We stayed one night at the Amazon Hotel on the night of our arrival in Athens. We arrived about 10:30 p.m. so chose the Amazon because it is very close to Syntagma Square, about 5 minutes walk from where the airport express bus stops. The hotel is on a well lit street (Mitropoleos), and we felt quite safe there. It... more

Stayed overnight before embarking on a cruise starting in Athens. It was 2 short blocks from Syntagma Square where there is a Metro station direct from the airport. Many attractions, hotels, restaurants and shops here. The Accropolis is the main historical attraction nearby. The night view of it from the Square is the postcard we've all seen. The Amazon Hotel... more

I stayed at the Amazon for a few nights before a 7 day Greek Island cruise and one night after the cruise. I was lucky to get a room on the top floor facing the Acropolis and the view was fantastic. Having traveled in Europe a lot I was pleasantly surprised by the spacious size of the room. The shower... more

While heading to Crete, I spent one night on the 6th floor at the start of the trip, and 2 nights on the 1st floor on the way back home. Pros: The location is terrific. The X95 Airport bus to Syntagma Square stops about 3 blocks away next to the metro stop, and there are shopping and dining options on... more

We stayed here one night as we had an early morning flight. We stayed in several midrange or budget hotels on this trip to Greece and Israel -- all of which I would be glad to return to. However, the Amazon was on the higher end of physical accomodations--room, furnishings, etc. It struck us as clean and modern. We had... more

We had read through many of the reviews on TA and went in expecting the small rooms, tiny elevators and tiny showers. What we didn't expect was poor service. When we arrived, the receptionist did not even say "Welcome" or "Hello." She just asked for a passport and then gave us a key to Room 101. Because the room was... more

Clean and tidy hotel for easy going travellers that are planing to spend some time in Athens, Greece. It is located right in the centre of the city (Syntagma Square), and within walking distance from Plaka (the old town), Monastiraki, Acropolis and Thesion. Only few minutes away from Metro, Bus and Tram stations. The WC of our room (6th floor)... more

Yes... the "shower room" is small, but I am 6 foot and 15stone and it wasn't a problem. The room was clean and well decorated. The hotel is very close to everywhere you are palnning to see in Athens, and is in a safe area. The breakfast is basic and lacking imagination, but look at the cost! Athens is very... more

I like to keep my reviews short and to the point always starting with the bad. BAD- -Bathrooms were extremely small which isnt uncommon at these types of hotels. The shower however was very very small. If you are of the large persuasion you will not be comfortable. I am 5'7 and 140lbs and it was a tight squeeze. -The... more
