Astor Hotel

Мы дважды пользовались услугами отеля в апреле 2010. Очень удобное расположение отеля. На автобусе X95 добирались от аэропорта до площади Syntagma, а оттуда всего 200 метров до отеля. Также обратно, в аэропорт. Второй раз с парома приехали в отель рано – порядка 7 часов утра. Заселили через полчаса. Это было удобно, т.к. не пришлось ждать до 13 или 14 часов. Но как не просились, выше 3 этажа не поселили. Улица отеля идет параллельно Эрму (в 70-ти метрах) и хотя расположение несколько в стороне от основных туристических потоков, но всё равно по утрам шумно – стеклопакеты не спасают. Поэтому хотелось на более верхние этажи. Красивый вид на Акрополь из ресторана. Но на третий день восторги утихают, а постоянно работающие там краны начинают раздражать. Древние греки быстрее строили храм, чем нынешние его восстанавливают. Из некоторых номеров отеля (7-9 этажи) прямая видимость Акрополя. Завтрак нас более чем устраивал, хотя мясного и фруктов можно было бы и побольше. Очень понравились местные апельсины – сочные и сладкие. В отеле были какие-то WI-FI сети, но я ими не пользовался, а ходил на площадь Syntagma, садился в скверике на лавочку и подключался к свободной беспроводной athenswifi. Сигнал был хороший, но интернет несколько тормознутый. Среди обслуживающего персонала много нашего брата, убирают хорошо. Можно просто поболтать или узнать полезную информацию. В отзывах кто-то жаловался на отсутствие рядом супермаркетов. Если пойти от отеля по улице Lekka, то за первым перекрестком будет один небольшой, который нас устраивал.

Для отеля 4 звезды странно видеть обшарпанные обои номера, старые телевизоры с нечётким изображением экрана, разболтанную сантехнику. В номере при первом нашем заселении не было сейфа.

Amazing view to the Parthenon.

Maybe because it is an old building, I could hear everything that was going on in the room next to mine. However, the person in the reception was quick/efficient to fix it as soon as reported.

it is very close to the metro, the city square (syndigma) and close to some shopping.

The breakfast needs to improve. Fresh fruit would be better than canned fruit for example

I liked the location and the fact that there was always at least one front desk person who spoke English and could tell me about the best places to visit.

The bed was hard and there was nowhere to get water after the cafe closed. I had to walk two blocks through the city at close to midnight to get water to take my medication.

Excellent location to explore Athens attractions like the Acropolis, Agora and nightlife at the Praga area. 5min walk from Syntagma station, which connects you direct to the Airport in 40 minutes. Breakfest with view to the Acropolis was quite nice.

It is an old city centre hotel, rooms had a weird smell and the hotel has not been properly cared. Wallpaper in our room was peeing off! Rooms were big, which is a good point.

The roof restaurant is great since we can view Acropolis from there.

I wish there were a coffee maker in the room. The power of the toilet is weak.

The location and the breakfast - room view! Quite comfortable room. The reception staff was very helpfull and polite. I have been visiting this hotel for some years now and I always leave very pleased. I will be back soon!!

Although I booked for a smoking room I was told at the arrival that all rooms were non smoking. Not a problem though, as we could smoke outside with the perfect view of the Parhenon!

It was the best hotel in the aTHEN, I was in gREECE 3 time but this time was the best the location is excelend

very helpfull and happy staff. great view of city from resturant. close to everything easy to get to from airport

Very good location. Astor hotel located between Plaka and kolonaki. Hotel staff was kind. Breakfast was good. Especially restaurant's view was wonderful. Clean and quite room.

But matress was too stiff, wallpaper color was dull. old analog TV, light was dark, so I felt undelight mood in room. too small amount of shampoo.

Hotel staffs were very kind and very helpful to us. Room was clean and bathroom was good. Breakfast was good. Most important, hotel location is perfect. If I go to Athens again, I prefer this hotel certainly.

The location is perfect, just 200 m from Sintagma Square, which means, it is very close to public transport (airport) and Acropolis. The views from the breakfast room are gorgeous. Ask for a room with view to the Acropolis (from 6th floor upwards).

I booked a room with view to the Acropolis and one double bed 6 months in advance. They confirmed it but when we arrived we had the bed but no view. Apparently they just have a few rooms with both conditions, but they could have told, and they didn´t. After the first night we got the room with the view and two single beds. As regards breakfast, the buffet is ok, but quality by no means reaches Centre European standards, so don´t expect them. The orange juice is just undrinkable (chemical) as usually happens in most Greek hotels. It is a three star hotel.

Great location and good staff. View at breakfast was great.

Seemed a bit hit and miss as to whether you would get a good room. While our room was fine, it was really dark and the balcony faced straight into offices. Better to get room at front of building. Not a room we wanted to spend much time in.
