O&B Athens Boutique Hotel

We booked two rooms at the O&B Athens boutique hotel, Greece from 18-24 Jan and must say, we're most disappointed with the hotel and services. HOTEL: We booked a) Grand Suite (Acropolis view) and b) Basic Suite (Acropolis view): 1. The flooring is very old and badly stained. 2. The balcony door is chipped and pieces are falling out. 3. The Espresso coffee maker was lying unconnected and we had to figure the connection ourselves. 4. The Living room Venetian blind was not locking at the top and was left hanging downwards for over 3 days until I had to ask the receptionist to fix it (which he did in 5 mins). 5. The balcony was never cleaned and the chairs were left displaced always. 6. The buffet breakfast was the same every morning and while the restaurant service staff were eager to please, the same items daily, are a put off and can get quite boring. Freshly made items are not offered and one has to make do with items lying on the buffet since 0700h. Overall, this has been a miserable stay in Athens and it's sad, as we have stayed in Athens on two other occasions over the past 3 years, where we have loved the services and the guest handling skills at other hotels. I suspect the attitudes comes from the top... This is for the owner to figure it out. Our 20 mins conversation with the Ops Mgr gave us this impression, as she kept spouting "policies and instructions from the higher management" to us in defense of the staff negative behaviour.

Freshly made items are not offered and one has to make do with items lying on the buffet since 0700h. SERVICES: There is an overall attitude of saying "No" to most things one asks for. We felt this emanates from the top. Except for a couple of servers in the restaurant and housekeeping, we found the front desk team especially very negative.

The staff the location Everything was more then we expected Thank you for a great stay

Staff was very kind and thoughtful.

Excellent hôtel bien situé dans un quartier animé et pittoresque. Belle chambre avec terrasse et ce qui ne gâte rien avec vue sur l’Acropole. Personnel adorable. A recommander.

Personale molto cortese e attento. Hanno soddisfatto le nostre richieste

Very helpful staff

Friendly staff

Nice & clean

The room was very clean and good sized. The breakfast was so delicious. The staff was very kind and helpful. The hotel is located right in the downtown of Athens close to everything that you would want to see. The bed is very firm if you like that. We could see the acropolis from our very large balcony.

Yes the room was spotless. Shower leaked out a bit onto the bathroom floor but the bath mat and towels were changed every day. Softer toilet roll would be welcome.

Lovely hotel nicely situation with an amazing view!

taze ve konum çok iyi

We stayed here overnight to catch a plane back to the states. They were wonderful. The breakfast was great. The staff friendly and the room clean

Vriendelijk personeel.

Værelset var fint og rent, men billeder og tekst omkring terrasse/gårdhave er stærkt misvisende. Det svarer ikke til virkeligheden.

The hotel was very clean and modern. It was in a good location to access all the major tourist attractions. Staff at the hotel were very helpful and polite.

The room was very nice, and the balcony was wonderful. They both had an excellent view of the Parthenon. The staff was incredibly nice, and breakfasts were great. The hotel is difficult to find, and the area is a bit dodgy, but the hotel itself is great!
