Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was in an excellent location, just two blocks from the metro with a convenient grocery store nearby. The rooms, although small for a family, were spacious and well-equipped. The staff was lovely and very friendly, providing exceptional service. The dining options were varied and enjoyable, offering a fantastic choice for all. However, the decor seemed a bit dated and not up to current standards for a luxurious experience.
The hotel offers a blend of comfort and friendliness, with a great location near the metro and local amenities. The dining experience is decent but may not suit all preferences. Overall, a convenient and pleasant stay with good value for money.
My stay at the hotel was both pleasant and slightly disappointing. The location was almost perfect, close to shopping and conveniently located in the center of Athens. The rooms were neat, clean, and quiet, but smaller than expected from the photos. The service was excellent and very helpful, yet the dining experience was not up to par with the pricing and star rating.
The room, just one floor below the rooftop restaurant, was a good size, kept very clean, and had a balcony that would be really nice in warmer weather. The staff throughout the hotel were really friendly and helpful. The location, slightly outside the busy shopping/tourist areas but with easy taxi access, offered a spectacular rooftop morning view of the city. The dining experience, from the covered rooftop breakfast area, was great especially the fresh orange juice. The facilities were top-notch with room service, car hire, dry cleaning, housekeeping, laundry, and even a welcome drink available to guests.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were always clean and fresh with great service from the staff, but the dim lighting made it hard to see and there was a lingering cigarette smell. The service was top-notch as the staff were well trained, polite, and always helpful. The location was good, being close to the metro and gardens, but slightly far from the center of Athens. The dining experience offered a good variety of options, although the menu could be more diverse. Overall, a comfortable stay with friendly staff and some room for improvement.
The hotel rooms were quite big, neat, and clean, cozy enough to accommodate 2 people sufficiently, which is typical in Europe. The decor was lovely for a large chain, spacious, and well-equipped, with a very comfortable bed that could easily fit a family. The service was very helpful and accommodating, offering local recommendations and assistance with various arrangements. The location was convenient for metro travel and close to main attractions. The dining experience varied from low quality to superb, depending on the meal served. Overall, a great stay with some minor drawbacks.
The Crowne Plaza hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with a nice terrace, though a bit far requiring a taxi to reach the city center. The service was extremely good, especially in meeting dietary needs, providing local recommendations, and arranging tours. The location is central, though slightly outside the main tourist areas, offering easy access by taxi or metro. The dining options were adequate, with a highlight on freshly squeezed orange juice. Overall, a convenient and comfortable stay.
