Polis Grand Hotel

I do not believe this property reflects a 4 star hotel by definition. Let's start with location...It is located in a not so atheistically pleasing part of Athens so be careful walking around the neighborhood. The rooms are too small and very outdated. I stayed at this place for a total of 5 nights on 3 separate occasions because of a group tour. First 2 nights the room was as small with a window that opened to an alley which was on the 6th floor. The AC barely worked. The second time I was given a better yet still standard room on the 5th floor. This included a sofa but the bathroom had zero ventilation. Main window faced an alley but at least the AC worked. 3rd time I was on the 1st floor, room was tiny again and the AC was broken completely. In addition they advertise a GYM but the one and only weight machine has a sign in it that reads "Out of Order". The treadmill is old, the bike is older and the 4 kettle balls are all that's available. The absolute BEST thing going is the Rooftop Restaurant/Bar and Staff. Food is Great and the Staff is great as well. The Bar and drinks are fantastic and the Bartender is amazing with the crafting of cocktails. The view of the Acropolis is fair. Hotel is a 3 star as far as accommodations.

We stayed at this hotel twice. The first time our room was very small with two beds together instead of one big bed. The second room was much bigger with one bed, but no balcony like the first one had. The rooftop bar has a decent view of the Acropolis, but it's nothing like the pictures online.
