when the hotel was noisy and we could hear the noise all the way to the room. To their credit, when we called reception, the staff immediately took care of it and calmed people down.

A wonderful stay with everything you could hope for for a cultural long weekend with family.

Apart from a stellar location, top facilities and beautiful views of the Acropolis, I want to call out just how lovely the staff is. There was great attention to detail to ensure my children were served first and well looked after. We hope to be back soon.

The staff very friendly, helped me with something personal. We took the acropolis balcony suite and it’s just an amazing look. The shower, the bed, and futures are total fine. The suite isn’t so big but it was enough. Location is perfect.

Morning breakfast is a bit packed. But the top dinning room is very nice for view or for bar at night
