First of all I would like to make clear that this was not my first option for a hotel in Athens. I've chosen another beautiful hotel near Omonia Square. But some friends of mine in Athens strictly recommended to change, since the surroundings of that locaton had turned very unsafe since last year crisis. Having said this, I accepted a... More

The location of the hotel is fantastic - if you catch the X95 bus from the airport to the final stop in Athens all you need to do is turn your back to the parliament building and cross the road and walk approx 50 metres and the hotel is right there you can't miss it so great for the tired... More

The advantage is the location of this hotel. It's in the center of Athens. Only a few steps from syntagma. On the other hand the room corresponds in its low price. Nothing special.

I stayed at this hotel with a group of university students for a study unit overseas. The location is perfect - Syntagma Square is literally 50m from this hotel. It therefore is possible to walk to the main sites easily and it is also very close to the nice shopping areas in the city and the market. The breakfast at... More

Unfriendly welcome, and did not recognized booking (via hrs.com, they never heard about it). Old interior, small room, not really clean. High price. Luckely stayed only one night, with very early checkout. When asked for a coffee since I had to run for my flight, the answer was no. Never again this place.

This is a older but clean hotel. It is sitting perfect for Metro ,buses and taxi's. It is located around a 10 minute walk to flea market and the Acoropolis. A 3 minute walk to the The Paraliment building and the changing of the guards. There is several restaurants in the same area. We used our room for evening nap... More

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights during our stay in Athens. I knew this was just an average hotel, but that's all we needed at the time. The location is great-steps from the Metro at Syntagma square and walking distance to the Acropolis and most of the sights. The hotel itself was clean and the breakfast was great.... More

Very close to the square, Plaka, Acropolis and entertainment, restaurants. Felt very safe and enjoyed walking in the area.
