The front desk staff were very helpful! Our room was nice but small. There was construction happening in the room above us which began before 9am so sleeping in wasn’t an option. This went on through the day until dinner. The pool had a great view of the acropolis although it was a small area with limited loungers. The number of people who “saved” these few loungers with their towels was annoying. We spent 3 hours by the pool one afternoon and the beds were still being unused while others had no where to sit. The breakfast buffet was amazing (a huge variety and very delicious) however I wish I could say the same for the service. For what is deemed a luxury hotel I felt I shouldn’t have had to track down someone to bring coffee to the table. We didn’t have one wait staff check on us or ask if we needed anything. We cleared our own plates. Overall it was a very average stay in a very expensive hotel.
