My stay at New Hotel in Athens was enjoyable overall, primarily due to the incredibly friendly staff and the hotel's central location, which made exploring easy. The rooftop views of the Acropolis were amazing, and I appreciated the free entry to the Acropolis Museum that the hotel provided. However, I found the room size a bit cramped and the dining options at the hotel to be overpriced. 🏛️🌟
