Room furnishings are comfortable if plain." Full review

Michelin Guide "In the family since 1976: its decor inspired by the park opposite, with tree trunk pillars and colour-changing leaves."
DK Eyewitness "The refurbishment of this classic business hotel focused on the large, comfortable if not cutting-edge rooms, the best of which face the Pédion Áreos park across the boulevard."
Star Service "This park-view hotel provides a much-needed jolt of freshness in this dusty, traffic-choked city." Full review
