My stay at Nox Olympia was quite a mix of experiences. The rooms, while small, were clean and had everything I needed, but I faced some issues that left me disappointed. The staff were friendly but slow to respond at times, and the breakfast, while reasonably priced, could have offered a wider selection.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. The hotel was in a great location, very close to Olympia, which made accessing the exhibition center easy. While my room was clean and had basic amenities, it was on the smaller side, and the walls were quite thin, which made for a somewhat disrupted night’s sleep. The staff were friendly and attentive, providing helpful service, and I appreciated the reasonably priced breakfast, although it could have been a bit warmer.
