“Elia Ermou's location on a central shopping street puts you in the heart of Athens, steps from the Plaka and Acropolis. The rooftop dining area, with its Acropolis view, really elevates the experience beyond the typical city hotel. I think this blend of prime location and exceptional dining makes it a standout for visitors wanting both convenience and a touch of luxury.”

nice touch daily calls

the breakfast had many options and the view was super nice. the room was super clean and i received new towels every day. the reception called daily to ask if everything was satisfactory. i thought that was a nice touch.

the in-room sound insulation isn't perfect, so street noise was sometimes noticeable.
