5/5 Excellent

"The hotel has an outstanding view of the Acropolis from room 509. It's across the street to Monastriaki Square and Metro station. We booked a Junior suite with Acropolis view and it was very nice with modern fixtures and a sofa. The square below can get a little noisy with music in the evenings but window closing took care of most of the noise. We enjoyed our stay and will look forward to returning on another trip to Athens.

"Sisters' birthday weekend in Athens . we had only 2 days and the St George is perfect if you want to maximize your time/experience in Greece. The best location as it is walking distance from all major attractions. Acropolis, Plaka, Museums, Squares (Syndagma, Omonia, Monastiraki, Kolonaki,etc ) We even had time to climb the Lycabettus and escape to the coast for a dip into the sea. "

"One of the nicest rooms we have ever stayed in at this price point. We had a Deluxe room which gave us a little extra space and a location behind the hotel which minimised any road noise. Super clean, modern, huge bed, well lit (I hate modern hotels lack of lighting), with good aircon and a powerful walk in shower. Nespresso coffee machine with free capsules. 10 minutes walk to the Acropolis. 5 mins down the road is the subway station surrounded by coffee shops and restaurants/bars. Above the hotel on the road behind (Acropolis Select) is the 180 degrees West rooftop bar and restaurant with spectacular sunset and Acropolis views. Bread Factory bakery was outstanding South of subway. Kalamaki Bar for delicious salads and Souvlaki. We always felt safe here in the early evening as there were plenty of people about. Only negative is that the Siggrou Fix subway has a reputation for travellers with cases or backpacks being robbed (as do several other city stations) so we took a fixed price yellow cab to/from airport. And yes the lift is small but fits 2 people with suitcases so who cares!"

"Staff was great. We checked in a bit early with no problems and even received a free room upgrade. They helped us arrange a cab to the airport and gave great tourist info. Their rooftop restaurant has amazing views of the acropolis and their breakfast there rivals the view. "
