    The location is excellent - major sites are walkable and it's very near Monistiraki metro so very easily accessible from the airport. It's on a busy road but still quiet. Overall it is perfect for a sight-seeing trip for a couple of days which is what we wanted.

    Exceptionally comfortable bed, particularly good bathroom and central heating, television, and a writing table in the room. Free parking behind the hotel provided. The location was great and amazing and the staff members were understanding. Nearby North Star Bowl - great place to chill out.

    The staff amazing! La gente del hotel son maravillosos! Very nice people and the rooms are decent sized. Everything worked good. Location is great because it was right by the monastariki square where there was live music and a lot of restaurants!

    The beds not so comfy but that didn't bother me. We were told by taxis the area was not so safe, but we didnt see anything and nothing happened.

    amazing view
    unbeatable location
    helpful staff
    flooding shower
    poor drainage

    I returned for another stay and loved how much better my experience was. The location is unbeatable-just a 5-minute walk from monastiraki. The rooftop view of the acropolis is amazing and adds a special touch to the stay.

    the shower flooded every time i used it.

    Hotel Cecil was a little Oasis in some hot days in Athens. It was so close to everything that we could retreat after a morning of sight seeing, then shower up and walk into the cooler late afternoon and beautiful evening. The staff was extremely helpful with lost luggage that didn't make it to Athens with us, and in making recommendations for dinner. I loved the very clean room and cool, crisp sheets.

    We liked very much the staff. They were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very nice, especially the triple..

    The bathroom in the dabble was very very small. The worst part was the breakfast - very poor and not esthetically served

    central location
    fragile sockets

    The kids especially appreciated the friendly staff.

    In my kids' opinion, the sockets need fixing.
