Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Athenaeum Intercontinental offers spacious and modern rooms, some providing extraordinary views of the illuminated Acropolis, especially from higher floors and the Club Lounge. Guests often appreciate the convenient access to the city via the Syggrou-Fix Metro station, though some find the location a bit outside the main shopping area, making car transport more suitable. The generous breakfast buffet, featuring a variety of options including freshly made omelets, is a highlight for many, and you can enjoy tasty meals at the onsite restaurants.

spacious room separate shower
The classic king room was quite spacious. It had a large desk area i used for my laptop. there was also a comfortable seating area near the window. It offered a nice spot to relax. the bathroom included both a tub and a separate shower. I found that very convenient. also, the blackout curtains worked effectively. They ensured a dark room for sleeping.
the gym's equipment looked slightly dated.
