Unfriendly welcome, and did not recognized booking (via hrs.com, they never heard about it). Old interior, small room, not really clean. High price. Luckely stayed only one night, with very early checkout. When asked for a coffee since I had to run for my flight, the answer was no. Never again this place. More

This is a older but clean hotel. It is sitting perfect for Metro ,buses and taxi's. It is located around a 10 minute walk to flea market and the Acoropolis. A 3 minute walk to the The Paraliment building and the changing of the guards. There is several restaurants in the same area. We used our room for evening nap... More

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights during our stay in Athens. I knew this was just an average hotel, but that's all we needed at the time. The location is great-steps from the Metro at Syntagma square and walking distance to the Acropolis and most of the sights. The hotel itself was clean and the breakfast was great.... More

We just returned from a visit to Greece (September 4 to 13th) I was a bit concerned when we first pulled up to the hotel but soon realized the hotel was in a great location. The hotel was in the city centre, close to all the markets (Plaka, etc), restaurants and attractions (Museum, Acropolis). The front desk staff were quite... More

Dirty, scary and awful. We felt unsafe. We asked for a room with a deadbolt that worked, they claimed we were safe because we had a key card. We were afraid to sleep in the beds. I would NOT shower there. The only thing it had was location. I don't want to know what all the stains were. The breakfast... More

Rooms were very average. Some more than a little tired. But they were clean and the beds were reasonably good. The location is very good. Close to Sytagma Square and the Plaka. many options for drinking, dining, shopping and sightseeing are close at hand. The rooftop garden patio offers wonderful views of the Acropolis, particularly at night when its all... More
