Location, location, location!! We were within a 5 min walk to 10+ bars/restaurants. Easy walk to popular destinations. Room was clean and well appointed. Kind of disappointed in the "balcony view".

The staff was very nice and cordial. The location is a stones throw from all restaurants and events. Most of the sites is about 20min walk. The staff was very helpful. They even did a taxi arrangement on the day of taxi strike. Very pleasant stay and will stay again if we went to Athens again.

Newly refurbished hotel in great location in Athens, rooms and bathrooms were nice, friendly and helpful staff, nice breakfast, close to all of Athens major attractions. Close to tube station as well so easy access to the airport and port for our trip to the islands. Recommend staying here we had a great experience.

Staff was very welcoming and friendly. The rooms need updating. The sofa and chair in our room were both stained and dingy. Shower head and fixtures need cleaning. Odor in the lobby faintly smells of sewage or something.

This is a wonderful boutique hotel. Location in central Athens is outstanding. All the staff is extremely friendly and responsive to anything you need. The breakfast buffet is delicious. Front desk manager Kalina was especially helpful when my purse was lost and I needed to contact the tourist police. I couldn't recommend this hotel higher.

Had an amazing stay at the The Residence, the staff were more than helpful and couldn’t do enough for you, can’t praise them enough. Location is superb, rich in the heart of Monistiraki and easy walking to all the main attractions. The room was also great, very clean, great facilities and even had a view of the Acropolis! Would definitely recommend and looking forward to our next stay.

The only negative I would say is that there is not an elevator. A lot of stairs. Didn’t bother us but if you have family members that would have difficulty climbing a few flights of stairs, then it would be an issue for you. The room was great. The hotel was great. Great location because you can walk to a lot of places you will probably be visiting while in Athens.

My cousin was checking in and her backpack was stolen from the lobby. In the backpack was money, identification, medication, etc. We had been there 5 minutes- the hotel had cameras, called the police but ultimately took no responsibility for the situation. The lobby is a part of a private business; it should be a safe environment, especially when checking in. What a horrible start to our vacation!

My experience was really bad. When I entered my room there was a terrible sewer smell. The receptionist tried to fix it but it was the only room available. The place was very noisy and breakfast disappointing. I would not suggest this hotel based on my experience.

8/10

This could easily be excellent vs good. Location is outstanding, hotel is very clean and staff is very friendly and eager to serve. I rated good and not excellent because there is no baggage service before 11 am, and it’s very dangerous to haul luggage down the spiral winding stairs, especially with no rails. If your room is in the Residence, you’re on your own if you have an early departure.

It was a really nice hotel, clean and tidy, with a large room big enough for 3 people. The breakfast included both hot and cold options. The biggest issue was finding somewhere safe to park. You need to plan this before arriving, so you don’t waste ages in downtown traffic!
