InterContinental Athens

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked cheapest advance rate and was upgraded to an Executive suite.

How are the rooms?
Around 80 sqm
Elegant classic contemporary design
Large living room with dining table, sofa
Room with comfortable bed
Very efficient air conditionning
Bathroom with bathtub
Additional separate toilets
View over Acropolis
Pretty old television sets. Unfortunately not possible to connect the television sets with iPhone
Large dressing room
Kettle but no Nespresso coffee machine

How is the exec. lounge?
I love club lounge in Athens for food selection, view and great staff.
It was unfortunately closed.
Breakfast is served at Café Zoé. No other compensation.

What was good and what was bad?
-Good
Excellent gastronomic restaurant Première

-Bad
Pool with low number of deck chairs and upper deck of the pool closed.
No club lounge, non operating minibar (but daily USD 50 discount can be used at pool or café), no shuttle, no spa.
Non central location.

Value for $ or IHG Rewards Points? Would you return?
Yes, even if price has not been reduced despite lounge and other services non operating.
Athens needs a Kimpton hotel, with more central location!
