Lock in a great price for Ilissos – rated 8 by recent guests!

to get started.

We loved the view on the Acropole and the balcony. It was amazing to eat in front of it !

Jacqueline, France

Location is excellent if you want to go see the Parthenon

Marwa, Canada

Nice welcome at the reception and as I asked they upgraded my room to the top floor with view of Acropolis. All the rest was a bad experience!

Riccardo, Italy

Rooms were quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was lovely too.

Sophie, United Kingdom

But a little around the corner was cafes, coffee shops, and a few street away, shops and a busy bakery. Friday was open air market.

Sherry, United States of America

I liked the room size/ bathroom size + the room had a balcony with a table and two chairs. Bed was comfortable, there was free tea and coffee in the room. Very nice smelling toiletries in the bathroom! Staff is very positive and helpful.

Goluboff, Russia

The staff was very helpful (helped us with ordering a taxy, finding an ATM and with many other questions - very friendly). On our last day the receptionist allowed us to stay an hour later in our room (even though they were fully booked) as we had a late flight and lots of time to spare. Also offered to take our luggage behind the desk if we wanted to go and discover the city. Before arriving we read from other reviews that the hotel isn't easy to find, but we have had absolutely no issues finding it with our mobile GPS. There's a great view to the Acropolis from the hotel rooftop bar where you can also order drinks and food. Prices are quite cheap compared to other European hotels. The breakfast menu didn't have much, but all the essentials to have a good meal. Not a luxury hotel, but very affordable and a nice hotel for that money. Definitely recommend!

Tanel, Estonia

The hotel has an elegant lobby and the staff is really very kind and helpful. The room (especially the bed) is very comfortable. The bathroom is very clean with a big mirror and a comfortable bathtub.

Miriam, Italy

Very close to metro stations, made it easy to travel to the local sights. Easy check in/out and was able to easily organise a taxi to Piraeus for an early morning ferry.

Emma, Australia

ony thing well worth is the Partenon view from the roof top terrace

눉Everything was fine till we came back in the room after a visit to the Acropolis, we noticed that someone was in the room between 18.30 and 21.30 because our fridge got refilled and I was missing money from my wallet... I called reception to ask what happened and why somebody was in the room... they first said they had no way to see what happened but than she said she will speak to service department and she’ll let me know... after half an hour she called me back to say that they had problems with people not paying drinks in last days so someone from service department went in our room to double check the fridge after we left in the afternoon! To me that doesn’t sound correct. And when I said yes but I’m missing 50€ from my wallet (lucky that’s all I had in) they asked my why we didn’t use the safe in the room... like if it was legit to take money from wallets left out of the safe... obviously no cameras in the rooms so I will never know who did it... but yes it happened there in HOTEL ILISSOS **** in center of Athens! I’ll never be back there!
눇Nice welcome at the reception and as I asked they upgraded my room to the top floor with view of Acropolis. All the rest was a bad experience!

눉It seemed rather quiet and to order drinks/food on the roof top you had to first order room service and ask it to be brought up top because no one was around to serve you. Was a good 15-20min walk to Acropolis
눇Rooms were quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was lovely too.

눉The receptionist in the afternoon was very impolite! He didn't even know wich room have double or single bed. We asked for a quite double room, because we were very exhausted, but he gave us a front side room, wich are very noisy. There was 2 single beds but he didn't belived that untill he came to the room :D :D . He said, we shouldn't read reviews and that room would be fine for a one night stay.. (Then we changed our room and it was totally fine, so all in all we had a pleasant stay.)
눇We changed our room once, but the new room was quite good, big enough, confortable, a bit old fashioned but clean. The receptionist in the morning was very kind, helpfull, just like the breakfast staff. The breakfast very good with traditional greek food. The rooftop terrace has an amazing view,it's a shame that it is practically not used as it's renovated and looks really nice but noone is there from the hotel besides the menu-cards, but can't order upsairs. you can just go up with your own dink and food and enjoy the Acropolis view.

눉Actually, location is good - even though i rate it 4 out 5. It is about 10 min walk to the subway - which is ok, of course - but one should know that if you go out of the subway on another side of the street - you should then cross it as soon as possible otherwise there won't be any cross for about several bus stops - as the road has a metal lane divider - hence, no possibility to cross the road where you need to... wasn't too convenient with my luggage but i managed to figure it out after all.
눇I liked the room size/ bathroom size + the room had a balcony with a table and two chairs. Bed was comfortable, there was free tea and coffee in the room. Very nice smelling toiletries in the bathroom! Staff is very positive and helpful.

눉This isn't a 4 star hotel at all. It is a 3 stars (maybe even only 2) even if I have to admit the price wasn't bad but only because it was aligned with the quality of the hotel. Breakfast very poor with powder juice that taste worst than the medicines they gave me when I was a child. First night I wanted to have a drink in the roof top terrace but no one showed up after more than 30' waiting even the service was supposed to be open for at least one more hour.
눇ony thing well worth is the Partenon view from the roof top terrace
