Divani Palace Acropolis

Divani Palace Acropolis

8/10 Good
"the location is perfect if your goal is to be close to acropolis and the tourist sights but not entirely in the madness. 10min walk up the hill and you’re in the mix. staff and overall hotel experience was really good. the restaurant / bar upstairs in the evening has an incredible view to the acropolis and is definitely worth a visit for a drink. couple notes while we’re here: pool gets very little direct sun and isn’t heated (it’s cold) so don’t expect a vibey euro pool experience. the bathroom in our room was really small and quite dated. shower in small bath etc, not so comfortable for anyone 6ft or over. small issues but worth noting if deliberating between Divani and others."

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Athens is during January, February, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower. For those looking to explore the city's remarkable landmarks, rich history, and vibrant culture, a stay of at least 3 to 4 days is recommended. This timeframe allows visitors to enjoy budget-friendly attractions such as museums, historical sites, monuments, and charming cafés, as well as partake in art, theatre, dining, and sightseeing tours that offer great value for money. With the right timing, prices may drop even further, making it an excellent opportunity for travellers on a budget.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals to Athens, visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com to keep informed about flash sales and exclusive last-minute promotions, helping you seize potential savings. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, so you're more likely to see when prices drop or rooms become available. This way, you can make the most of your last-minute getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate due to factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your dates could help you save on your stay in an Athens hotel. For those seeking unique accommodations, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and sometimes present better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average.
