Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel Athens

A fantastic resort, both for couples on a romantic getaway and for family vacations. The pools are large and spacious, and the number of sunbeds along the coast is so ample that you can relax in a different spot every day - always with a stunning view and service. The kids' club exceeded our expectations, with 6 staff members taking care of the children and the schedule of activities filled from morning until closing time. The restaurants on the premises provided such quality food that there was no need to leave the place! We highly recommend it.

A mixed feeling

Upon check in we were kindly escorted to our room by lovely lady called Maria. To our surprise at around 20:00 pm the sofa bed and housekeeping was still inside working. The room is modern but not for 2 adults and a child as the sofa bed is so uncomfortable our son could not sleep on it. During all stay we would stay worst thing was always the housekeeping, towels with orange stains on them - brought as new ones, overall cleaning at a level of motel. When met with Gabrielle hsk supervisor things changed and he tried himself to fix all in the room and make sure the room will be done by FS standards of cleaning. Gabrielle unfortunately cant be present and do the job of a regular housekeeping as most likely the common sense or a proper training prior to getting hired is lacking. Thank you Gabrielle for your kindness and trying to solve the issues. Breakfast area is nice with good service and nice food options. Best restaurant in hotel is Beef Bar as a standard almost as good as the one in Monaco. Taverna is also cute but the italian restaurant is not italian at all - most likely american/greek version of naming it italian but not using italian cooking standards. Pizza margherita without mozzarella di buffala but rather with yellow mixture us type of dominos cheese. Service is great on the other hand as well as drinks options. When ordered pancakes from IRD they came raw on the inside… the mixture ready to use for them as a fast food place is very lowering the image of food quality. Overall this resort has a great potential, also nice position but it needs an urgent makeover and better hsk employees too.

Outstanding with minor reservations.

The cleanliness and service were outstanding. There are deductions for breakfast, especially for the service. Empty plates, cups, etc. piled up on the tables, and taking orders only happened after several reminders.
