Frommer's Review

This small hotel in a handsomely restored 150-year-old villa retains many of its original classical architectural details. It offers a central location -- just off Kidathineon in the heart of the Plaka, a 5-minute walk from Syntagma Square -- and the charm of being on a quiet pedestrian side street. Room nos. 401 and 402 have good views and can be requested (but not guaranteed) when making a reservation. The newer wing, only 60 years old, isn't architecturally special; each unit's spartan bathroom is across the hall.

If the Acropolis House is full, try Adonis Hotel, on the same street at 3 Kodrou (tel. 210/324-9737); it's architecturally undistinguished, but it does have an appealing location and a rooftop garden cafe with a view of the Acropolis. A few steps away, Kouros Hotel, 11 Kodrou (tel. 210/322-7431), is very basic and can be noisy.

Facilities:
Washing machine (small fee; free after 4-day stay); book swap

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
