Concierge
"The value is not to be sneezed at. Especially if you're cool enough to take advantage of the scene-y rooftop pool and Air Lounge Roof Bar."
Fodor's
"Reveling in minimalist glam, this attractive boutique hotel has relaxing and expertly decorated rooms, a plugged-in staff, and two restaurants that feature nouvelle-Mediterranean cuisine." Full review
Travel + Leisure

DK Eyewitness
"The closest design hotel to the town centre, Fresh combines minimalist chic with shockingly vibrant colours, right down to the balcony partitions."
Rough Guide
"Glossy, high-end hotel in the heart of the market area. Lavish use of colour, elegant furnishings and great lighting and bathrooms, though you do wonder how long it will stay looking fresh."
Star Service
"Around the corner from Kotzia Square and the central food market hall, 300 meters from the Omonia metro station, this is one of the city's most notable recent arrivals." Full review
