    stunning rooftop views
    slow elevator

    Breathtaking views from the rooftop bar, especially of the Acropolis!

    The elevator was painfully slow, making simple trips frustrating.

    great view

    It was just a reliable pick for an overnight stop in Athens, great for the money. The rooftop bar offers a stunning view of the Acropolis, perfect for a nightcap. Make sure to check out nearby restaurants for some good eats.

    rooftop bar
    mouthwatering eats
    acropolis views
    cramped room
    cold reception

    The rooftop bar at Central is a total gem with jaw-dropping views of the Acropolis—perfect for a sunset drink! Plus, you're surrounded by mouthwatering local eats like Tzitzikas kai Mermigas just a hop away. Can't beat that vibe!

    However, the room felt a bit cramped, and I had to do a little furniture gymnastics just to find a socket. The shower was snug, and the reception could use a sprinkle of warmth to match the lively Athens spirit.

    cozy room
    effective air conditioning
    clean bathroom
    tight space
    noticeable noise

    The room was cozy with effective air conditioning and a clean, modern bathroom. It felt a bit tight for three people, but the comfy beds made up for it. The noise from the hallway was noticeable, which was a bit distracting. Overall, the decor felt stylish and fresh, and I appreciated the ample mirrors making it feel more spacious than it was.

    lack of engagement

    The stylish decor of the hotel and its welcoming atmosphere made it feel like a cozy home away from home. Its easy layout was perfect for my elderly parents and offered excellent access to nearby attractions.

    More engaging morning staff would be appreciated.

    The hotel boasts a fantastic central location with easy access to attractions and a stunning view of the Acropolis from the rooftop. However, the room was somewhat cramped, making it tricky to maneuver around our luggage. Service was generally friendly, but the lift could use an upgrade.

    stunning view
    cozy room
    delicious breakfast
    small room

    I recently spent four nights in a cozy Economy Double room with a stunning view of the Acropolis right outside my window, which was totally breathtaking! The breakfast had great selections like Greek cheese and a tasty espresso machine. I loved unwinding on the sun terrace by the bar after a day of exploring. The only hiccup was the room being a bit on the small side, but it didn't dampen my overall experience at all. 🌟
