      Charming old and clean place, well organised and competent staff. Good food combined with a really great service. Magnificent and unbeatable location, good area, near to the Acropolis and Athens National Garden and Syntagma Square. Besides, easy to get to an ancient citadel.

      Beautiful and comfortable room, gorgeous pool and sitting areas, perfect location to see Acropolis and new museum, rooftop bar and restaurant is not to be believed! View from rooftop has to be the best in Athens. Go to see Acropolis late in the day to avoid the crowds and see it in the gentle light of sunset...you won't be disappointed.

      Location '- could not be better in Athens. All important sights at a walking distance -and could even be seen from the window. A nice shopping and restaurant district in the old city also nearby. Luxurious , comfortable rooms in the upscale category, and a fabulous breakfast with a breathtaking view to Acropolis and the Temple of Zeus

      disappointing room
      staff response

      The hotel features a stunning pool area and is in a fantastic location, just a short walk from major attractions. However, the room we received initially was disappointing, with cleanliness issues and disrepair. While the staff was friendly, the response to our concerns could have been better.

      The hotel is ideally placed and within easy walking distance both for the Plaka and the Acropolis. The rooms facing the pool area are quiet. The rooms were very clean. The price for the room was ok. The breakfast was outstanding - with a large variety of dishes. The pool and the pool area looked good - but late March was a little too early for bathing - but it must be nice when it is warmer to have the opportunity to cool down in a pool in the middle of a big city.

      The roof-restaurant probably has the most fantastic view over Athens and the Acropolis. There is no doubt that the chef is very ambitious - and the service is very good. But it is very expensive and the choice on the menu is very limited. The evening we dined there, the restaurant was practically empty. If the restaurant had more choices in a reasonable price range - much more people could enjoy the restaurant and its fantastic setting.

      The view from the seventh floor is magnificient especially at night, the staff are very courteous and helpful, and the hotel is very clean.

      We didn't like the idea of going out of the hotel to access the business centre/internet office. For security reasons, the business centre should be located within the hotel

      great location
      magnificent pool

      Staying at royal olympic was fantastic! The location is perfect, just a stone's throw from the temple of zeus. The views from the 7th-floor dining area are fine, especially while enjoying breakfast. The pool is magnificent, nestled in a beautiful garden full of trees and flowers. Staff were friendly.

      do recommend
