Sofitel Athens AirportAthens International Airport, 190 19 Athens (Show map) Excellent, Score from 907 reviews“Very nice hotel with everything you need to be comfortable. We had just finished a three-week excursion in Greece and stayed at the Sofitel the night before our flight back to the US. It was perfect of two weary travelers.”

The best thing about this hotel its that its next to the airport. The isolation is perfect - no noise coming from the aiport. The room itself was nice enough. It had a tub, a shower a tv, and the room was fairly large. The food from the room service was ok too. Saves you the trouble of going up and down in the centre of Athens. The staff and service was impeccable. It is not a 5* hotel. Its a good four star but due to the services it offers they raised it to 5*. I was there for 12 hours and paid 150euros. My flight (which was the reason I was stopping there) was 300 euros. You do the maths. The food was not the food of a 5* hotel. It was more of a 4* hotel. The deco was dated and this hotel should be around 100-120 euros tops. The reason they can charge what they charge is the location. Nothing else, provides a valid excuse.

The freindliness of the hotel staff. I appreciate and respect their beautiful English. The real live person calling the 0400 wake up call after the automated system just to verify was appreciated. The staff made the difference between a routine hotel stay and a very comfortable, relaxing time.

The Athens airport is directly across the street. Food is available 24 hours a day. I was very impressed, and enjoyed the shower facility. Also, wonderful idea having the bathrobes. Very thick and fluffy bedsheets. Coffee, tea, and water are in the room--at no charge. Wonderfull hotel.

Had to be up at 3:30 am for a 5:00 flight out of Athens Airport. Our room looked right over the airport, but was super quiet. We arrived late in the evening from another flight, so we were upgraded to a great suite. Our only negative is we had no time to use the hotel's facilities - but that was our own scheduling issue.

The perfect location, 24h service even in the restaurant, kind staff, smoking room, and the most amazing is that you can't hear any noise like the landing&take off from all the airplanes, while it is so romantic at night to see from your window all the little lights from the runway and the airplanes. We found it awesome!!! Not many choices for restaurants and bars within the hotel. The price of the room and especially the prices of the menu in the restaurants are too expensive. Basically, it's a disadvantage for the hotel cause the residents can walk in the airport that it is 50meters far and have lunch or dinner there! So, by reducing the price of the rooms or restaurant menu could be busier this hotel, it's a wonderful place.

This hotel has an excellent location adjacent to Athens airport. With the ongoing strikes of taxis and the subway in Athens this is a very important feature if you dont want to be stranded in the city and unable to make your flight. It has all the facilities you would expect from a luxury chain and the staff are very friendly and professional. It can be very expensive however for the vacationer who is not on a compant expense card. No complaints we were just passing through Athens and only spent a total of 10 hours in the hotel

We stayed at the Sofitel Airport because we were flying to Skiathos the following day and arrived late in the evening from Venice. Lovely comfortable room with all 5 star amenities. Indoor pool was a bonus. As, it happened, there was a transport strike and had we stayed in Athens for the night, a transfer to the airport would have been difficult. The room was very quiet and no associated airport noise was audible. I do think breakfast should be included in all 5 star hotels when a room is booked. This is an opinion of all hotels not only the Sofitel.

We chose Sofitel Athens solely because of its proximity to the airport. With the unpredictable transportation situation due to strikes, walking distance to the airport seemed like the best, albeit expensive, way to ensure that we'd make our early morning flight. The hotel is gorgeous. The staff extremely attentive and helpful. The soft jazz musac that was playing through the sound system all night was painful. Mind you, I like jazz, but this piped stuff just didn't cut it.

The swimming pool is very good and the silence inside the rooms. I called the reception the night before our flight to be awaked at 7 in the morning. I was not called and they could not find any registration and suggested that next time would be better to make a written request, what I think is unnecessarily. I am really used to travel and don't think a wake up call must be so complicate.

Excellent proximity to airport and very comfortable spacious room. We appreciated being upgraded. Very inflexible only having a maximum of two people per room. We had to pay for a second room just to accommodate our son. As we had booked via the internet and if was unrefundable we were then unable to cancel and book elsewhere as the cost was then very expensive for us, particularly compared with the rest of Greece where we had travelled for nearly four weeks. Then had to ring twice to get the adjoining door open by staff. At check in we were clearlytold internet was free however got billed 18 euro for internet at checkout. The TV was very boring, all the business and news channels that repeated everything was extremely boring and the movie channel was expensive per movie. TV movie channels or programs of interest would be better. The hotel was expensive for meals also. We would recommend the Sofitel Athens Airport due to proximity but not for a family and we would point out the above. Thank you for asking for our opinion.

Upon arrival I was appointed as guest of the day which entitled me to: free upgrade to Executive suite, access to the vip lounge (which means free breakfast in the morning and food items 24/7), also a free drink at the bar. The staff were very eager to help. The internet access was also excellent, and free upon arrival. I normally wouldn't stay at such a hotel to keep my own costs down, but they certainly made the stopover worth it. I suppose if I had paid full price for the executive room, I would have been annoyed by the hairs in the bathtub. So, if you are looking for absolute perfection in all areas, it falls slightly short. Apart from that, there was nothing at all wrong with the room whatsoever. 99.9% perfect.
