Athens Studios
This was such a great location. We walked around the acropolis park and enjoyed the local cafes and restaurants very much. I wouldn't want to stay in any other part of the city. Our room was a double; quite small but very affordable for the location.

Herodion Athens
Herodion is in a very good area with lovely staff. My room had a little balcony with views of the Acropolis; there's also a roof garden with even better views of it. The lobby area is also very cozy to hang out. The breakfast was ok but not the best. Recommended.
