- PARASKEVAS (10/5): -
- VASILIKI (9/5): - Πολύ καλή τοποθεσία
Ευγενικό και εξυπηρετικό προσωπικό Μοκέτα στα δωμάτια
- Panagiota (9/5): -
- Andreas (10/5): Had a fantastic time with the family! - The location is fantastic and the staff were very welcoming. The underground parking was extremely convenient and easy to access.
- James (10/5): -
- 45samerr (10/5): Great place - Great place. Staff are friendly and helpful. Clean and well maintained.
- VASILIKI (10/5): Εξαιρετική τοποθεσία - Το προσωπικό ήταν πολύ ευγενικό και εξυπηρετικό παρότι κάναμε check in αργά το βράδυ ζήτησα μια Nespresso machine και μου την έφεραν αμέσως
Πολύ καλή τοποθεσία σχεδόν στο κέντρο της Κηφισιάς Τα δωμάτια χρήζουν ανακαίνισης
- Alexandra (6/5): Great location - The staff was polite and attentive. The location is great. The design is a bit too colorful, the rooms do not have numbers but symbols, so the concept was not for me.
The rooms need a refresh (cracks, scratches in the bathroom, in the bedroom on nightstands, on the balcony windows...etc)
The food was not great - ordered a steak for dinner - was tender but more boiled than seared, the potatoes were low quality, precut, probably came frozen judging by the taste.
- Athanasia (10/5): - Βρίσκεται σε κεντρικό δρόμο και είχε λίγη φασαρία.
- wale (10/5): Unique hotel in a Cool calm upmarket location. - Quirky fine deco and very friendly staff.
Extremely clean and great location which is a personal taste. Not too touristy. Nothing.
- mireille (10/5): Havre de paix - Location
- saltacity (10/5): Very nice design hotel - Very nice hotel with excellent design features. Service is very friendly and good. Nice concept of not having room numbers but symbols per floor. I enjoyed staying here very much.
- Theofylaktos (6/5): -
- Antonio (7/5): - Colazione varia e di ottima qualità Il prezzo è apparso molto elevato

- Joëlle (10/5): Très agréable séjour pour la nouvelle année - Le personnel est très agréable, souriant, serviable, professionnel et aussi naturel. Le petit-déjeuner est copieux. Les chambres sont très propres. La localisation au centre de Kifissia est très agréable. Il y a un parking sous-terrain très pratique. Bref, nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour. Rien.
- Geert (8/5): Prijs kwaliteit oké - Personeel en douche Bar gesloten op maandag.
Persoonlijk ben ik niet voor zo een concept met al die kleuren
- Themos (10/5): - Τα παντα Μονο η μοκετα στα δωματια και η μικρη τηλεοραση
- yosef (7/5): - אמבטיה
- Cheri (10/5): -
- VASILEIOS (8/5): -
- Katy (8/5): - Unique hotel in great location
- Ehud (8/5): - Your agreement with the Taxi company is unacceptable. I took your service in the morning inside Kefisia, 5-7 min drive and he took 18 Euro from me. on the way back I took an Uber for 5.5 Euro, the same drive. I complained to the reception in front of the same receptionist that ordered the Taxi for me, and his answer was that these are the prices because it is "a good and reliable Taxi station you work with". this is very unfair, and you should worn your guests that the prices for your Taxi company are 3 times more expensive than other companies. For me it was a disappointment from your staff.

- Lousinta (9/5): - Εξαιρετική τοποθεσία και ήσυχο περιβάλλον.
Υπεροχα εστιατορια σε κοντινή απόσταση (με τα πόδια)
Πολύ καθαρά δωμάτια και εξαιρετικά ευγενικο προσωπικό.
Πολύ εξυπηρετικό προσωπικό ακομα και σε περιπτώσεις που υπήρχαν απεργίες ταξι ,πρόθυμοι να βοηθήσουν εγκαίρως Το δωματιο ήταν σε εξωτερικό χώρο κοντά στην πισίνα που αρχικά μου είπαν οτι μου έκαναν αναβάθμιση και το εκτιμω.
Αλλα είχε φασαρια στα κοντινά δωμάτια με τις πορτες(ανοιξε/κλεισε)
- Antoine (9/5): Séjour en famille - Originalité, endroit bercé par l’art contemporain Mauvais isolation phonique des fenêtres côté rue
- Theodore (6/5): -
- robindI3719RL (8/5): Last stop in Greece before heading home... - One night stay after one week Greek island cruise. Chose this location to be closer to the airport than in Athens near the cruise terminal. Odd appearance for this Marriott property with bright colors everywhere. The hotel itself fit our needs for the one night stay. It does appear somewhat "tired" with carpets and such well used...perhaps an update in the near future? Area around the hotel was quite nice located across from a large park. Several nice restaurants within walking distance. Area felt safe to us. Exactly what we were looking for.
- Kehagia (10/5): -
- Enrica (4/5): Personal muy amable pero un desastre de hotel - El personal muy amable Parecía estar en el exterior, ningún tipo de aislamiento del ruido. Mucho design (tampoco tan bonito…. Ya old fashion) pero muy poco funcional. El ruido en la habitación de los coches completamente inaceptable. Descontenta.
- Ioannis (8/5): -
- Thanos (9/5): -
- Silia J (10/5): - The staff is top notch, and they are CLEARLY supported by management to put the customer first. Beautiful hotel, incredible design and the BEST location in Athens’ gorgeous suburb of Kifissia. I travel to Athens often and for decades, and have stayed in many 5-star hotels: NO OTHER hotel is better value than Semiramis. The remodel of the pool and bar area is STUNNING. BRAVI to owners, management and all staff! Hospitality the way it should be.
- Randy (10/5): I LOVE THIS PLACE! - I stumbled upon this property last year during my first visit to Greece. I returned this year, as I knew that I would delight in the service from the entire team: from check in to check out....and I was NOT disappointed. I LOVE THIS PLACE. The rooftop studio is my favorite hotel room EVER..and I have traveled to may places ...
- Dawn (5/5): Not quite the propert it used to be - It likely used to be a gorgeous place, however over time the furniture and decor has become worn and the room was not especially clean. I stayed one night before I was to have a group join, I ended up leaving and choosing a different hotel for our group
- Anastasia (10/5): -
- Carine (7/5): - La décoration, la piscine, tout est " pop" et lumineux Chambre petite, mal insonorisée. On entend trop les voisins de chambre, les douches, etc..
- Maria (7/5): Staff was accommodating and attentive. - Location was near venue we were attending.
Staff was friendly and attentive. Furniture and decor, carpets are dated - we were on 2nd floor and could hear street traffic.
- alexandra (10/5): -
- Aliya (10/5): -
- Andreas (10/5): Great hotel - Great hotel, amazing service from all the team. I’ve stayed there before and I’ll definitely stay there again in the future!

- Guest (1/5): -
- Sigal (6/5): תודה ושלום - ארוחת בוקר טובה מאד מיטה איומה ולא נוחה
- Angeliki (10/5): Heaven in Kifissia - The design and location
- Deborah (10/5): Exceptional -
- Timotheos (10/5): Exceptional -
- malibugypsy (10/5): Still good - Still my favorite. I think the rooms are just as good as they always were. Breakfast buffet fantastic with lots of options and classic Greek yogurt and fruit which is what I like but there is lots of meat stuff as well. Amazing staff. Great linen. Tried the pool for the first time and it is so, so beautiful like a painting really. Pastry chef very good as well.
- Karen (10/5): Out of this world - Fabulous from check in to check out
- Dawn (8/5): - Hotel was funny and fun
- Brian (10/5): - Very colorful, great location, and a wonderful staff.
- Celia (10/5): A beautiful designed hotel with a lovely concept in allocating the shared areas and room descriptions. Very nice aesthet - Fun and quirky decor. Loved the colour and concept hotel. Beautiful pool and day lounge area. Toilette were nice quality. Nice location amongst a quiet upscale neighborhood. Easy walking to restaurants and shops. The rooms are a bit tight for 2 people. Not enough room to layout your luggage. Prefer no carpet in rooms. It shows wear and tear and hard to clean.
- AnitaColbier (10/5): Nice stay in unique hotel - Unique hotel, with pink& green colored everything. Stayed for one night before we flew out. Check in was easy. Pool/bar staff were friendly. Room was clean and bed comfortable. We walked to restaurants nearby. Just wished rooms had coffee in the room or complimentary in lobby.
- 206Seattle (10/5): Fun and practical - From the moment we entered the hotel, we felt delighted in a friendly psychedelic experience. The design is fun and practical at the same time. The rooms are efficient, comfortable, and well designed. Excellent bed, linens and towels. Great Shower. We had stayed in Athens before at a fancy hotel downtown. Semiramis' location in a beautiful neighborhood allowed us to see another part of Athens, with more locals and local activity.
- Constantina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Freedom46907064118 (10/5): Excellent hotel - Beautiful hotel. The rooms were very pretty and comfortable. The hotel has underground parking which was a big plus for us as we had rented a car and overnight parking is expensive. The location of the hotel is good as there are many restaurants within walking distance. The breakfast at the hotel was delicious. Would recommend this for all.
- Michelle (9/5): Relaxing stay before leaving Athens - Great location, close to restaurants and shops
- Michelle (9/5): Superb -
- May (7/5): Clean and quiet but needs more atmosphere - Cleanliness and neatness Poor breakfast for the high price paid
Νo coffee in the room
- Mark (10/5): - We loved the location, staff was great, and it was easy for car, taxi and public transportation
- 41dimi (10/5): Always delivers excellent experiences - Hands down, the best, most efifcient hospitality team in the country. All committed to impeccable service and an amazing guest journey, visit after visit. Well done, team. Front desk team are champions. See you soon.
Despite management changes, the core values have remained intact.
- Sokol (8/5): Very good -
- Sevasti (10/5): Exceptional -
- Alexander (10/5): Exceptional -
- Andreas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Andreas (10/5): Business trip - Everything was great! Staff is always helpful and try to make your stay as good as possible!
- Glen (10/5): - I loved the funky, modern vibe of the hotel as well as all the artwork. The only thing I didn't like is that we couldn't stay longer.
- Kafkas (8/5): - Good neighborhood, rooms with basic comfort level, must have been very unique by the time it was designed, but feels out of date for today..
- Lars (6/5): - It is not even a 3 star. Worn down...
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The weird lack of a way to effectively communicate hotel rooms (they use stickers) led to annoyance after the first day. At least give each room a name related to the sticker. Something. The rooms are in need of a refresh, hopefully they will follow the restaurant update that was just completed. Staff was friendly and efficient. Food was good.
- DeeBee_Cooper (8/5): Amazing staff, funky vibe, in a nice neighborhood outside the city. Super clean property but ready for a facelift. - The staff here was some of the friendliest we’ve come across in a long time!
We stayed here for our one-night stop in Athens between flights. It’s *not* the most convenient location for either the airport nor downtown but it’s a near quiet neighborhood with restaurants and bars around. We also used the train to get down to the Acropolis - easy and inexpensive.
The staff here was just amazing - so very friendly and ready to help with recommendations on everything from things to see, how to use public transit, and how to avoid taxi scams.
As Bonvoy Platinum our room was upgraded to a Premium room with a large balcony and breakfast was included. Decent breakfast. Our room was a bit tired (wear on the carpets, door handles, etc) but spotless-clean with no stains or smells or anything like that.
We visited in October so we didn’t use the pool but had a great view of it from our balcony. The pool area looked to have a cool design and vibe.
Would visit again.
Pros:
- amazing staff
- quirky hotel vibe and clean accommodations
- clean quiet beautiful neighborhood
- 15 min walk to train station (€1.20 to downtown)
Cons:
- rooms are a bit tired and ready for updates
- 45-minute train ride to downtown
- 30-minute cab ride to airport (€50)
- 630zaidam (10/5): Nice Experience - Check in was quick and all was done within less than 3 minutes. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and nice. The bathroom was very nice and clean. Furthermore the water pressure was nice. Breakfast was YUMI and delicious.
- Randy (10/5): - I love this hotel. The staff took great care of me after losing my wallet and my phone I'm Santorini, gave great restaurant recommendations and helped facilitate a number of things for me to get back on track.
- BlomskiJ (10/5): Highly recommended - a sensory colour explosion. - Stayed here for 4 nights. I can’t fault the hotel. Firstly this is the first hotel I have ever stayed in that had great lightening and lots of lighting options in the room.
Room service, all meals were delicious. Would highly recommend the chicken with burnt lemon sauce.
Gym, well stocked and good range of machines and weights.
Fabulous pool area, although I did not get chance to use it. But appreciated my view from room balcony.
Would definitely recommend this hotel and I would not hesitate to stay here again,
- Andreas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sydney (7/5): Funky hotel with nice pool area - Great pool area, nice neighbourhood. We liked the bold interior, however some parts are a bit outdated and need some renovation
- joseph (10/5): - We have stayed here a few times. Unfortunately they were doing some construction down by the pool so it was quite noisy during the day. We really like the four rooms on the top floor.
- Avi (8/5): - in residential area, quite and frendly
- Ornela (3/5): Overatied - The room was too small. Smelling and a little old
- Alison (10/5): Repeat stays over many years. - Always a pleasure to stay here. Friendly staff and a perfect pool. We Always choose a bungalow as it’s like having a mini home.
- Neil (10/5): Best hotel! - Unique hotel, so cool but great staff as well. Perfect. By far the best hotel in this part of Athens, if not all of Athens. Nothing
- Michail (10/5): - Great facilities, rooms and location
- Oana (10/5): Exceptional -
- JFragis (8/5): Very pleasant - The hotel staff were very helpful and generally the service levels were very good. Whatever we asked for was provided efficiently and with a smile. Faultless.
The hotel amenities and pool area are contemporary and well appointed and again service is immaculate
When we were leaving they accommodated out late departure gracefully
The only criticism would be that the rooms are really small. Every convenience is available but the room itself is small.
Other than that I’d recommend the hotel
- Culture48220906636 (10/5): Fantastic August 2024 Family Holiday... - Staff fantastic especially stavvas and his team in breakfast who catered for a dairy allergy and maid service do some fantastic towel animals .. definitely recommend.... Pool area clean and tidy not heated but only by the sun, cool to get in but once in very nice and refreshing, good location .
- RunnerMike1977 (10/5): One Of The Best Hotels I've Stayed At In Greece - The Semiramis was such a wonderful surprise! I've been to Athens many times, but brought my friend this time, who's never been. My friend's one requirement was a great pool area, so after searching all of the Marriott properties in the Athens area, I ended up selecting this one. From check-in to check-out and everything in between, this hotel proved to be excellent.
The Semiramis is an unusual and eclectic hotel, but manages to feel high-end and stylish. If you stay here, you have to love pink! The incredible pool area was the highlight. There are so many places to lie out and plenty of opportunity to get sun or shade. William, the server, was absolutely amazing! He couldn't do enough for us and he was so sweet! We still talk about him and miss his kindness. There is also a great fitness center. It was surprisingly well-equipped for a hotel of this smaller size. Breakfast was included in my rate, but this was the only disappointment. The food was not very appetizing and there wasn't a varied selection. But breakfast was brightened up by the amazing William! Reception staff were all so kind and helpful. The rooms are fun and super comfortable. My room was immaculately clean and the cleaning lady was so lovely! The small balcony in even the basic room was very welcome. I really appreciated the wine and welcome note left for me by management.
This hotel is located in Kifissia, which itself is a cute area to shop and eat. We went into Athens each night for dinner and it was a cheap and easy 20 minute Uber ride. This hotel is a great and affordable option for people who want to visit Athens, but not pay the exorbitant costs of the city hotels in the summer.
I absolutely loved this hotel and will definitely be back.
- margiepou (4/5): Great, welcoming staff; rooms old and dirty - The hotel staff is amazing and the location is gorgeous. The breakfast was pretty good. The rooms are old, worn down, and smell like mold. We moved rooms twice and each room smelled like mold. I don’t recommend this hotel until they do a massive renovation.
- Jordan (6/5): - Not a 5 star hotel
- Yiannis (10/5): - I am usually pretty good at finding things to nitpick. In this case I’m failing. Oh, right, the garage entry (free with your stay) has narrow sidewalks and takes some effort to navigate. That’s it.
- Luz (10/5): - Beautiful hotel, the interior design is unique! Flowers, plants and all around! Magical
Luz A. LOVERN
- Kosta (10/5): - Nice staff and clean.
