Diakofto Train Monument

This was a lovely place to stay.The staff were warm and welcoming, and very helpful.The rooms are small but well equipped. The property has a lovely pool and is located very close and within walking distance to the shops and restaurants in Glyfada. I highly recommend the Sea View hotel and would definitely stay there again.

Il personale era molto accogliente e gentile! La camera pulitissima e ben attrezzata.Abbiamo mangiato anche alla greca al bistro della struttura e tutto era buonissimo.

We booked here as we were only in Athens for 3 nights and felt that that this would be a good standard, convenient and had a pool. It ticked all of those boxes. Immaculately clean, very polite staff, newly renovated & large, well appointed room. Be aware that because it’s an Intercontinental, food & drink charges are VERY expensive. My daughter ordered a chocolate milkshake by the pool- she was brought two scoops of chocolate icecream in a small glass instead- delicious, but not worth 16euros! The first night we were tired so ate in the lounge- 70 euro for a mediocre chicken burger and Greek salad with 4 small pieces of feta. Worst of all was the rooftop bar- amazing views but a non alcoholic ‘cocktail’- in reality ginger ale with a splash of rum flavour was 17Euro and most of the the glass was taken up by a gigantic column of ice. A glass of wine was perfectly reasonable at 9 Euro, but be aware. The pool is fantastic but you have to get there early or you won’t get a sun lounger. I personally like to get up and swim early but for some reason this pool doesn’t open until 10am, and closes at 8pm so if you wanted to use it before a day of sightseeing or tours, or before a business meeting, forget it. I don’t understand why it can’t open earlier. CafeZoe is a nice breakfast room. Hot drinks were slow to come, if at all, but the breakfast buffet was fantastic. Location is good a short walk to Syngrou Fix Metro but you take your life in your hands crossing the road!!
