Central location in Glyfada. Shops and restaurants are about a 5 minute walk southeast. The tram to the city center runs every 10...15 minutes and the stop was about a 4 minute walk. Very friendly staff at reception. As our trip was in February we didn't visit the beach but it was over the Posidonos avenue what means 4...5 minutes walk to reach the sea.
Small street noise via window. They could be better isolated.

The hotel served as my home base for my travels throughout Greece. As a result, the location was excellent for getting into Athens on the tram, connecting to the highway system for my daytrips to Evia, the Peloponnese, and to use the ferry service for a bit of island hopping. The location was close to shopping, and a wide variety of restaurants and cafes.
While the lobby was great, the restaurant was good for a vegetarian, the room was in need of a bit of updating. The onsite parking capacity was adequate.

Excellent breakfast variety... perfect location , walking distance to beach although pool was quite adequate with excellent menu served poolside. Staff was of the highest competence and very accommodating. Everything arranged timeously...
Door access cards were a bit wonky a d had to, on occasion be jiggled to unlock the door, but not a big problem as door always opened in the end.

Nice staff, pool area was great, very close walk to Glyfada centre and not too far from nearby beaches
Place could do with a bit of a refurb Was a little pricey ( we paid approx 200 euro p/night) for what you got

Bartender was very friendly, as were all of the staff. Bar prices for drink AND food were very good.
The sound from the busy road out front was loud even with the balcony door closed. It also looked like a lot of the rooms near me were being renovated which was also noisy during the day.

Lovely staff and well appointed rooms. Great variety in hot and cold meals.
I found it hard getting out of the pool. The pool could have done with steps with a handrail.
