Although the Savoy provided adequate lodging the night before our cruise, I could not whole-heartedly recommend it. The positives were the location near the port, the clean, modern lobby area, the friendly staff, and having a nice restaurant for dinner and breakfast in the hotel (although the breakfast area was very crowded). A big negative was the cramped bathroom, which left much to be desired. The toilet was crammed very tightly between the shower and the sink counter and the shower curtain was very flimsy, blowing all around, while the shower curtain rod actually fell on me when I entered the tub. The other negative was that the rooms were advertised as sound proof but one could hear everything out in the hallway. Unfortunately, we were awakened around 2:00 in the morning by a loud argument in the hallway and someone yelling they would call the police. We did not feel safe in that environment. The hotel staff seemed completely unaware of the altercation and shrugged it off the next morning when my husband informed them. In retrospect, we should have stayed another night at our very nice central Athens hotel (the Acropolis Select) and taken a taxi directly to the port terminal for our cruise.
