Lonely Planet
"Set in a very quiet back street on the slopes of the Filopappou hill, this place is very close to the entrance to the Acropolis and, as it promises, offers some excellent views of that famous citadel." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Many rooms at this small hotel, located on a quiet street near the Acropolis, live up to the hotel’s name, as does the popular roof garden."
Rough Guide
"The location is the main attraction here, in what looks like a 1970s apartment block: rooms are small and a bit tired, though a/c and marble bathrooms are pluses."
