The location. The breakfast.

Very noisy. Especially in the morning from 8 am from other guests that opened their room and let their young children play out of their room and drive all the neighbour rooms insane. The hotel is a bit dated.

I had a truly exceptional experience! The hotel’s rooftop is undoubtedly a highlight, offering stunning, unobstructed views of the Acropolis. Having breakfast on the rooftop while overlooking this iconic landmark is an unforgettable way to start the day. The rooftop also transforms into a magical dining spot in the evening, with the Acropolis beautifully illuminated. The location of the hotel is fantastic—situated right in the heart of Athens, it’s within walking distance of all the major attractions, shops, and restaurants. Whether you want to explore Plaka, visit the Acropolis Museum, or shop in Monastiraki, everything is conveniently close by. The hotel also features both indoor and outdoor pools, giving guests plenty of options to relax and unwind after a day of sightseeing. Another standout feature was the incredible service!! Every staff member was warm, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The cleanliness of the hotel was impeccable—every area, from the lobby to the rooms, was spotless and well-maintained.

My mum and I had the most wonderful stay at Electra Palace Athens! From the moment we arrived, we felt like princesses thanks to the incredibly warm and smiley customer service. The staff were always there to check on us, making sure we had everything we needed. The hotel itself was spotless, very comfortable, and beautifully maintained. One of the highlights was the breathtaking view of the Acropolis from the rooftop restaurant—absolutely unforgettable! Even though the swimming pool was under renovation, we had access to the pool at the sister hotel, Electra Metropolis, just a short 2-minute walk away, which was a perfect alternative. Overall, we are beyond happy with our stay and will cherish these memories for a long time. Thank you to the entire team for making our trip so special!

A lovely hotel. Traditionally elegant decor and furniture. Excrptional lication for their rooftop restaurant where a very good breakfast is served . The views if the Acropolis are just as shown on their website from the rooftop. Lovely swimming pool also with great views..Room spacious and comfortable. Everything we needed. Staff very obliging and housekeeping staff thorough.. Excellent air conditioning and room very quiet apart from odd street noise - we were at the front of the hotel. Short walks to a great selection restaurants and cafes. Tourist shopping and high street/ high-end shops only a few minutes away. 10 minute walk to hop on hop off and public transport options.

The location is absolutely fantastic, right in the heart of the city and close to everything—historic landmarks, restaurants, and public transport are all just a short walk away. The staff were exceptional—very friendly, cooperative, and always willing to help with anything we needed. Their dedication truly made our experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

The only downside was that the walls seemed quite thin, and you could hear what was going on in the neighboring rooms. This did affect the overall comfort at times, but otherwise, everything else was great.

Our room was a "triple" and comfortably slept 3 and could easily sleep 4 (especially if some were children). There were two full beds and the couch was done up as a separate bed and was extremely comfortable. Sheets were great. They had room attendants three times a day! The curtains kept the morning sun out and allowed us to sleep in. Breakfast was included and was exceptional. The service was great all around. I ordered a bucket of ice through room service and it was at my door in 5 minutes.

The pool was nice but the hours were limited (10am to 8pm). We would have swam before going out in the morning. It was always quite crowded but spots opened up every 10-15 minutes. The bean bag chairs were surprisingly comfortable. Families definitely camped out on the shaded lounges so those were hard to come by.

Luxury property with rooms and interior finished to a high elegant standard. The hotels close proximity to everything is excellent .The roof top restaurant with its magnificent close view of the Acropolis especially at sunrise and sunset is simply breathtaking . The variety and quality of the abundant breakfast will not disappoint even the fussiest people as it is excellent. All the staff are wonderful especially Aggeliki in the restaurant and Georgia on the front counter who both went out of her way each day to assist us…. Thank You.

The pool area was a bit tight but with real estate being so precious in this location it’s understandable as most hotels do not have a pool.

Location, Location, Location! Electra Palace has that in spades! Our room’s view was simply breathtaking! Seriously, sitting out on our balcony and looking at the Parthenon lit up in the night sky….well, that is worth every penny we paid! Add to that the most helpful staff, a breakfast buffet to die for and just the yummiest smelling bath soap and lotion!! We were in absolute heaven!!!

I mean the price was a bit steeper than we usually pay but I’m telling you….save your pennies and splurge on the suite with a view of the Parthenon or better yet the Presidential suite! You will NOT regret it! I mean how often are you vacationing in Athens??

Friendly polite staff, good choice and picturesque Acropolis view at breakfast, comfortable accomodation. 5-7 minutes walk to all the central sights and cultural places, a lot of nice cafes and restaurants around. Liked it all about the hotel.

Some small details to pay attention (didn't spoil the general impression, but could be improved) It would be great to add porridge at breakfast menu Outside pool water was really freezing (wish it could have been heated) Only one hook in the bathroom (not enough to hang towels for all the members of the family), no special dryer system to dry one's swimsuit after the pool.

The location was great, central and walkable to everything we wanted to do for our one night stay in Athens. Breakfast buffet was good, that was the only meal we ate there. The view from the restaurant is lovely. The staff were all very nice. We got in super early in the morning, they kept our bags while we went to eat and then we came back to use the pool while we waited on the room. We got to check in a couple of hours earlier which was really great. This hotel is definitely more expensive than the many listed nearby but I felt it was good value for what we paid for one night.

We enjoyed the lounge chairs at the pool, and there were a good amount of them for the small space but would have liked a little more shade.
