No room service or fitness center, unless you count one flight of stairs to the sixth (top) floor, where our room opened onto a garden terrace with full-length view of the Acropolis and the Parthenon (old-fashioned caged elevator goes to the fifth floor only). Excellent, informative service from desk staff and everyday cleaning/linen changes from chambermaids. As with other older... More

My best friend and I stayed 3 nights here and I would recommend it, the location is great! close to the metro station, a lot of shops and restaurants. We just walked to all the sights from the hotel with no problems, Athens was a lot smaller than we imagined.... We felt safe walking back in the evenings which was... More

Great location and good service! our room was a standard room: yet what more would you want when the history & magnificence is outside & not inside? More

They are not kidding when people describe it as "functional"--our room was very very basic, with zero atmosphere or decor. Beds were very very hard (but so were all the other beds we slept on in Greece). On the other hand, the staff were friendly, the breakfast was great, and the location can't be beat--we walked everywhere with kids in... More

We stayed here two nights before a cruise and came back for two nights after. We found the location excellent, free wifi was great and breakfast good. Our shower in both rooms had a little drainage issue but nothing too bad. Our room backed onto some kind of theatre or pub or something very noisey on sat night. We didn't... More

Spent three nights at the Carolina, very clean, free WiFi and good continental breakfast. Noisy as many clients arrive and depart at all hours and the hotel is an old building, clean and well maintained. If you want to be in central Athens, close to Metro stations, one in Monastiraki at 5 minutes walk, second in Syntagma square 10 minutes,... More

On the basis of description and pictures on the website we thought we had booked a quiet room on the top floor, with two big glass doors and a spacious terrace with chairs and a table overlooking the Acropolis. But no ...... this is what we got ..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlokswc4Nw0 More

This Hotel was perfectly located and close to all the main attractions in Athens. We reached it easily from the closest subway stations (Monistiraki) and walked to all the venues we visited during our stay. The room was more spacious than we thought, clean and recently updated, but the bed cover looked like it had been used for century!! Our... More

My wife & I picked this hotel because of its ratings on Trip Advisor & hotels.com (85% positive) and its rates and I wasn't disappointed. I got a very good rate because it was one of the smaller rooms & without a view (disclosed in the offering). In retrospect, I was just as glad, because I suspect the street side... More
