Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Not the closest to the Acropolis — The Acropolis is a 10-minute drive away, and Panathenaic Stadium is about a 25-minute walk, so some sightseeing requires transport.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, which may be a drawback for travellers wanting to bring theirs.
- Check-in window ends at 23:59 — If you arrive after midnight, you'll need to arrange late arrival—though 24-hour reception is available.
- Price may seem low for a luxury label — From £45 per night, while the 'luxury' name might set expectations higher, but the value rating is strong at 9.
