Frommer's "The elegant Peacock Lounge has become one of the most popular bar/restaurants in the city -- especially a little after sunset for its breathtaking views." Full review
Fodor's "Attention to elegant detail—the lobby's marble floors, wood paneling, and leather sofas—reigns at this boutique hotel." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Refurbished as a boutique hotel, the Hera’s rooms are on the small side but lack for nothing; it’s worth paying extra for fifth floor suites with bigger balconies."
Star Service "This exemplary small hotel has an elegant traditional spark and standout service that make it one of the more attractive small hotels here." Full review
OysterUpper-middle-range
"An upper-mid-range boutique hotel located on the edge of the Plaka neighborhood... the main draw here is Peacock, the rooftop restaurant offering great views of the Acropolis." Full review
Jetsetter "Cozy crash pad in the shadow of the Acropolis with a rooftop restaurant overlooking the Parthenon." Full review
EuroCheapo "We consider Hera splurge-worthy for its relative affordability, its great location, and its inviting high-end atmosphere." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"This elegant boutique hotel, a short walk from the Acropolis and Plaka, was totally rebuilt but the formal interior design is in keeping with the lovely neoclassical facade." Full review

Rough Guide "This slightly old-fashioned, family-owned pension with many repeat customers is named for its abundance of original artworks."
Fodor's "Comfortably old-fashioned, with family paintings on the muted white walls, comfortable beds, hardwood floors, ceiling fans, and balconies in many guest rooms that offer views of Filopappou." Full review
EuroCheapo Editor's Pick
"Just north of pedestrian street Drakou in the extremely pleasing residential neighborhood of Koukaki, Art Gallery Hotel is a great option for travelers seeking a quiet inn just off the tourist path." Full review
Frommer's "Rooms are petite and furnished with an eclectic mixture of Victoriana including marble-topped tables and ceiling fans...there is a pleasing view of the Acropolis from the rooftop bar/lounge" Full review
