The perfect place to end our stay in Greece. Even just for one night. The team looked after our group with care and their service went above and beyond expectations. The Rooftop team were exceptional! Such incredible food and beverage service and the dishes rivalled the view of the acropolis for sure.
A fabulous position for exploring all the sughts. Easy to find from train stations and rooms were clean and well kept. Breakfast was disappointing but had a goodcrange of you arbt fussy. The rooftop bar was amazing. We had dinner but that also wasnt to my taste and quite expected compare to other resturants we had eaten in. Wine was lovely as were desserts.

Perfect location. Clean & safe area. Rooftop views are amazing.
Hotel bien ubicado, personal amable y atento con nuestras necesidades, cercal al metro. Lo malo nos robaron a la llegada en el metro, grupo de 10 personas, tener cuidado en la ciudad, carteristas
Would like to take this opportunity to recommend Pláka Hotel because of the staff making our stay in Athens more comfortable and convenient. Big shoutout to Andreas in the lobby who was super kind in helping us retrieve something we forgot at an airport in another Greek island. Hotel could use a little update with their facilities but the helpful staff makes up for it. The view from the rooftop is also a huge reason to stay.
Wonderful, welcoming staff and incredible view of the Acropolis from both our room and the rooftop bar. Hotel a little dated, but well-maintained, clean and comfortable. Well located for public transport links and all the main attractions. Very reasonably priced.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooftop area was brilliant for taking breaks. Just a very busy, noisy location in the centre of town was problematic for me and family.
Loved this hotel! The rooms were very clean and comfortable. The view from the roof top restaurant was amazing! The location was perfect and the staff were all friendly and accommodating.
The location is excellent, the staff are very friendly and helpful (a special thank you to Eva!), the breakfast is wonderful and the view from the roof garden is spectacular.
Brilliant hotel. Everything was perfect, room spotless and a brilliant shower, location is second to none, breath taking rooftop bar with an unbelievable view and excellent menu. The Best thing about the hotel is the staff, especially Eva who spoke to us every morning about our plans for the day and went out of her way to help in any way she could. Thanks so much Eva!!
Very noisy the first two nights. Saturday night was surprisingly quiet. Shower was a bathtub that came up to my mid thigh. I had a hard time not slipping getting in and out of the tub/shower.
Loved the view of the Acropolis! Our room was comfortable and clean. A little noisy at 1000 at night with people in the next room but that isn’t the hotel s fault.
They did not have wash clothes to wash our bodies in the bathroom.
When asked at the front desk ,they didn't know what the wash cloths were.
They told us they did not use those.
Excellent service from Eva at reception.
A definite asset to the Plaka Hotel. Comfortable room, breakfast is always exceptional.
I’m a repeat guest. Returning in a few days.
Location is fabulous.
Staff was attentive and helpful. Beds were so comfy. Individual comforters. Breakfast was varied, plentiful and tasty. The rooftop bar had an amazing view. Hidden gem in the best part of Athens. Walking to historic sites was doable for walkers.
