Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
The hotel staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and more than willing to share their local knowledge of the area. Its position to local attraction, restaurants and bars is excellent.
AustraliaThe hotel is situated near Thissio Metro station (just 3-5 mins walk). The staff is very friendly. The room was very clean. The hotel's breakfast was very rich. Due to the COVID-19, the breakfast was provided individually, we just took the tray and eat in the room. For lunch and dinner, the hotel offers meals for 15 euros/person, but you can order food from e-food.gr to deliver to the hotel and eat in your room. Next time when we'll go to Athens, we'll definitely stay at this place.
GreeceThe staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was like and old neighborhood .You could see acropolis and the park opposite the hotel. I will definitely come back.
GreeceAmazing location, nice staff, great value for money at 35 Euros per night for a single room.
GreeceExcellent value for money. Location cant be more central than this. Everything is on walking distance and metro is a few hundred feet away. The staff was super friendly and cooperative starting from a very late check-in due to late arrival of my ferry till the late checkout and change of room request in the middle of the stay. The breakfast was reasonably good and was a bonus to be included in room rent. A big plus was to be able to order a fresh coffee from Barista and not just getting usual dirty hot water from a pot :) Very good experience overall at this rate and highly recommended. One tip for those who want a quiet room, ask them to not give you a street facing room as it will remain very noisy 18 hours a day :) I didn't mind that anyway :)
United Arab EmiratesEverything. Beautiful hotel in a great location. Wonderful helpful staff.
United States of AmericaThe folks who work at the hotel are helpful and nice. Great location, you can get to the Acropolis and other sites and parks very quickly. There are many stores and restaurants nearby. The subway station is a short walk away. This is a really good choice if you want to be near the historic places of Athens.
United States of AmericaGreat location and the breakfast is just wonderful!!
