I thought the staff was friendly and helpful. And the bartenders take you out to local spots and to the Acropolis at night. Which is amazing! Super great location. Breakfast was ok. My room had a balcony which was quite enjoyable. Some of the rooms didn't lock the best, but lockers were provided. Great people and 50 euro cent ozone... more

Pros: Close to the Acropolis. Great view if you just walk a few blocks down. Can walk to almost anything from the hostel. Good sight-seeing base. Great Staff- very very friendly and very helpful Great place to meet others Easy to get to. Cons: One bathroom for several people. Some may find bathroom not that clean. May find yourself waiting... more

My friend and I stayed for three nights at Athens Backpackers in the beginning of June. It was decent for the first night- bed were fine, room of 6 people was good, the staff were friendly. Breakfast was mediocre. However, after our second day of touring Athens, we came back to our room and as I was about to sit... more

I never got to actually stay in this Hostel, as they were full when I tried to book it, but the staff there adopted me and took very good care of me. My friend's plane was delayed, so we used the hostel as a "message center" to keep in contact. The staff took messages for us and helped us to... more

We were booked in to stay at Athens Backpackers but they put us in Athens Studios instead because they were full. The studios were great so we didn’t complain. We were still able to use the rooftop bar, which had the most amazing views of the Acropolis at night. Plus, you recieved a free drink of ouzo. In terms of... more

Athens Backpackers was not the greatest hostel I have ever stayed at, but not the worst either. I would probably not stay here again. Good stuff: - Great location, right near the metro station and the Acropolis - Beds were comfortable, lockers were next to the beds - Great rooftop Bad stuff: - Very very very noisy (our room was... more

My mate and I were stuck in Athens for a night and decided to stay at the Athens Backpackers. We were kindly given a shared studio bed at late notice. The place is clean, tidy and neat however the true fiend in my disgruntled review is my little bed bug friends. If you are prone to bed bug bites, come... more

Great location in Athens. Walking distance to all sites and areas. We recommend you do the walking tour with them for 8 euro, very good and allows you to get an idea of the area. 6 beds and 1 bathroom to share per room. Lockers in the room. Roof top bar is great at night to meet people and you... more

I stayed at this hostel because of the rave reviews it seems to get. I dont understand why!? The location is good. The price is reasonable. But the rooms are nothing to write home about and what annoyed me most was the staff. Every time we asked for advice we always got given an answer which involved in partaking in... more
