"We stayed for three nights in an acropolis view room. It was a magical weekend. The room was spotless, the employees were all friendly and very helpful, and the Hotel is in an amazing location. There is so much going on outside near the Hotel. Great shopping, amazing food, very safe vibe, and just a fun place to walk around. The two high points that stood out extra special for us were the amazing view and the included buffet breakfast with a wall of window overlooking Athens and the acropolis. Worth the price. Would love to come back"

Novotel Athenes

"The highlight was a pool on the roof, overlooking the acropolis. Being on the roof, it wasn't very deep and was fairly small, so with quite a lot of hotel guests using it, there wasn't really room for a proper swim, but it was great for cooling off. We were delighted to see there was a shuttle-bus into the city centre, but it didn't go very regularly and got filled up so we had to walk. The breakfast choice was phenomenal - I could have stayed there all day - I couldn't even decide what to drink, let alone what to eat - but the following day, when I checked out before breakfast, all that was available was dry cake, crumbly biscuits and sachet coffee - a bit of an anticlimax for an otherwise good stay."
