Basically but adequately furnished in a prime location within less than half a kilometre of the leading Grand Bretagne and King George Hotels on Syntagma Square. Our room was streetside on the seventh floor and commanded a magnificiant view of the Acropolis. Staff were very friendly and obliging and there was a generous breakfast included in the room tariff.

We stayed at Astor during Sep. Central Location is the best part about the hotel, its next to main attractions and public transport. Rooms are small and view is great only if you get a room on the 9th floor (3 rooms only). Breakfast is ok, Hotel staff is friendly and try to help as much as they can. For... more

We stayed at the Astor our last night in greece. Great location and friendly staff, they even carried our bags to the room and showed us how to use the ac. Everything was great until we went to sleep and thats when the bed bugs came alive! I woke up the next morning with about 10-15 bites all over my... more

Great location - wonderful view from the roof restaurant - good breakfast - good value at 90.00 euro per night for a double -kind staff. And so where is the problem? well, to my standard, it is a bit dirty. Stains all over the room - bathroom just ok. I mean, it is not a dump, but if the most... more

I've stayed near Syntagma Square before and have found it an ideal location from which to explore Athens. Very central, very safe, not at all seedy. This hotel is just off Syntagma, a couple of hundred yards from the exclusive Grande Bretagne and Athens Plaza hotels and both the metro and the airport bus stop are 5 minutes walk away.... more

We stayed at the Astor Hotel for 2 nights as part of our honeymoon through Europe. It is about 30 minutes in a taxi from the airport. The reception staff were quite friendly and we had no problem with check-in. We took our own bags up to our room in the elevator. We were expecting the room to be quite... more

We recently stayed 3 nights at the hotel on 2 occasions. This hotel is very well placed, near Syntagma square, bus and metro station, Ermou st and Plaka. Everything is within walking distance. This hotel has 10 floors, sprinkler protected in the hallways only. On the first nights, we stayed in a room with balcony on a side street (Voulis):... more

My wife and I (in our sixties) spent two nights in Hotel Astor.The best thing is the location. One block from Syntagma Sqare, close to the parliament building,Plaka area (10 minutes walk), the Acropolis and Parthenon. Syntagma square is the nerve centre of that part or perhaps the whole of Athens.While we were there, elections to the European Parliament were... more

The Astor is in a terrific location, far from the rundown warzone of Omonia Square. It's one block from Syntagma Sq, and just a few minutes from Parliament, the National Gardens, and the main pedestrian shopping street. Another ten minutes walk gets you to the flea markets and just beyond is the Acropolis. To the east are the steep, funky... more
