Frommer's "This hotel is popular with Greeks, who prefer its modern conveniences to the old-fashioned charms of most other hotels in the area." Full review
Fodor's "Comfortable... the guest rooms in this charming, central hotel are a comfortable place to rest while in the heart of old Athens." Full review

There are no suites or connecting rooms here, and the best rooms to request are those recently renovated or the panoramic Acropolis Double rooms with small scenic balconies.

"In an excellent location for sightseeing... the rooftop lounge is the highlight of the hotel with its comfortable seating and stunning views of the Acropolis." Full review

"Perfect for visitors to Athens who want to do the sights without any fuss, Plaka offers comfortable, modern rooms and an open-air rooftop bar, close to the Acropolis." Full review
EuroCheapo "The three-star Hotel Plaka is not a flashy place. First and foremost, it's a capable hotel located at the edge of Plaka, bordering Monastiraki.
Room furnishings are comfortable if plain." Full review
Frommer's "Great location, inspiring Acropolis view from rooftop café, and perfectly decent...balcony rooms on the fifth and sixth floors have fine views over the Plaka, while some have Acropolis views." Full review
Lonely Planet "It’s hard to beat the Acropolis views from the rooftop garden at this refurbished hotel, which you also enjoy from the top-floor rooms." Full review

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."

"The clue is in the name at the Acropolis View Hotel, where views of Athens' iconic monument are as good as its proximity to it." Full review
Frommer's "Rooms are on the small side, simply furnished, but most are freshly painted each year...it's a 15-minute walk from the Acropolis View into the heart of the Plaka." Full review
