We really enjoyed our stay: comfortable room with great view of the Acropolis; scenic roof top pool & restaurant; helpful staff; and great location. When we are in Athens again we will certainly stay at the Electra Palace.

I asked for a recommendation for a... More

Bad: Old fashioned, pokey, uninspiring breakfast (poor choice of fresh fruit, no fresh juice, burnt pastries, long life milk), the gym has three pieces of equipment (bike, treadmill, weights bench) and the indoor pool is...

The service from all the staff was top notch and professional and they were always helpful with recommendations. The breakfast was amazing in both variety and quality.We had a balcony with views of the Acropolis that was stunning and a swimming pool on the 4th floor with equally stunning views of Athens. The museum, the Acropolis, the narrow lane ways... More

I had checked this hotel in the past and noticed its nice garden and overall atmosphere. I am very satisfied with my stay there, the staff and the breakfast offered. The location is ideal for a tourist visit to Athens.
