8/10 Very good

The positives about this hotel are location and the friendly staff. The views to the Acropolis are fantastic. It is on the expensive side. The hotel only has one small tiny elevator.

8/10 Very good

AthensWas welcoming
Hotel location is excellent for most of the major sites like the Acropolis, the Acropolis museum, the agoras, Hadrians gate, the Panathenaic stadium etc. All are within a 15min walk. There are plenty of restaurants close by and the Monastiraki, Syntagma and other squares are all easily walkable as well. The room we stayed in was well equipped and very comfortable and met our needs perfectly. The staff at the hotel from the people at reception to the staff serving breakfast really made us feel welcome and always had a smile to brighten the day. The only thing i would have liked to see was an area where you could sit nd have a chat without feeling like you had to buy something. This is only a minor point as most of time when we got back to the hotel we were ready to shower and sleep.

Excellent hospitality minutes away from Acropolis
Amazing. It was incredible staying at Athens Was. It's beautiful, clean, a short walk from the Acropolis, and the hospitality was excellent. As soon as we checked in, we were warmly greeted and offered fresh fruit juice and lemon tarts (which were delicious). Our room was excellent and included a handwritten note from the manager welcoming us. After we returned from a rooftop dinner with a stupendous view of the Acropolis at night, we found our room turned-down with tasty chocolate treats for us both. Breakfast the next morning was (unsurprisingly) also delectable. The hotel wins on all fronts: wonderful staff, hospitality, and a location right in heart of beautiful Athens.

Poor check out experience
unfortunate check out experience. At check out they suddenly asked to pay more than what’s agreed to in the hotel.com agreement- additional taxes to what was agreed to and that too after I had paid the entire amount due!

From the moment we entered, we were pampered by the staff. They were helpful, efficient, and friendly. Greeted with a glass of refreshing punch and apple tarts was a nice touch! Our room was immaculate and furnished with a full array of useful items. Breakfast was not the typical buffet, rather we were able to order from the lovely menu. I gone this hotel my highest recommendation.
