Cut off from
Acropolis & ancient core (longer, uphill return)
Nearest metro a walk away
Rooms & rate
What you're paying for
Rooms across several categories with a pool on site; the view rooms and rooftop are the draw, looking over the city toward the Acropolis. Request a view category explicitly, as interior or lower rooms miss the panorama that justifies the hillside location.
