Don't miss the rooftop bar for cocktails made with Mastic--a better alternative than the Ouzo stuff that has pine-y and creamy with a faint bite of licorice.

Mr & Mrs Smith
"Details such as Kiehl’s amenities and great bedding do not go amiss. Perhaps even better than the design, is the food." Full review

Minimally furnished balconies are standard, but the ones to request are those eyeing the Acropolis.
