Periscope

The Periscope is a pretty boutique hotel in a great location, with sleek rooms and thoughtful amenities like complimentary snacks and drinks, quality toiletries, soundproof windows, a Nespresso machine, and a lovely rooftop view. However, I was disappointed by the inconsistency in how Marriott elite status was recognized. Despite my Platinum status, I was told an upgrade wasn’t available due to the hotel being fully booked. That turned out not to be the case, which felt a bit disingenuous. I usually choose Marriott properties because of the consistency of service and recognition across the brand—unfortunately, this experience didn’t quite meet that expectation.

Very nice hotel with a cool lobby that is comfortable to chill in midday or before/after checkout. Location was excellent we were so happy to discover a new neighborhood of Athens. Reception was very helpful and welcoming. Room had what you need, with decent space. Great value for money.

The Periscope is a nice boutique hotel. Walking distance to nice restaurants. The lobby vibe is great, relaxing and welcoming. Would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend. The front desk staff were great and offered to arrange our taxi to the airport for us - they even rescheduled for us as our flight was delayed.
