The hotel boasts a fantastic location, being just a short walk away from all the major tourist attractions and the shopping square. While we found the breakfast selection to be lacking and not up to par, we recommend considering dining options elsewhere for your morning meal. Aside from this, the hotel itself is truly excellent!

Liked: Staff & service
I would certainly not consider this a 4-star hotel as it could benefit from some updating and modernization. The hallway walls and carpeting appeared worn and I didn't like the lack of separation between the toilet/shower and the room. On a positive note, the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The hotel is also in a great location —just a short walk to the Acropolis with plenty of shopping and restaurants nearby.

Our stay at The Gem Society was fantastic. Concierge was very helpful in arranging our transportation needs for a large group traveling with a small child. They had a play pen for the baby inside one of the rooms ( we rented 5 rooms total). The standard rooms were larger than we had anticipated, the beds comfortable and the experience overall was fantastic. Great location, great restuarant suggestions by the hotel and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to be within walking distance to the Ancient Agora / Acropolis and good restaurants. 10/10, thank you!
