The staff was extremely helpful, and the restaurant was excellent. The room was very good, but the shower floor was very slippery, so slippery that we had to put towels on the floor to prevent a fall.

Fantastic location, side street but around the corner from restaurants, coffee shops, close to metro. Staff was incredibly welcoming and arranged all things we requested - even ahead of arrival. The room had everything we needed, and was comfortable. I would absolutely stay here again.

We loved our stay as it was within walking distance to most sights. We had a room on 6th floor with a veranda which was perfect for a drink before bed. Breakfast first class. Bed very comfortable, bathroom and shower first class with beautiful Greek toiletries. I actually went across the road to the local pharmacy and bought some to take home. Good air con which was def appreciated. Would recommend.

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!

Great hotel with a loud night club next door.

The hotel itself is amazing. Comfortable room. Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. The only disadvantage was the next door club with loud music almost each night. If a club music beat is your white noise, you'll be alright. Otherwise you have a problem.
