No title - expert review This is one of the nicest hotels in Plaka, with comfortable and simple, yet well-appointed rooms, ample storage space, and an excellent location on an attractive street close to area museums. Rooms from the fifth floor up have a view of the Acropolis-which you can also enjoy from the rooftop garden ... fodors.com
No title - expert review The Electra, just a few blocks southwest of Syntagma Square on a relatively quiet side street, is the most modern and stylish Plaka hotel. The rooms on the fifth, sixth, and seventh floors are smaller than those on lower floors, but a top-floor room is where you want to be, both for the terrific vie... frommers.com

Luxury in Plaka - user review After reading criticisms of some whiny crybabies, I was hesitant to book Electra Palace. I highly recommend it to anyone. Hotel is immaculately clean. Best quality wood & marble throughout. Elevators fit 5 people. The lobby is gigantic palatial, has many nice areas to lounge in. As is common in Euro... expedia.com
Acropolis view is a joke - user review ATTENTION, unless you can get a room on at least 5th floor, the Acropolis view is just a JOKE!!! Yes, there's a view (of a small corner of Acropolis) if you stay lower than 5th floor. The balcony is very small too for lower floors, barely sits two people. Very close to Plaka (3 minutes walk), though... expedia.com
Fantastic view - user review Great hotel. Stayed five nights starting on April 7th 2007. Only complaint is altho the out door tempertures were cool, the room was hot and the only way to cool down was to open the balcony doors. And the road noise was extremly loud. We were on the front side of the hotel. Make sure your room is o... expedia.com
Made Athens Trip Worth It - user review Hotel in in wonderful location in Plaka. The staff was truly amazing here at this hotel and tried to accomodate everything we needed. The reception staff KINDLY upgraded our room to a higher floor so that we could have a view of the Acroplis. We also had an amazing massage at the spa before our busi... expedia.com
Not A Five Star Hotel - user review I stayed for eight nights and over New Year's Eve. My hotel room was the smallest I have encountered anywhere and the bathroom was a bad joke so tiny, it was difficult to turn around. The hotel was so hot, I had to sleep with all windows open and it was still too warm, plus I was entertained by the ... expedia.com

good location but 5 stars? - user review In November, I stayed at the Electra Palace while on business because I wanted to be in the Plaka over the weekend, which were free days for me.
