It's a bit expensive, There are no facilities at the hotel, except breakfast in the dining room and 24/7 reception.

Very clean and impression of all new in the hotel. Fully equipped kitchen with Nespresso coffee machine. Big room with balcony. Close to all Historical attractions and the Plaka area.

To make the room a little more comfortable it would have been nice to have carpeting near the bed. Also we had booked a junior suite with a garden view and balcony, but the balcony really only looked out at the building next door.

Overall, the visit to the Ava Hotel was wonderful. The breakfast was great, the staff, friendly and helpful, the room was large and the location was perfect. The back entrance to the Acropolis was two or three minutes away. We had no line to enter at 5:30 for a sunset climb. The Plaka with its pedestrian streets and restraurants, also two minutes away, and well at the Acropolis museum.

I can’t think of anything I didn’t like.

The property was wonderful! Great location, the room was large and a welcome gift was so thoughtful 😊

Everything was excellent. We did not try breakfast as we cooked a bit in our kitchenette.

Location was fantastic, room was exceptional and comfortable. We got the executive room which had a bedroom with balcony and a large living room with island with kitchenette and a pull up sofa bed. It was great for 2 adults and 2 children aged 13 and 7. We really enjoyed our time here. Vassia in the front desk really made an impression on us and was warm, inviting and made us feel comfortable immediately on arriving and throughtout our stay.

Our stay at AVA was definitely too SHORT! XAXAXA

We began staying at AVA Hotel on our annual trips to Greece about 5 years ago (2018). I initially found AVA using the Trip Advisor ratings. It's a small little "boutique hotel" in Athens, over near Hadrian's Arch. AVA hotel has become our "home in Athens" each year. We have a routine - we fly into Athens on Saturday afternoon, get to the hotel, and then go out to dinner. Sunday morning we get up, have breakfast, and begin our trip by going to the 11th century church of St Katherine's - which is about 200 feet away, down the street. We generally get a Jr. Suite overlooking Lysistratou (the front of the hotel). The view from the balcony is incredible - To the left is Hadrian's Arch, to the right is the Acropolis. After dropping our luggage, the family generally goes out onto the balcony - sees Hadrian's Arch, and says, "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....home again!" The staff is wonderful, the rooms are large and clean, and the beds are the BEST! A great way to begin your Greece adventure. And don't overlook the breakfast! They've had the same person running the kitchen for 5 years (Vassiliki). She is just solid GOLD! The breakfasts are extraordinary...and a great way to get everyone together to review the program for the day. We generally measure ALL BREAKFASTS in Greece by comparing them to AVA. For the next couple weeks, each morning we hear, "Better than AVA....nah!" Each year when we come home, the family tells me, "Adjust whatever else you want in our trip next year - JUST NOT AVA." My congratulations to the management of the hotel You have done something remarkable....year after year after year! BRAVO!!!

Unfortunately a fair bit of internal noise from adjoining and upper rooms. We could hear people talking late at night in room nextdoor, taps being turned on, and footsteps above. Not great if you’re a light sleeper.

Comfy room. Grear location with short walk to south slope of Acropolis and many other ancient sites. Completely soundproof from street noise.

Clean, stylish, comfortable, and close to everything! The staff was awesome and, having arrived before check-in, we were allowed to keep our luggage with the front desk until our room was ready.

The air conditioning in our room was not working, but the fan was provided, and the windows can be left opened without noise disturbance.

Superb location, friendly and helpful staff, room size, shower and bed

They were oddly stingy with bath linens. In particular, when I found no washcloths in the bathroom, I requested some and was given only one and pretty much told that was all I needed! And that was after the staff person inspected the bathroom to make sure I wasn't lying about having none!

Boutique hotel with a great location, low key, close to pretty much everything. Room was a true suite, with living room, kitchenette, large bedroom, 2-sink bathroom. Only stayed one night but would be great for a longer stay.

Location, staff. Our room was very spacious, super comfortable bed. The location was incredible! Great service, which for me makes a huge part of the experience . Front desk helped us arrange transportation. Jorge was great! We could only stay one night but we will definitely come back .

This hotel is in a perfect location if you have little time to explore the city. It was literally a 3 min walk to the entrance to the Acropolis and Museum. Close to great little restaurants coffee shops and souvenir shops as well! The room was spacious and looked fairly similar to the photos. Our plane was majorly delayed so we weren’t able to take the car they had arranged for us but that worked just fine. We used Uber in Athens for our whole trip and it was the same as it is in the US. Our only suggestion is ask to not be placed in the room on the first floor. It was right next to the kitchen and very loud first thing in the morning. The staff were all very helpful and friendly.
