Fodor's Expert Review Philippos Hotel

Mitseon 3, Athens, Attica, 11742, Greece

Just around the corner from its sister hotel, the Herodion, the Philippos shares its sister property's best qualities, namely a quiet location convenient to the Acropolis and friendly, efficient service. Although the Philippos has no rooftop restaurant with Acropolis views, lunch and dinner are served at the Herodion, 40 meters away. Modular dark-veneer beds (in smallish rooms) with beige covers are offset by pale green carpets and draperies. You can sip a coffee in the light-filled atrium with comfortable couches and patio tables. Some rooms (mainly on the top floors) even have an Acropolis view. American buffet breakfast is included in the price.

  • clean rooms
