“The hotel charmed me with its poetic theme and intimate size, and I particularly like that the decor is inspired by famous Greek poets; moreover, its location in the historic Plaka district puts the Acropolis Museum and Temple of Olympion Zeus within easy reach. I think the rooftop terrace, with its Acropolis view, is a standout.”
