Could not have been better”

Beautiful building and room. The shower was clean and had several relaxing and powerful settings. We were given brownies and champagne at checkin, as well as free drinks in the mini fridge. There was a huge window looking out to the street and many TV channels for my kids. Breakfast was served because of covid, there were hot options as well as fruit, cereal and baked goods. The cost was less than the chain hotels in Athens. There was a delicious pizza place a few blocks away I walked to, that was also five stars. It was amazing. I would absolutely stay again.

Great Hotel”

This was a great place to stay that was very close to Court Street. Our room was very clean and spacious. When we checked in, we were greeted with champagne and small brownies. Breakfast was included in our stay and was nice and they even offered free mimosas. For being within walking distance to Court Street, it's worth the extra money you will spend to stay here. Only downfall is the walls are not insulated very well and we could hear our neighbors easily through them. But still a great place that I would stay at again.

Fantastic”

Great boutique hotel. Location can't be beat. Champagne upon arrival was a nice touch. A couple complimentary beers, sodas and waters in the fridge. Modern, nice hotel. Huge flat screen TV was nice to watch the game as we're drifting off to sleep. Breakfast was good: eggs, sausage, bacon, bagels, waffles... pretty hard to beat. Parking was easy and complimentary. Surprisingly quiet, given it's downtown location. Absolute no brainer
