Frommer's "This is an attractive hotel a block south of the Acropolis, near the Herodes Atticus theater." Full review
Insight Guides "The Herodion scores most points for its common areas: the café-restaurant with conservatory seating shaded by wild pistachios... and the roof garden with two Jacuzzi tubs and eyefuls of the Acropolis."
Fodor's "A good compromise between the area's budget venues and deluxe digs, this hospitable hotel is down the street from the Odeon of Herodes Atticus." Full review

Be sure to take full advantage of the hotel's location and ask for a room with an Acropolis view.

DK Eyewitness "The Herodion has lovely common areas: the café-restaurant with patio seating shaded by wild pistachios, and the roof garden with two Jacuzzi tubs and the Acropolis a stone’s throw away."
Rough Guide "This lovely four-star hotel – albeit not quite as luxurious as the exterior and lobby might lead you to believe – enjoys an enviable position right behind the Acropolis."
Star Service "Sitting just above the excellent Athens Gate, consistent maintenance and strong service standards keep this modest hotel moving toward the top of its league." Full review

Michelin Guide "Minimalist bedrooms boast balconies overlooking the city and furnishings made from recycled materials."
Concierge "Overall, it goes down as easily as the huge breakfast that's included in the price."
Fodor's "Years in the making, the New Hotel was heralded as an aesthetic triumph in the inner city's ever-changing landscape when it opened in 2011." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Sexy salvage—Brazilian designers Humberto and Fernando Campana mixed reclaimed furniture with contemporary art by Jenny Holzer and Laurie Anderson and their own offbeat designs." Full review
Star Service "This isn't just a new hotel but a new direction for hotels in Athens. This madcap modern mooring for art-hungry travelers is the boldest bit of real estate in the city, bar none." Full review

"Upscale New Hotel is an intricately designed boutique property... the hotel has a well-regarded restaurant as well as the top-floor Art Lounge." Full review
Afar Magazine "You'll find plenty of traditional Greek touches at NEW Hotel (and a central location), but that's not to say it is a traditional hotel experience." Full review

Don't miss the rooftop bar for cocktails made with Mastic--a better alternative than the Ouzo stuff that has pine-y and creamy with a faint bite of licorice.
Jetsetter "Quirky design hotel with a rooftop lounge and artwork by Greek designers in Athens's hip Plaka neighborhood." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "Details such as Kiehl’s amenities and great bedding do not go amiss. Perhaps even better than the design, is the food." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"This city-centre hotel incorporates the long-standing history and modern, hip culture of Athens through its beautiful contemporary design and imaginative spaces." Full review
