Hotel Electra Palace Athens

Really disappointed with this stay. I stayed here for four days and paid around €3,000, which I honestly regret. I would not stay here again. The hotel is very central, and the lobby looks nice, but that’s unfortunately the only positive part of the experience. The rooms are extremely noisy — we woke up at least 10 times every night because you can hear absolutely everything. If someone coughs in the next room, you hear it clearly. The hotel is also not well maintained and definitely not worth the price. The furniture feels heavily used, the cleanliness standards were disappointing, and overall it did not feel hygienic. The rooms are also very small for what you pay. Even the bathroom was extremely tiny. My husband could barely move inside it, and one of us had to leave the bathroom for the other person to enter comfortably. For this price range, I would much rather stay slightly outside the city in a cleaner, quieter, and better-maintained hotel with proper service.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ A charming Oasis in the Heart of Athens "We had a wonderful stay at this lovely, medium-sized hotel right in the city center of Athens. The location is absolutely perfect—you can easily walk to almost all the major tourist sites with plenty of dining options nearby. The hotel staff was incredibly professional and attentive, always ready to help with any request and provide excellent, practical tips for exploring the city. One of our absolute favorite features was the fourth floor, which boasts a beautiful pool and a bar offering stunning views of the city and the Acropolis. For meals, the top-floor garden restaurant was fantastic, serving a delicious breakfast in the morning and transforming into a romantic, scenic setting for dinner in the evening. On the first floor, the hotel's cafe and bar, Zohós, offered another set of excellent and creative dining options. The classic rooms include wonderful breakfast options, though we did find the rooms and bathrooms to be a bit on the smaller, more confining side. While our room's interior could benefit from a few modern updates, it was exceptionally clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. Highly recommended for its incredible hospitality, prime location, and unbeatable views!" It’s worth looking into their Superior or Junior Suite categories since the "Classic" rooms are almost always tight.

We recently had a wonderful one-night stay at the Electra Palace Hotel in Athens. The location was excellent, close to the Acropolis and within easy walking distance of fantastic shopping for traditional Greek gifts and clothing as well as traditional Greek restaurants. The views were amazing from the hotel, especially from the rooftop restaurant, which offers sweeping views of Athens and the Acropolis. The guest services team was outstanding, especially Sophia and Christina. They helped us by email and in person with private tours of Athens, transportation to and from the hotel, and securing day tickets to visit the Acropolis. One tip: don’t wait too long to buy Acropolis tickets, as they can sell out for day visits. We almost learned that the hard way. Between the location, the views, the rooftop restaurant, and the exceptional service, this was a truly memorable stay. Highly recommend!

This hotel was perfect! The location is ideal as it is within walking distance to several great places. The rooftop restaurant and bar were awesome and the staff was wonderful. The room was a suite with balcony overlooking the Acropolis. It was really beautiful and well appointed the little touches made it very special. We highly recommend this hotel and we are very picky when it comes to hotels. Loved it!

Idéalement placé , spa sympa pas immense mais ils limitent l’accès à des créneau horaires pour éviter la cohue ce qui rend l’expérience très calme et agréable . , la vue depuis la salle du petit dej/restaurant est juste incroyable . L’hôtel est beau et propre , le personnel très pro . Juste une curiosité , il n’y avait pas de prise électrique vers le lit en 2026 pas très pratique .

We had an absolutely lovely stay at the Electra Palace in Athens. The hotel is conveniently located in the centre of the Plaka neighborhood, close to many shops and restaurants. The acropolis is an easy 15 minute walk. We had both breakfast and dinner at the 8th floor restaurant which has a beautiful view of the acropolis and city of Athens. The food was incredible. The room was well kept and comfortable. The staff were very helpful making recommendations and booking our taxi. An amazing stay!
