Hera Hotel

The room I was given wasn’t to par. The shower was full of mold in the tile grout and the shower door. Also, there were flies in the room and bathroom. There was a vent in the ceiling, which is just an access to the water pipes and ventilation system. The vent is exposed therefore making the room noisy from a the running water in the building. The staff was professional and did try to switch my room but it wasn’t worth it because I was checking out a few hours later.

The location is very hard to beat. The price even harder. Thomas and Demetrius were very helpful at the front desk. They arranged our taxi for us and gave us suggestions where to eat or get a coffee that weren’t just typical tourist attractions. The room was smaller, but it’s Europe after all. Plenty of room to sleep and store things. Our first meal was at the rooftop restaurant of the Hera and the staff were wonderful there too. The food was outstanding. I highly recommend the lamb shank. Each morning we ate breakfast at the hotel. Again, the staff was top notch and the food selections were plentiful. They will even make eggs to order if you desire. Next door is a fun little bar with reasonable prices. Across the street is few restaurants and a taproom. Overall, the location is tough to beat. The view of the Acropolis is just a bonus! Overall, I give this a 5 out of 5 and highly recommend the hotel to others.

Super helpful staff, beautiful room, delicious and fast room service, and the view was out of this world. 100% recommend and would stay again.

Everything was super close and best location for a short stay to visit the Acropolis and right by the subway. Restaurant was great too, amazing views.

This is a mixed review.. We arrived a few days early for to tour that was starting two days later. The first room we were given was terrible. It was Room 407. Very hot even with the window open and this was in February. The air conditioner made a lot of noise. The bathroom while large had major problems. The bath/shower was missing a panel and the others were loose. (I asked one of the maids if it was missing a panel and she said it was.). To make matters worse, the toilet paper was located close to where the panel was missing resuting in wet paper. Stay away from any room that ends in a 7. I can only imagine how hot it must be in the summer. We were able to change rooms the next day. Street side is much better (even if you have to pay slightly more). The new room was fairly large, very clean and with a nice bathroom. The staff here is very good and is the location. The first night we got in late evening and decided to eat at the restaurant. We were the only ones in the room with a fantastic view of the Acropolis. The food was wonderful. I had the grilled squid and my husband enjoyed a braised veal. Don't expect this quality if your tour dines here. That meal so only so-so. The breakfasts are very good with lots of choices. If our first room did not have al these issues, I would definitely give this hotel a top rating.

The Location of the hotel so close to the old town and Acropolis Museum is a real plus. Some rooms have Acropolis views from a small balcony as does the rooftop restaurant. A very pretty and well maintained little hotel.

Rooms are small! Hard to find space to open two regular suitcases. Bathtub with shower, can you ”jump” into a high European tub?? Elderly people with new joints might have a problem… Very nice breakfast, fantastic location and very nice staff! How can you beat the view of a light up Parthenon, from your pillow, when you wake up in the middle of the night???

Very nice hotel loved it. Friendly staff very informative.

Beautiful hotel with views of Acropolis from the rooftop restaurant. Excellent customer service, excellent food, great location with many restaurants, coffee shops, and sites to see within walking distance.

Great hotel. Awesome breakfast

Amazing hotel. Lovely decor. Staff is so friendly . Room very clean . You must do a Turkish Hammam Turkish bath . Spa was lovely . Would love to stay here again !

Staff were very helpful and the room was always clean

Great staff and an especially helpful front desk team.

Got an inside view room on a court between buildings where workers usually smoke. Noisy shared plumbing, very small rooms and bathrooms. OK basic breakfast. No AC and if you leave patio open you will contend with mosquitos. Closeness to Plaka is good but there are better options for less cost. Nice night shift attendant “Constantinos” who helped us with bags.

Room was very clean, furniture in good shape and all closet doors had recently been painted. Everything worked as it should. The front desk staff was exceptional and helpful if I am back in Athens this is the first place that I would wish to stay

Lovely room but no stopper in the bathtub and no shampoo..however, lovely entrance, great location and very nice front desk staff. Breakfast was adequate but missing essentials like Greek yogurt .

Great stay at Hera Hotel- perfect view on the Parthenon. Great staff and a plethora of dinning options near the hotel

Clean, ok balcony was nice

Very helpful staff. Some rooms have great views. Breakfast was good.

Everything is good so far
