The Stanley
Big family room, great roof top bar and pool area - better than those in the city centre. Great breakfast. Only downside was the loud banging and maintenance work being done in the early hours / mornings. Would have been nice to have known this before arriving to see about moving rooms or changing ...

Grand Hyatt Athens
Great launch point hotel for a stay in Athens! Clean, functional, quiet and comfortable. Especially appreciated is the second floor (mezzanine level) welcome area where breakfast and afternoon meal buffets are presented (no fee). Would return.
