This hotel makes a big deal about its 5-star status but the only thing really five-star about this place is the price. Our ("standard") room was microscopic: we had to rearrange the furniture to put 2 carry-on suitcases down. There wasn't really a desk but rather some sort of mini-alcove with a type of footrest serving as a stool/chair. I... more

I stayed with my husband at the Royal Olympic last March in an Athenian Panorama room. We were positively impressed from the moment we walked in, the lobby is really beautiful and the reception staff were friendly and helpful. We loved the room, it was extremely clean, elegant and the views were even better than expected. I would for sure... more

I verify all of my hotels on Trip Advisor prior to making reservations. All of the reviews on the Royal Olympic were accurate. A friend and I stayed at the Royal Olympic hotel during Easter weekend March 2008. First, the location is absolutely perfect! Two minute walk to the metro station, right across the street from the Temple of Zeus,... more

Just came back from a six days stay in the Royal Olympic - have to say, with very mixed feelings. The location is excellent, walking distance to the Acropolis, Plaka, Syntagma square. Staff reasonably helpful - especially the staff at breakfast. They couldn't provide with any tourist information, though - all they could give us was the flyer of a... more

This was by far the worst 5-star hotel I have ever stayed. I must note that I have stayed in one of the regular rooms, no view, lower price. Yet there was none of the 5-star amenities available. No minibar in the room as a starter. The shower cabin was so weird, once you get a shower, the bathroom was... more

I just returned from a pleasant stay at the Royal Olympic in Athens. I chose this hotel based on its affordable price and 5 star rating. The hotel did not offer a shuttle from the airport so I relied on public transportation in a strange city to take me there. Luckily, I researched the route before hand. Upon exiting the... more

We have stayed in Double room with panoramic view for two nights. It is breathtaking panoramic view of the Temple of Zeus(see photos)! More similar to a picture, than on a reality. A room big and comfortable with plaids of Christian Dior. The big and convenient bathroom. The hotel lobby and all public areas is magnificent. We had dinner at... more

That was something! I was told the Royal Olympic had the views but in the evening I though I could touch the Temple of Zeus! The public areas were also offering a feeling of luxury! The Athenian room I had was like a small suite... However there are some projects still going on and the gym was being "refreshed" Next... more

This was exactly what I needed for my stay in Athens. Metro 5 steps away. The Hotel was impressive.Bar area, well decorated but dark. Nice pool and perfect view especially in the evening. I would recommend this Hotel. more
