I stayed at this hotel from August 24 to August 25. While the property is beautiful, the location is exceptional and, in my opinion, one of its greatest strengths. The hotel was clean, well maintained, and the staff were courteous and professional.Unfortunately, my stay was overshadowed by a serious concern. Upon returning home and unpacking, I discovered that several personal belongings were missing, including recently purchased clothing and other items that had been left outside of my luggage. Based on the circumstances, I believe these items may have been taken during housekeeping service.While I otherwise enjoyed my stay, this incident was extremely disappointing and has significantly affected my overall impression of the hotel. I hope management will take this matter seriously and investigate it appropriately.

Hotel location and service were great, but the experience was overshadowed by a serious issue. After returning from Athens, I discovered that the person who cleaned my room had taken clothing I wore the night before. The only items missing were the ones I left outside my luggage — everything inside was secured. It’s extremely disappointing that a hotel with such a strong rating has staff who cannot be trusted.

I highly recommend this hotel. My family and I went to Greece for 8 days starting in Athens. We stayed at the King George for two nights. The location was convenient, the service was excellent and the food was great too! The only downside was that I thought there was a pool. There isn’t one. It is a 15 minute walk to Old Town, a 20 minute walk to the Acropolis and a 15-20 minute walk to great restaurants. You can also have drinks on the 8th floor at the hotel bar next door, which has an amazing view. The Parliament building is a two-minute walk and we were able to see the changing of the guard — which was cool. Everyone from the folks the reception desk to the porters to the waitstaff and maids were attentive and responsive. The restaurant is Michelin rated. They made a small mistake by taking some shot glasses that were gifted to us — thinking it was the hotel’s and they made up for it in spades. Best service you’ll get.

Fantastic hotel, I am a Bonvoy platinum, received a complimentary upgrade to Acropolis view, amenity was a beautiful bottle of liqueur and cookies, breakfast was also provided. Staff were great, very friendly and accommodating. They provided a lovely amenity for my kid on arrival. The lobby bar is quite nice, with an excellent cocktail program. Breakfast wasn’t over the top like some properties but nonetheless it was fresh with local delicacies and an al a carte menu. The views from the 7th floor restaurant were great. Late checkout was accommodated. Fantastic location in a safe neighbourhood, lots of great shopping and restaurants within walking distance. The hotel and room were very clean, noise was not an issue as the windows were thick wound proof glass.
