Electra Palace Athens Hotel

During our visit to Athens to explore the historic sites, we particularly enjoyed the breathtaking view of the Acropolis from the rooftop restaurant where we had breakfast. The central location of the hotel allowed us to walk to many attractions, making it convenient for sightseeing.

Perfect spot in Athens, close to all the action. Rooftop with Acropolis view is stunning. Rooms comfy but could use a refresh. Staff goes above and beyond. Indoor pool a hit with kids. A classy choice with great value for a memorable Athens stay.

The hotel was a mixed bag, starting in a disappointing room due to construction noise and bathroom accessibility issues for my wife. But, the location in Old Athens was superb, with a great Acropolis view from the restaurant. Despite small, outdated rooms, the friendly staff, delicious breakfast, and convenient location made a positive impression.

The room was clean, the staff was exceptional, and the rooftop bar offered breathtaking views. While the bed was a bit uncomfortable, the overall experience was positive, with delicious breakfast and a central location. A great choice for exploring Athens.

Stayed at Electra with an Acropolis view - breathtaking. Great rooftop restaurant/bar with stunning views. Friendly and helpful staff. Fantastic spa treatments and comfortable rooms. Convenient location for exploring.

No complaints.

Prosterns malakas! The Electra dining scene is a dance of flavors, with the rooftop terrace offering godlike views. Spoil yourself with local gems like Tzitzikas kai Mermigas, a mere hop away. And let's not forget the indoor heated pool and top-notch service. The Greek gods smiled on us with divine dishes at the hotel restaurant - a tad pricey, but worth every drachma.

The hotel was hitting high notes, but the construction above us was a minor discord.

The hotel's location is top-notch, nestled in the heart of Plaka, close to all the shops and sights. The staff was super friendly and efficient, making us feel right at home. Our superior room with Acropolis view was worth every penny, offering a cozy balcony to soak up the sun and enjoy the stunning scenery. The rooftop pool and garden were perfect for relaxing, but the front desk service could use a bit more attentiveness. ⛱

the best thing? being able to walk to the acropolis from our hotel was a game-changer! breakfast was delicious too, and the staff were super helpful. Only downside was the room change snafu ☹.

My recent stay at a hotel in Greece was a blend of ancient charm and modern comforts. Walking distance to major attractions and quaint neighborhoods. The fusion of history and luxury in the decor was captivating. The buffet breakfast was uninspired, but the sunsets over the sea made up for it. The quirky design touches added a fun twist. a great base for exploring the city and basking in the beauty of Greece. Sláinte to more adventures!

Just left Athens and stayed at a hotel near the Acropolis. Rooftop bar was incredible! The breakfast was the best of the trip. I'd go back FOR SURE. Better than the photos! 🌟

Our family had a fantastic time at the hotel, with a comfortable, family-friendly room and a rooftop pool boasting a stunning view of the Acropolis. The location couldn't have been better, just a short walk to major monuments and museums, as well as the bustling shopping district. The kids loved the outdoor pool, and we all appreciated the friendly and helpful staff.

For dads, it would be great to have more child-friendly activities by the poolside.

Loved the stunning rooftop terrace and oasis-like swimming pool, plus the amazing views of the Acropolis from our balcony. Enjoyed a relaxing massage at the spa and our son had a blast in the indoor pool. 🌟

We were graciously upgraded to the presidential suite with breathtaking Acropolis views. The rooftop pool and breakfast area were fantastic. The staff was top-notch. Minor issues with water access and parking fees, but overall a wonderful experience.

We stayed at this hotel and our experience was luxurious. the exclusive amenities exceeded our expectations, with the Spa and wellness centre being a particular highlight. the stunning indoor swimming pool and sauna provided the perfect way to unwind after a day exploring the city. the attentive staff provided excellent service throughout our stay with body scrub, full body massage and facial treatments all on offer. the hotel's restaurant served delicious breakfast and the roof top terrace had breath-taking city views. The central location was perfect with shops, restaurants and landmarks all within walking distance, making it easy to enjoy the local culture. Cons: Our only minor complaint was not having a private outdoor space in our room, as we would have liked to enjoy the good weather in a more secluded setting.

The staff at this hotel were all very gracious and helpful, making our stay extremely pleasant. They were always attentive and eager to assist with any requests or inquiries we had. the restaurant on the 8th floor had a fantastic view of the Acropolis, perfect for a romantic dinner or a relaxing lunch while enjoying the stunning scenery. the spa & wellness centre offered a variety of treatments, including massages, which were much needed after a day of exploring the city. the location was central, allowing us to walk to all the tourist attractions easily, never needing to use public transportation.

One thing that could be improved at this hotel is the breakfast service. At times, the staff at the breakfast restaurant seemed overwhelmed and not very attentive to the guests' needs.

Electra offers fantastic staff, a superb location with an Acropolis view, and well-decorated rooms. Room 611 provides a perfect experience, and amenities like the rooftop restaurant, pool, and bar add to the charm. the included breakfast is varied and delicious, making it a perfect choice for future stays.

Tired areas, average breakfast.

All of the hotel staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. the breakfast was decent and the rooftop restaurant where it was served had a spectacular view. the hotel is a very short walk to the Acropolis and all major sights. the staff was incredible and the hotel is immaculate! the restaurant and pool bar were great. There is an awesome view of the Acropolis from the top, a perfect place for dinner or a relaxing afternoon by the pool. the welcoming service was exceptional. the balcony and view of the Acropolis from our room were superb. the pool and spa facilities were great. Breakfast selection and service were superior. All hotel facilities are classy. Wifi connection was included and signal was ideal. We felt extremely comfortable at this hotel. the breakfast was phenomenal, the lobby was comfortable and warm and inviting, the room was great, the heated pool by the spa was fantastic and the rooftop pool was great too but very crowded at times. the view was priceless, the staff wonderful and there was a female concierge who was so knowledgeable and gracious and generous that she made our trip fantastic. Everything about this hotel was perfect.

Nothing for me. 😊

The hotel was bang in the center, close to all the lit spots - we hit up the shopping district and major monuments like the Acropolis and the museums, all just across the street. Plus, the rooftop pool with the sick Acropolis view was insane!

The only thing missing was a proper party scene for young club-goers. A happening nightlife vibe would take our stay from awesome to off the charts!

I always return for the perfect fit - WI-FI, storage, 24-hour service, rooftop pool, massages. First stay's shopping tips stood out. Ideal for city trips.

An ideal choice for business travelers or visitors who prize easy access and shopping. The hotel's central location was perfect for attending a colloquium, and the comfortable rooms and efficient staff made my stay enjoyable.

I missed having a dedicated business center that would have made it easier for me to handle work-related tasks during my stay.

I chose Electra for its proximity to the Parthenon, but I was pleasantly surprised by the serene poolscape and live music performances, providing a perfect place for reflection. The nearby upscale district of Kolonaki also offered an extra touch of sophistication.

Limited evening restaurant reservation availability.

the electra is super clean and cozy, and it's in a top spot with loads of quirky bars and pleasing restaurants nearby. oh, and the rooftop breakfast with views of the acropolis is unreal. also, the staff is the bomb – especially the concierge - sofia.

Electra Palace Athens is an absolute gem! The location is jaw-dropping, nestled in the charming area of Plakka. The hotel's interior and exterior are super pleasing to the eye, exuding the grandeur of yester years. The staff goes above and beyond with their exceptional service, making you feel truly cared for. The high-quality linens on the beds are mind-blowing and ensure a comfortable sleep. The breakfast is simply outstanding with a fantastic range of fresh and delicious options. The dining room with its glass walls and breathtaking view of the Acropolis is a true highlight. The spa experience is top-notch, with stellar physiotherapists and luxurious products that leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. The hotel overall is the epitome of luxury, perfectly priced, and within walking distance of many attractions. Don't miss out on the rooftop bar/restaurant with its amazing Acropolis view and the refreshing pool on the 4th floor. I would definitely stay here again, making sure to book earlier for a bigger room.

Comfy beds. Charming staff. Good location. Nice view to Acropolis. Pool and spa facilities.

Nothing it was perfect.

Great pool with an awesome backdrop for swimming. Good breakfast with views of a famous landmark. Central location, within walking distance of most attractions

Pool closes too early , would have liked to enjoy evenings by the pool. WiFi only free in the lobby and not working properly even when paid for

The perfect location near Plaka offers a stunning Acropolis view. Quality amenities and a quiet suite make for a relaxing stay. Staff were professional, the rooftop restaurant pricey but delicious. Some service lapses occurred, but the exceptional cleanliness and service made our stay pleasant and memorable.

I had a phenomenal stay at a hotel in the heart of the Plaka neighborhood. It was the perfect base for exploring the nearby shopping street and iconic sights like the Acropolis. The hotel had a beautiful reception and spacious rooms with all the amenities I needed. The rooftop breakfast with a stunning view of the Acropolis was a highlight. The staff were friendly and helpful, even arranging a taxi for me. I highly recommend this hotel for its location and excellent service.

Located in a bustling yet charming neighborhood, this hotel is within walking distance of popular tourist spots, making it the perfect location for sightseeing. The stylish rooms are well-appointed and offer stunning views of the Acropolis. The breakfast buffet has an extensive selection and the staff are friendly and accommodating. Relax by the rooftop pool for breathtaking views of the surrounding area.

Noise from the restaurant above some of the suites can be a concern for some guests.

stayed at Electra in the heart of where the action is, yet surprisingly quiet in our room. the staff, especially Konstantinos at the pool bar and Anna at the restaurant, made it feel like a second home. the front desk staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Jaw-dropping views from the Roof Top Bar, celebrating a birthday felt royal. Breakfast was fresh with a view to die for. Excellent location, within walking distance to main sights, surrounded by charming restaurants and bars.

Nothing to mention 🙁

The room was super cozy and stylish, with a comfy bed and a big Smart LED TV for lazy evenings after a long day of work. As a traveler who loves comfort and technology, I felt right at home.

The bathroom lighting was a bit too bright for my taste.

The hotel's location was perfect, as it was within walking distance to almost all of the city's attractions and close to main sites. Additionally, the hotel's cleanliness was noteworthy, and the staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Hard to think of anything.

My recent stay in Athens was amazing! the staff were incredibly welcoming and the suite was fabulous. I LOVED the rooftop pool. Would definitely stay here again. the pool looks even better in person than in photos!

Everything was amazing!! We are two couples traveling for 5 weeks. Arriving at Electra Palace was like coming to an oasis of peace, comfort, and relaxation. The staff were welcoming continually over our 4 days, nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was sensational with beautiful settings inside and out, and the rooftop pool was to die for! We just LOVED this stay and will ALWAYS stay here if returning to Greece. Location was also excellent!

Recommend this hotel.

However, the lack of a lock on the room door from the inside was a significant downside. the spa experience, from the massage to the high-quality products used, was truly outstanding and rejuvenating. the phenomenal views of the Acropolis both from the rooftop pool and the restaurant added a special touch to my overall experience at the hotel.

I loved staying at this hotel. The location was perfect: close to Adrianou Street, the Acropolis, and Syntagma Square. The staff were very friendly and took care of my every need. The view of the Acropolis from the rooftop restaurant is breathtaking. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the breakfast buffet was amazing. Overall I highly recommend this hotel.

Centrally located, safe area

Can't fault anything about it.

Discover a whole new level of indulgence with custom-made furniture, marble-tiled bathrooms, and small design touches that make all the difference. I felt like I was transported back in time to an era of elegance and sophistication.

The soundproofing in the room was outstanding, I could hear every sound from my neighbor's bathroom symphony. Absolutely delightful.

Great location in the heart of the tourist area with breathtaking views of a famous historical site. the rooftop pool was a refreshing oasis with a bar nearby for convenience.

The hotel's decor felt outdated and in need of a modern touch. the rooftop restaurant lacked ambiance and the breakfast options were uninspiring.

Greatly located hotel in the beautiful Plaka neighborhood, close to the Acropolis and Syntagma Square. Comfortable and spacious rooms with a variety of amenities, including an indoor and outdoor pool. Impeccable staff that offers excellent concierge service and organizes transportation to different destinations. Stunning rooftop restaurant with breathtaking views while enjoying a delicious breakfast. Ideal place for both leisure and business travelers, highly recommended.

Electra Palace Athens exceeded our expectations. the view of the Acropolis from our balcony was absolutely breathtaking. the hotel's decor was classy and the staff were friendly and helpful. We loved the central location, as it made it easy for us to walk to all the major historical sites, restaurants, and local markets. the spa was also a dreamy and affordable treat. Plus, the hotel went above and beyond to make our honeymoon extra special with a private transfer, room upgrade, and a bottle of wine waiting for us. Truly exceptional customer service.

Everything was spot on. 👍

The staff is wonderful, particularly the breakfast crew. The breakfast was great, and the balcony view is unbeatable. The room is comfortable and spacious, with phenomenal views of the Acropolis. The bed and pull-out couch are comfy for kids. The location is perfect for tourism, right in the center of everything. The bathroom is spacious and very clean. a great experience.

Felt truly spoilt, no complaint.

Amazing hotel! The location was the best feature, right in the center with everything within walking distance. The staff was attentive, and the pool had a fantastic view. The breakfast area had beautiful views of the Acropolis, and the variety of food was excellent. The hotel's spa and wellness center, outdoor swimming pool, and sun terrace were perfect for relaxation, while nearby landmarks like the Acropolis and Ancient Agora enriched our family bonding experience.

I chose Electra for its proximity to the Acropolis. However, the extra chic All-day Beach Venue pleasantly surprised me. The poolscape and live music performances were delightful.

Service could be improved: details for 5-star hotel.

Friendly staff, great location for shopping and cafes in Plaka neighborhood. Stunning Acropolis view from the cafe. Organized airport and port transfers. Recommended and booked a great restaurant for our group. Central location, no need for metro. Amazing rooftop restaurant view. Polite and helpful staff.

We had a great stay in a centrally located hotel. The room was clean and well appointed, with a spacious bathroom. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the breakfast buffet had a great variety of options. We especially enjoyed the stunning views from the rooftop bar. The hotel's location in the Old Plaka district was perfect, as it was close to everything and just a short walk to the port where we were joining a cruise.

One downside was the noise from neighboring rooms, as there was no soundproofing.

Gleaming lobby with a tinkling chandelier, brimming with luxurious details that make a difference. The hotel is an extraordinary amalgamation of different eras, ethnicities, and cultures - a charming city of today.

Acropolis views from the suites were not as expected.
