Melia Athens Reviews
Athens itself is a pot-hole strewn with graffiti and beggars. Once you have seen the Plaka (good fun) and Parthenon (try to go before 10am or after 12pm as the crowds are horrendous) , thru the tangle of construction pipes, and the other interesting monuments your best bet is hire a private taxi (georgetaxitours@yahoo.com) and treat yourself to a private day or two in air-conditioned mercedes and see the really interesting parts of Greece around Athens. Empties your pocket but we learned about Greece and had such fun with our chauffeur that it rates 5/5 for value for money.
Athenians have not learned, or have lost the ability to, smile. Perhaps this is city life but it did not give me the urge to revisit. A very beautiful coastline with very interesting history but the lack of manners and good humour in all that beauty is like a mudstain on a marble floor--you want to avoid it.
