“We had the most amazing stay at the Dolli at the Acropolis! It was one of the loveliest hotels we’ve ever visited. The service was exceptional and the staff went out of their way to make you feel welcome and to anticipate your every need. From the moment you checked in, you were welcomed by the friendly staff with champagne and pastries. The room was lovely and stocked with wine and little desserts. The restaurant was fabulous for both breakfast and dinner, and the view of the Acropolis was unparalleled. We’ve traveled the world, and this is definitely one of our favorite hotels!”

“Not enough nice things to say about this hotel. It's style/taste of design exceeds all expectations. The rooms are new and include every amenity you could ask for. If you want to be wow'd just visit the pool and restaurant on the top floor that has a front row view of the Acropolis. The only thing that exceeds all of this is the staff. From the moment you walk in, you're the most important person. Their attitudes are the warmest and friendliest. For example, on our tour of the hotel, we mentioned we had a 4:30a wake up call to make an early flight and without hesitation the hotel manager mentioned he would have breakfast to-go boxes prepared for us and coffees. Honestly, I was sort of speechless at that level of hospitality (Thank you @Anderes - rock star!). It's a very special place. Highly recommend. Well done to the team!”

“Small boutique hotel with limited rooms so don’t expect an upgrade if you book through Amex. While the staff is lovely and rooftop breakfast nicely done, the Acropolis view room is nowhere near worth the price. The room is very, very small and the view, while indeed has the acropolis in it, leaves a lot to be desired (including lots of a/c’s and a camera outside looking right into your room). They must use a very wide angle lens in the hotel photos. Good location and very generous with sweets (if you like that type of thing). The value for the rooms, however, is quite poor.”

“We had such an incredible experience at Le Bar Secret 🩵 Everything was so luxurious and beautifully designed, making the whole evening feel really special. Christina was absolutely amazing — so friendly, accommodating, and wonderful to talk to. She made us feel so welcome and even took beautiful photos of us with the stunning interior. Thank you so much, Christina, for making our experience so memorable! We will definitely be back!”

“The best hotel experience hands down, it is a more luxury hotel but was worth it. We celebrated our honeymoon here and they had the cutest honeymoon accommodations- cake and champagne. The customer service is top notch, we thoroughly enjoyed it all. I think only downfall is if your room is on the first floor facing the courtyard the rooms that have access to it can see through the windows if you don’t have the curtains closed. It was very quiet though, so it didn’t bother us much just something to keep in mind. Everything was very nice, beautiful decor and amenities. Our favorite part was breakfast and bar time views with the acropolis. The ambiance was so romantic we would love to come back and highly recommend.”
