Top hotels in Koukaki
Divani Palace Acropolis
"Good location near Acropolis with a wonderful rooftop bar & restaurant - but not a luxury hotel despite the price. The so-called acropolis view room required standing on the edge of a very hot balcony to see the fabled structure. Breakfast buffet a bit steep at 32 euros - all in for ‘American buffet’. ..."

Airotel Parthenon
"The hotel is very different from the pictures. It is very poorly maintained and very pricey for the room we got exceptionally in its condition. Felt like we're staying in a motel. Staff was the only good thing about this hotel. They were all amazing"
