We loved our stay at Villa Athena. The staff were the consummate professionals - kind and gracious. We travelled with our young children and were welcomed warmly in all the spaces. We stayed in the Villa Athena suite with its huge terrace and stunning vista of the Concordia Temple. The gardens were beautiful and the boys loved picking the mandarins and eating them! It was truly luxurious. Many thanks.

A nice hotel with an amazing view of the temples. The service was excellent. We were in the presidential suite which was spacious, however the cleanliness could be improved, particularly the bathroom which had mouldy.

There is only one restaurant on the premises and while the service was good the food was average at best. They were able to modify a couple of the dishes to make them vegan.

A true 5 Star hotel. Service, food and rooms were excellent. The VIEWS and access to the Valley of the Temples are amazing. The restaurant and bar are staffed with exceptional people who looked after us and made us feel welcome. One of the nicest and most comfortable hotel experiences we have ever had. Stay here!

Not much I can add. This hotel's reputation speaks for itself. Gorgeous property, Top service, great restaurant. Rooms are awesome. Our room had french doors through which you enter the room from a small patio with umbrella and chairs. The view was directly to a Temple on a nearby bluff. Extremely comfortable facility. We ate at the hotel restaurant so we didn't have to go into town after a day of tours and travel.

Wonderful hotel with fantastic views of the temples. We were lucky enough to be upgraded to a deluxe room with a balcony that overlooked the gardens and temple. Breakfast was also delicious, and were the drinks. Highly recommended.
