“The Stanley's rooftop pool and bar, with its Acropolis vista, is a genuine draw, setting it apart from many Athens hotels. Its proximity to the Metaxourgio Metro stop also makes navigating the city simple. While some may find the rooms basic, the hotel's meeting facilities cater well to business needs.”

Decent hotel stay
breakfast choice rooftop view unfriendly reception missing benefits
The breakfast offered many choices and tasted really good. I saw a variety of options were available, and it was all fresh. The rooftop area was lovely, but it got busy. The view from up there I thought was great.
The staff at reception were not particularly friendly. I found them rather curt. I did not receive an upgrade nor any extra benefits with my room. I felt this was a little disappointing given the hotel class.

solid stay with acropolis views
comfortable loungers diverse breakfast excellent food
i appreciated the rooftop pool a lot it had comfortable loungers and a fine view of the acropolis. the breakfast buffet was diverse with many options for different diets and preferences. the metro station was conveniently close making it easy to explore different areas. the rooftop restaurant provided excellent food and drinks at sunset.
the area surrounding the building looked a bit rundown and didn't feel entirely safe especially during the evening hours. this made me rely more on taxis or the metro even for short distances. i would have preferred a more appealing environment right outside the hotel.
