The evaluation concerns only the Premiere restaurant located in the hotel.
Visit the last days of dine athens with a prefixed menu at 60 euros / person. Previous visit was 4 years ago in a (then) unforgettable and excellent 5 star experience. This time, both the level of service and taste varied on the level of "very good", always judging very strictly as a top restaurant, trying to (unsuccessfully) get its first Michelin star. Some dishes stand out, some not so. I distinguished myself perfectly for the dish with ravioli mushrooms and crayfish in banana marsh. The hanging tender is deliciously weak, while the dessert just good. The 2 glasses of Skoura Estate wine that accompanied the menu at the '' bottom shelf of capacity '', probably not so suitable to support a high standard menu. The service can be improved in details, the previous time reminded Swiss clock accuracy and English lord's courtesy. We paid an Alpha Bank card and we also received a 10% discount. Overall a very nice experience with a magnificent view and a relaxing environment that hardly anyone will say no.

Overall great experience. Excellent customer service.

We were here on our honeymoon. We were offered an upgrade for about 80 euro. The upgrade includes a better room with Acropolis view and access to the club where there is open bar 5pm to 8pm, breakfast is included, among a few other things. Originally we were told dinner buffet was included but the restaurant told us that was not the case. When we mentioned this to the front desk, they promptly removed the upgrade charge.

The room was clean and had all the amenities. The pressure and temperature of the shower was excellent. We were also given champagne for our honeymoon.

During midnight we were woken up by some loud guests who were smoking in the adjoining room. The security officer promptly responded to our concern and changed our room to non-smoking. We really appreciated his willingness to help resolve the situation. If you do not smoke, confirm before check-in. The hotel is working on making all rooms non-smoking in the future. Hotel also has option for late check out.

Acropolis is about 25 mins walk away. The hotel offers a shuttle that drops you off near Acropolis. Lots of restaurants and dessert shops near Acropolis. If you walk back to hotel make sure to walk on the side of where the hotel is. You cannot cross the Main Street near the hotel.

Satisfied with the facilities and location, but dissatisfied with basic security such as security. A backpack bag was stolen four weeks ago while waiting for a taxi in the hotel lobby. I checked the hotel's security camera, but I couldn't get my bag back after theft was confirmed. The security check process is also slow to respond ... I don't want to use it next time.

It's all spectacular. The cleanliness, the comfort, the spaciousness of space. Very nice rooms. Luxurious bb without being presumptuous. The only less attractive point is the surrounding public space being run down, run down and dirty, like several areas in Athens, unfortunately. However the neighborhoods of Plaka and Monasteriki are a quaint charm and typical and traditional foods. It is worth visiting these neighborhoods and shopping for souvenirs there, at quite attractive prices.

I have stayed for five days taking part in a congress. The hotel offers nice rooms for meetings in different sizes. For this price-level, catering and quality of the food in general was disappointing. Often you find missing details you don't expect in a hotel like this. For example: during lunch they offer dessert in a glas, but the spoons they place next to it aree too big to fit in the glas. Etc.
Sourrounding of the hotel is not very nice, rather poor and not very pretty.

Super hotel! Big rooms, clean bathrooms, very good food. An international touch of the food and dessert. Super big rooms for conferences. Good location, very close to Acropolis and Syntagma square.

The hotel and Service was quite good. Except the surrounding and the WiFi. The WiFi was very Bad during the conference and in the rooms. IT is quite near to the Akropolis but the Arena directly around the hotel is in a Not good condition. The meals where ery good.

A little difficult to access if you come from the city center
Prohibitively expensive minibar prices
Breakfast ok but not exceptional (cheap cold cuts, "fake" bacon)
Very good bedding
Spacious rooms with possible views of the Parthenon
Nice view of the bar from the 10th floor

A place with a high level of aesthetics and great luxury. A cultured environment that calls for and corresponding behavior. Polite personnel. As many times as I went there was a pianist who played discreetly. In my opinion it is ideal for business meetings and "calm" conversations with friends and acquaintances.

Great stay at the InterContinental. The hotel has a spacious lobby and the room we stayed in was also very spacious and well kept. We used the hotel's free shuttle service which goes to and leaves from Syntagma Square. This allows for easy access to the main attractions in Athens even though the hotel is located outside of the main area. Would definitely stay here again.
