Wonderful stay at the Electra Palace in a suite with patio overlooking the Acropolis. Service was top-notch, from the welcoming smiles on arrival, storage of luggage, directions to local sights, and poolside (after a rain shower, we went to the pool to relax, and pool staff came out and dried off the beds and brought fresh towels). Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend for anyone looking for a clean, elegant and convenient location. The breakfast is fantastic, and the rooftop location provides for stunning views for a dessert/nightcap.

Really nice hotel, clean, centrally located… I would probably go back. They also have great breakfast buffet but the only let down in their breakfast was their staff. They seem to try but gestures like their staff reminding ever single table individually that breakfast was over when almost every plate in the room was empty was unnecessary and makes guests feel uncomfortable, it seems like the staff was annoyed 10 - 15 tables were there 5 minutes after breakfast was over. Other than their restaurant staff having an attitude and being rude the hotel was decent.

After spending two nights in a lovely yet noisy suite near the elevator on the 5th floor, we were delighted when Sofia from Guest Relations kindly upgraded us to the presidential suite. The new suite was not only spacious but also blissfully quiet, creating a perfect retreat for our stay. Thank you, Sofia, for this thoughtful gesture! We can't wait to return.

Excellent hotel in prime location. Staff were very Friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Room was clean and our view of the Acropolis from our balcony was stunning! Roof top restaurant for breakfast every day was very special. Lovely touch of cake and fizz for my husband’s birthday. And we were stuck at the airport when we arrived due to a national strike. The hotel came to our rescue and found us a car. Highly recommend.
