"The hotel has an amazing outdoor area, beautiful views, great swimming pool. You do need a car to get up to the hotel as it is at the top of a steep hill so only a few taxis that the hotel has organised with will take you up. So as long as you plan with this it’s a great stay. Very calming place, would recommend."
"A lovely stay, comfortable and clean. Confusion when it came to checking in, after not getting told about sister hotel. However was sorted quickly.
A lovely quiet island with a great atmosphere if you want a chilled out time. "
"Ideally located by the marina and drop off for the ferry from Athens. Beach and gorgeous bay less that 100m away, with the main Marina strip of restaurants and bars within a few steps walk. Really good room for the price. Stayed here 4 nights. Incredibly helpful and friendly owner. Would recommend. "
"We loved staying here. Amazing views, beautiful pool for the kids and the rooms were clean. The hosts were so friendly, we felt like part of the family. Very accommodating. Would definitely stay here again!"

Top Tower of Markellos Hotel Reviews
Electra Metropolis Athens
10/10 Excellent
"Very comfortable property, excellent service! The rooftop is absolutely the best, breakfast and dinner accompanied by the view of the Acropolis is simply breathtaking and unbeatable. After a busy day of walking and touring the city, the evening dinner on the rooftop can’t be beat. Highly recommend!!!"
"The hotel is only 2 months old and is incredibly clean and in a great location. Very close to a metro station and 7 min walk to the port to catch a ferry. "
"We’ve been staying at the Divani Apollon Palace & Thalasso for almost 20 years. It’s always been our little “hidden gem,” especially while most of our friends opt to stay closer to central Athens.
Last year, we noticed a few hiccups—reduced staffing, less attentiveness around the pool, and some decline in room quality. But this year, everything changed—for the better!
From the moment we checked in, the warm and genuine Greek hospitality returned. We felt that traditional “home” feeling we’ve always loved. The rooms were spotless and, as always, offered breathtaking views of the ocean.
The pool area has been completely redone and looks absolutely stunning. The entire space feels refreshed and inviting. The staff—especially Denai and Petros, along with others whose names escape me—were incredible. They anticipated our needs before we even asked. Their attentiveness and care made us feel truly valued.
Evenings at the bar and restaurant were a highlight. Great atmosphere, excellent food, and exceptional service.
Highly recommend. Absolutely amazing. We can’t wait to return."
