I have been staying at this Hotel and location for the last 12 years before it became The Graduate and it use to be the Foundry and I have always had great service and if there ever was a problem, they always have corrected it immediately, and the new manager, Michael, is the BEST!! I have recently stayed in the Hoyt House and if you ever get the chance, and I know it is a little more money, but is it SO worth every penny more to stay in the Hoyt House. The AC is like central AC not like the other rooms and the 3 suites are so much bigger and I just loved the one I stayed in. I would without any hesitation recommend this hotel and location to any quests. The Spa is also delighting and a massage is to die for. The only down fall is they now are charging guests for parking overnight which I STRONGLY DISAGREE with that policy and if they want to keep their guests happy and keep them coming back, then charge the customers using the lounge NOT staying in the hotel. It can be loud when they have events, so be sure to stay away from the lounge when that happens. I would not stay anywhere else in Athens. For those that had a bad experience, I would encourage you to give them another try because the manager, Michael, really does care about the customers and he will make it right!!! You can also speak to Calla, she has been there when it was The Foundry and she is great with customers and if you ever have a problem and Michael is not available, i would advise you to ask for her. Again, this is the best place to stay in Athens, and they have security at night that patrol the grounds and you never have to worry about anything. You can bring your pets if they are well behaved and they do not charge you extra.
