In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
3 reasons to book- Sea views and a prime coastal location — Many rooms have balconies with sea views, and the hotel is close to the beach and Glyfada's shops. It's also within easy reach of the Athens Golf Club.
- Renovated, spotless interiors — Guests consistently praise the brand-new rooms and the updated lobby and dining areas, which give the property a fresh, stylish feel.

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Breakfast can get crowded — Several guests noted that breakfast times are busy, so you may need to plan around the rush.
- Check-in window is very tight — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 15:30, which is an unusually narrow window and may be inconvenient for some travelers.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so if you're traveling with an animal, you'll need to look elsewhere.
