Hotel Spa di Athens

Positive: - Very clean with a/c and nice aroma around the hotel. - Breakfast was good which is on the rooftop with lovely views of the acropolis. - Staff were friendly. - Location is good which includes a metro station nearby. - The rooms and bathrooms were clean and spacious. - Good value for money Negatives: - Pool on rooftop is nice but can get busy/crowded. - They provide early breakfast between 2am - 7am for those with early starts but the options are terrible.

The room was OK, clean and hygienic. The suite had a direct view of the Acropolis. The front desk service was OK, but the luggage was not delivered to the room. We stayed for three consecutive nights. On the first night, they provided red wine, soda water, and fruit. We finished the red wine, but they did not actively add more on the next two days. They provided two bottles of mineral water on the first day, but only one on the second day. How could one bottle of water be enough for our family of three? Fortunately, I asked my daughter to call the room service for an extra bottle. We think that these facilities should not be asked by guests, but should be added by the room service staff when cleaning the room! The breakfast is indeed relatively simple, and the breakfast is exactly the same for three consecutive days!

Highlights: beautiful views of acropolis and surrounding area from rooftop bar/restaurant space (also where breakfast served), buffet of good standard and restaurant staff very polite and a credit to the hotel. Improvements: reception staff generally very helpful but one particular staff member was not forthcoming with information/recommendations for restaurants/ details regarding late check out - we were always referred to come back later/following day to reception to ask someone else; when same questions asked later to a different member of staff, they were more than happy to help with all enquiries. Room: no ‘do not disturb’ sign available, housekeeping knocked on room at 9am every day, which woke us up; also housekeeping entering room after knocking on door without waiting for guests to respond; need some adjustments to respect privacy or guests; hotel corridors are very stuffy even in winter time Overall: a very pleasant stay

Great location, room is small but it got everything we need, staffs are very helpful, helped me with phone charger plug, last day they let us eat breakfast before the official opening hour because we had to leaves at 7am for the ferry. It’s one block away from the sightseeing bus stop, I mean if going to the Acropolis is your main goal, this hotel is a good choice, it is close to Prakka area and many restaurants in walking distance, 5-10 min walk to the entrance of the Acropolis And the museum. It has some road noise but it is in the city, we only stay 3 nights there, I didn’t feel like taking a taxi or Uber or metro train, we like the location of this hotel a lot. Would recommend to our friends.

The hotel is in a great location. The room I stayed in has a large balcony, and you can see the Acropolis from the lounge chair on the balcony. The hotel service is also very good, and any additional needs are met in a timely and perfect manner. The overall facilities are great, but the only regret is that the room lighting control is still scattered on the wall, and there is no centralized control, so it is a bit troublesome to turn on the light in the middle of the night.

Royal Olympic Hotel is a fabulous hotel, beautifully decorated with Athenian marble and offers great views of the Acropolis and Athens especially from the rooftop restaurant. It’s worth it to pay a little extra for a room with a view of the city and The Acropolis! ! Breakfast was very good but not to par with the hotel’s 5 star rating. Though the restaurant service is excellent. In today’s world with so many tech devices, there is insufficient electrical receptacles in the room especially by the nightstand and bathroom and there are no USB type charging receptacles. Perhaps it’s time for a makeover into the tech world while maintaining the classic elegance Royal Olympic Hotel offers.

A very nice hotel, unexpectedly good. The hotel entrance is a bit difficult to find, but overall is great and will book again.

Great location, friendly staff, spacious and clean rooms. Everything was very good.You can also get a glimpse of the Acropolis from the balcony.

This hotel is simply divine! It’s brand new construction. The rooms, bed, air conditioning are wonderful. The Athens view roof top restaurant is one of the best parts of the hotel. The food is delicious. The service is exceptional. The morning breakfast is the best breakfast that I have ever had in a hotel. The breakfast room with outdoor garden is serene and a wonderful experience. The only negatives are: 1) The pool is cold and not heated 2) The hotel is far away from the desirable area of plaka or Monastiraki. $15 Euros by cab or 1 hour walk.

We were given a welcome drink at the reception, what a surprise! All staff are helpful and polite. We booked a family room for 4 nights. In the last night, unfortunately the air conditioner didn't run. After checking, the night-shift colleague immediately opened two new twin rooms for our family. He has turned our problem into praise. We highly appreciate his work.
