My boy friend and I stayed in Best Zinon for 3 nights. The hotel room was clean and functional, except that the shower space was very very limited. The staff were friendly too. The location was convenient as a base to explore Athens but the streets around were dodgy and threatening. I would never want to walk alone at night.... more

Stayed here for 5 nights during a work conference with a female colleague and I wouldn't recommend it. We'd read to reviews and they were so mixed we decided not to change hotels at the last minute which was a mistake. I had my purse stolen from my bag at Omonia metro before we'd even checked in - they appear... more

I looked for a hotel in Athens just a couple of days before my arrival, looking for something not so expensive. I guessed it was a mission impossible, instead I found on lastminute.com this hotel for 55€ single room/night. I read on this site that the zone is not so safe ... but I do not totally agree. Athens in... more

My girlfriend and I booked a room at the Best Western Hotel Zinon, Greece for a City Break in June 2008. I had taken the time to read the various reviews on trip advisor and although there were mixed messages (good and bad) we decided to take a chance. Upon arrival in Greece we took the metro from the Athens... more

The Zinon is a good, clean hotel located about 20 minutes walk north of the Acropolis area. Staff are friendly, rooms are clean (bathroom not exactly spacious however), breakfast adequate, in all very good value for money. Location is good except that some of the streets around are rather dark and dodgy (eg Zinonos) and best avoided by single travellers... more

We stayed here in May 2008 for 68 EUR/night for 2 people. We got a double bed, which was actually two twins pushed together. We booked the "Quiet Location" room, which had a balcony facing a concrete wall. But it was indeed quiet. The hotel itself was basic and clean. The shower stall was very small with a shower curtain... more

The staff was exceptional. Service was good. Convenient location -- very centrally located in Athens. I would stay there again if I visit Athens. more

Chosen as a budget choice after reading the Tripadvisor reviews, paid 80Euros/night which is reasonable for Athens. Took the metro from the airport, which was good value, clean and easy to use. The Omonia stop is within 5 minutes walk from the Metro, it was tricky at night to find the hotel, as it doesn't stand out from the surrounding... more

We used the hotel to attend a conference so cannot comment on accessibility to tourist attractions, but it is central, and 5 mins walk from the Metro station. Hotel was extremely good value at about £50 per night. Clean, recently refurbished and with helpful staff, the only negative was mediocre breakfast....I prefer to breakfast out, so it didn't bother me.... more
