Lock in a great price for Phidias Hotel – rated 8.3 by recent guests!

to get started.

Excellent location! Within walking distance to Monesteraki and Syntagma.

Pearl, United Arab Emirates

This was our second stay at the Phidias hotel. You should not expect luxury or amazing facilities, but what you will get is a hotel in an amazing position which is clean, has friendly and helpful staff and will more than meet your needs and expectations. Try and google street view it. You are amongst a safe and lively promenade with views to the Acropolis just outside the door. It is a short walk to restaurants and bars, the Acropolis, and plenty of markets and shopping as well. Just beware when catching a taxi as there are apparently two hotels with the same name. Our driver took us to the wrong hotel and we had to pay the extra fare.

Graeme, Australia

Very good hotel at a very good placement and well communicated. The staff members are very nice and professional. Breakfast very good . Recommended too if you travel with children.

Mencia, Spain

We had 3 adults in our party so they put us in a small room with 2 twin beds and a very small cot. There was absolutely no room for us to even open our suitcases or move around. I asked the staff at front desk if we could get a bigger room and she informed me that she would have a family room available the next day for 30 euro extra a night. We took it because there was no way the 3 of us would be happy liked up in the room. After the upgrade was so much accommodating. Breakfast was very Good, wait staff were very attentive. Clean rooms and staff very pleasant.

Dolores, Germany

The hotel is clean and clear with a good breakfast and close to the Acropolis. The area is well served with restaurants and close to the train station.

Iarafc, Brazil

The acropolis is a short 10mins walk away which is incredibly convenient. It’s situated on a popular pedestrian street and close to many restaurants. The area seems very neat and safe which I’ve heard is not the case for all of Athens. Staff are polite and are happy to organise taxis for you which is helpful.

Linda, Australia

Just a short walk from the Acropolis, a nice central location in Athens and within walking distance from restaurants, cafes, train station. Air conditioned.

Natalie, Australia

Such great value for money, great local, super friendly staff and fantastic brekky.

Alex, Australia

Very friendly and welcoming hotel staff and eager to accommodate requests, and restaurant staff very helpful and friendly too. Location is absolutely excellent - opposite large gardens with ruins, on a pedestrianised road 5 mins walk from entrance to Acropolis and 10 mins from Plaka.

Mireille, Malta

Our stay was really good! The apartment is comfortable and was clean. The location is amazing, really close to Athens main attractions. The breakfast was good. And the staff was really friendly!
