Electra Palace Hotel
Named after a character from Ancient Greek theatre and literature, the Electra Palace has an excellent Old Town location, just a few minutes' walk from the Parthenon, the Acropolis, as well as restaurants, shops, cafés, museums and theatres.
The Blue Line Metro station Syntagma is nearby, from which it is just two stations stops to Athens' main gay scene in Gazi. The same line runs to the airport.
Guest rooms at the Electra Palace feature classic décor and furnishings, and many have a balcony with stunning views of the Acropolis.
The hotel has an indoor heated swimming pool, sauna, steam bath, spa, fully-equipped gym, rooftop garden, urban restaurant and English-style bar.
