"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

"Tucked in a side street off Ermou, this small, family-friendly hotel is a little characterless, but it is modern and comfortable, with good facilities and a very handy location." Full review

"The exterior of this hotel just off pedestrianized Ermoú is deceptively bland. Inside, earth-toned rooms with small balconies are matched by the colour scheme and stone dressing in the lobby."

"This hotel's central location and reasonable prices may explain why it is often full...rooms 603–607 have good Acropolis views. Rooms in the new building, added in 2000, are more up-to-date." Full review
