A small hotel located in a quiet street very near the Plaka. Check in was easy and staff was very accommodating. Rooms are on the small side, but they were comfortable and the air conditioning worked really well. I thought the breakfast buffet was wonderful with a nice variety including eggs, bacon, sausage, pastries, yogurt, deli meats, croissants etc. Hotel allowed us to store luggage after check out before we had to transfer to Piraeus for our cruise.

Great location in Plaka, just a few blocks from Plaka restaurants and Acropolis in one direction, Syntagma Metro stop in other direction. Helpful staff. Comfy beds. Decent breakfast buffet. Property is a bit dated. Hotel next-door has great rooftop restaurant/bar with a terrific acropolis view.

Hermes Hotel was amazing! The staff was super helpful. The property was very clean. The room was lovely, and I even had my own balcony! The complimentary breakfast was lovely. Everything about the place is great. It is located very close to many of the main attractions of old city Athens. Aspro Alogo is a lovely restaurant just down the street. Lycabettus hill is merely a stroll away. There is no reason not to stay here!
