The Stanley

Staff were fantastic - welcoming, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fantastic and because we could eat it on the rooftop restaurant the panorama was beautiful. Rooftop bar and pool area were exceptional! Easy access from the hotel onto the metro (with the station entrance just around the corner from the hotel).

We stayed at The Stanley for 5 nights in Feb 2024 and our overall impression was great. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the room was spacious and comfortable. As some of the reviews have mentioned, the proximity to the metro entrance is a definite plus. The breakfast buffet was sumptuous, as was the quality of the food at the restaurant. We didn't use the pool as it was quite cold when we went, but it was certainly very welcoming. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, and thought it offered good value for money too. The ACroplois view from the rooftop restaurant was pretty cool too.

The staff were very helpful, friendly, well trained, and with an excellent level of professionalism. There was an incident with a fire alarm in the afternoon (which, at the end, was a false alarm). The fire announcement was loud and clear through speakers and clearly could be heard inside the room. On each floor, there were 1-2 members of the staff guiding and helping people to get outside the premises through stairs and fire escape safely. Each member of the staff were in their positions helping out, this shows an excellent level of professionalism. The room was clean. Every day, the bath towels were folded piled neatly, and generally, the bathroom/shower area was spotless. Kudos to the housekeeping team. Breakfast was good with a variety of options. The restaurant/bar on the 9th floor had a nice atmosphere with a nice view of the area. It was a great option for a drink or lunch after a long day. Right outside at the corner of the hotel, next to the metro station entrance, there is a small café where you could get a coffee or juice "for the road" with a variety of sandwiches, wraps, pastries, etc.

First of all..they provided 2 hours early check-in for one of our rooms...gave a good comfort. Everything around the reception desk were fast, accurate, effectiv...thanks for the front staff, esp. to Ms. Vicky ...Garage service is fine, for just 12/day. Breakfast -althought pretty repetative- is excellent, variety is wide enough, good quality things are served ...for 5 days you can select 5 diets. The bathroom isnt' big, equipped however, overhead shower, gels, soaps , etc, and good towels are there. The bed is big, maybe queen-size, 1st class matrace, and white bedclothes ...immaculate. Small but well equipped ( Technogym) gym, 5PAX finnish sauna are on the 4th floor!!! And , the cream on the top....on the top floor, there is an open-air roop terrace, with bar, restaurant, and a swimming pool with 22C water, and panorama of course. ( OK , I found cheaper bars here and there....but not on the top of good hotel in Athen) On one day one of our company had her birthday....I asked recepcionist Ms.Vicky, where could I get a little cake and flowers , as a surprize present for her. Instead, the house produced a fine chocolate cake - free, on the house - and served on a way I asked to.....and above all, this was the most fine , tasty cake we ( at least ..I) had in this year....

The roof top area was beautiful and the view to the acropolis was amazing. The renovated rooms were really nice. The hotel location is great as the metro station is directly below. The buffet breakfast had every option. The hotel staff were friendly and accommodating.
