「Fantastic centrally-located hotel in Athens」
+My husband and I stayed at the Periscope Hotel in Athens, Greece to celebrate our 40th anniversary and what a delight it was! Everyone from front desk to housekeeping to managment was extraordinarily wonderful - friendly, helpful, anxious to tell us about the city, make recommendations, reservations, or lend us a tablet to solve our cell phone problem the minute we checked in. Over the course of our stay in Greece, we stayed in 3 rooms and each was perfect. Of course, the penthouse with it's private rooftop hot tub was the most perfect! We had booked a standard room using Marriott Bonvoy points and were immediately upgraded to a superior room. The room is sleek and modern, comfortable bed,and is cleaned daily. The penthouse was a real treat! Huge room with a sitting area, great view, the works. The location is very convient with loads of shops and restaurants, the National Botanical Garden, the Plaka, and more just minutes away. It is a very walkable area. There is snack food, coffee and other drinks available in the lobby all the time. We loved the Periscope and their staff so much that we will definely be returning on our next trip to Athens! Give it a try; you won't be sorry!
「Complain」
+I am currently staying at this hotel and unfortunately had a disappointing experience with the front desk. This morning I politely asked if I could check out a bit later and even offered to pay for it. The receptionist immediately said the hotel was “fully booked” and refused without making any effort to check. She said this with a smile, but it felt insincere and dismissive rather than helpful. After the call, I checked the hotel’s own website and saw that several rooms were still available - including a Junior Suite. I then checked Booking.com and found the same rooms available there as well, even at a cheaper rate. This makes me feel that I was not told the truth, which is unacceptable and unprofessional for a 4-star hotel. The hotel is clean, but other than that, there is nothing special about it, and the lack of honesty at reception is a serious concern. I value transparent customer service, and unfortunately, I cannot recommend this hotel based on my experience.

「Perfect Athens !!」
+The staff was exceptional !! It made our time in Athens a joy !! If you are a 1st timer in Athens or an experienced visitor- I highly recommend the Periscope hotel. Remember it is a boutique hotel- so the location is perfect- the hotel has a limited number of rooms and the staff are truly welcoming and knowledgeable. The staff made this an outstanding experience.

The rooms were spotless, beautifully maintained, and very comfortable. I also loved the location - it was convenient, quiet, and close to everything I needed. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here again!

「Terrible hotel in good location. Be careful when booking」
+Don’t book if you value daylight. Standard rooms have a view into the void which feels like the backyard of a prison. Also that Rooftop spa is deliberately misleading - it’s only in the roof top suite and not accessible to guests. Wellness does not exist. It’s ‘outsourced’ to another hotel. Most frustrating is that the hotel description is deliberately misleading.
+Great hotel close to the core of Athens in a good neighborhood. Staff was great! They arranged pickup for us at the cruise port and transport to the airport when we left. As well they booked tours for us with a great tour company. Always there to help and with a greeting every time we entered or existed. A special bonus is that they put out all day snacks and drinks at no charge! This was a nice treat after a long day of checking out Athens or a coffee, tea and snack in the evening. Only thing to be aware of is a lack of multiple outlets/ports for charging all of our multiple technology devices. Bring an adapter that can handle a few devices at a time. Room came with slippers, robes, hair dryer, safe and lots of closet space and drawers for the longer stays. Easy walk to great restaurants, transit, hop on, hop off buses and attractions. Great place if you are traveling to this amazing city.
+Great hotel
「Up Periscope in a sea of Athens hotels.」
+A truly lovely find in Athens’ elegant Kolonaki neighborhood; close to everything, sleek boutique hotel with very comfortable and well-appointed rooms and an absolutely wonderful staff, this is a great pied-a-terre far from the mega or touristy hotels. With very few rooms, the vibe is hip, chic and understated. The staff clearly loves their city and are happy to offer recommendations for restaurants that were spot-on in terms of delicious and great people-watching. In a busy, noisy city like Athens, it’s wonderful to stay in a quiet, comfortable and welcoming hotel.
「Sub standard, poor sleep quality, loud」
+Sub-standard “standard” room. Have stayed at this hotel in the past due to its location in Kolonaki but everything has gone downhill since. Upon arrival zero recognition for AMEX platinum status or Marriot Bonvoy gold and an inhospitable welcome. The hotel is comprised of 5 rooms per floor, 4 of which face the street and have large windows. These are called premium rooms. There is 1 standard room per floor which ends in -05 and it is ersatz to the rest. It’s in a back corner of the building that has no direct light. It’s in a very narrow light well staring directly into other buildings walls, pipes, and mechanical systems. The bed faces the door and the hallway and a crawl space accessed via a ventilation panel into the common corridor. The entire room was always dark at any time of day. There were black out shades but not any in the bathroom so the small crevasse of light that came through the bathroom also came into the room since the bathroom didn’t have black out. There was a lot of light seepage from the hallway and air vent above the door into the room as bright as the downlight in the hallway. The sound in the hotel is loud and constant. Not from the street, but from other g
