Radisson Blu Park Hotel Athens

"We had to move out of our first hotel in Athens due to the horrendous traffic noise so requested a quiet room here. Check in was smooth and efficient. We had a suite with a 'porthole' window where we could see the Parthenon. I guess, as with all things, it depends where you stay in the hotel as we were fortunate the suite had a lounge and television area, then sliding double doors to the bedroom and then further sliding double doors to the bathroom are (with separate doors to shower and toilet). We heard nothing. It was bliss! We paid half the price for that quiet suite than we did our first hotel so it was good value. Breakfast is great. Lots of buffet items. Usual hot buffet and then fruit, yoghurt, continental buffet, honeycomb (lovely), all sorts of bread, nuts and seeds etc. Amazing (and I mean amazing) coffee machine. Staff were very cheerful, polite and so efficient at clearing and cleaning down. We didn't find it a massive issue to have to walk to get to things. The tour buses are just a 10 minute walk away. Also there are some really lovely local restaurants within easy walkable reach of this hotel - not many tourists in them either so a lovely Greek family atmosphere. The road outside is going to be noisy if you stay at the front of the hotel. Ask for a room at the back. I see there is a car park in a side ride to the hotel. Athens is a beautiful City, and the roof top bar of this hotel gives you some truly magnificent views. The restaurant does wonderful food. Cocktails are made very well and generous quantities of alcohol!"

"Never a five star hotel. Reception area was tired and in need of a good clean. Lift wasn’t working and hotel had a funny smell. In the bedroom the fumes from the extremely busy road would be there from 7am - despite no window being open. Location it’s far from main places and a good half hour walk to get into main part. Defo would not recommend"

"We stayed at the Radisson Blu Park Hotel last week. Everyone there made our stay memorable. But mention has to be made of the breakfast staff and an excellent breakfast with lots of choices. The rooftop restaurant staff were again wonderful, nothing was ever too much trouble. However, it is only fair to commend the housekeeping staff and particularly the lady who serviced our room who kept it pristine and made it ready for us no matter what time we returned. Thankyou. Finally, we would like to thank Vanel on reception. The whole team including George were great but Vanel went over and above to make our stay the great success it was, from recommending local Greek restaurants, to tips about getting around Athens and transport hubs and stops as well as an acropolis photo opportunity from the hotel. What an ambassador for the hotel. Vanel you were so helpful thank you. This is a hotel that does everything one would expect and far far much more for its guests and we were so grateful. Thankyou!"
