Katheni Holidays from AU$2,205

Beautiful location, less than ideal room- good for families that don’t love their kids but want a resort vibe. Poolside bar playing music with generally mixed age crowd singing ABBA, Jon Bon Jovi, and Justin Timberlake until wee hours of morning tryna “get lucky”. Food in hotel restaurant subpar, but hotel staff was great! Really lovely folk & the waitress was excellent at her job. Close to airport, which is great, but don’t expect a ton of sleep the night before you fly!

My husband and I spent 2 nights in this lovely boutique hotel in the heart of Athens. From the moment of our arrival, Dimi greeted us warmly and was a wealth of information on the area and recommended sights. He was genuinely interested in making our stay as comfortable as possible, concerned with our transfers to and from the port/ airport. He is a wonderful first impression for the Pinnacle Hotel as are the other front desk staff. The location is excellent, we walked to the Plaka area to shop, drink coffee/eat, strolled through the fish and meat market. We did a hop on, hop off bus to get an overview of the city, went to the Parthenon. Everything was a walkable distance. We had 2 delicious dinners on the rooftop patio overlooking the Parthenon. Thank you to our lovely, smiling server Evie for taking such good care of us! Breakfast was a delicious, pleasant surprise with lots of variety. The room was clean and comfortable, and although the sounds of the city and early morning church bells might not appeal to some, we found it all charming capturing the essence of the city. Most enjoyable stay. Hope we can return one day! Many thanks to all!

Not what I expected based on the description.

The area of around hotel was ruff and a lot of writing on the wall. Almost every building had writing on it. The staff was very helpful and kind to English speaking people. This was our 4 time staying at a Melia property. .

The staff was very accommodating. The area was noisy due to being a very popular area and on a major corner. The breakfast buffet was disappointing. The food did not look appetizing and there was not much variety.
