"Best
Hotel in Athens"
This is the best hotel in Athens. Great rooms, location,
and staff. If you can stay here, we think it was well
worth the price. I highly recommend it. Not only because
of the luxury (not to mention the best breakfast view
of the Acropolis), but also because of the location. The
rooms were very clean and well-sized. Great bathrooms
too - especially for Europe. |

As
soon as you start walking around Plaka's stone-paved, narrow streets,
you will have the feeling that you are travelling back in time. This is
Athens' oldest and, thanks to the restoration efforts which went into
its buildings in recent years, most picturesque neighbourhood. You will
be delighted by the beauty of the neo-classical colours of its houses,
their architecture, their lovingly tended little gardens, the elegance,
and the total atmosphere of the area. In Plaka, even the air is different;
lighter, clearer, scented, like a gift from the gods. More
