Fodor's Expert Review St. George Lycabettus

Kleomenous 2, Athens, Attica, 10675, Greece

At the foothills of Lycabettus Hill, this elegant hotel is considered one of the most elegant in central Athens. Although in recent years it made several renovations it's still more 4 stars than 5, but nonetheless offers all the modern comforts that today's most demanding travelers may desire. Its peaceful location offers a lovely sense of respite from the hustle and bustle of the center and is idyllically close both to Lycabettus hill for a great walk or jog and Kolonaki's best boutiques and cafés.

PROS

  • astounding Acropolis and city views from some rooms
  • scenic rooftop restaurant and swimming pool
  • right above Dexameni Square, ideal for coffee and meze

CONS

  • a 15-minute walk from Kolonaki Square and taxi ride from most sites
  • service could be friendlier and more efficient
  • Wi-Fi in rooms available for a charge
