Guest Reviews
- Marygiulio (8/5): - Wonderful location, nice and clean room and a wonderful "diva" cat to welcome you 😁
- Gavin (9/5): Lovely, friendly and great location - Great location Nothing
- Omar (7/5): - Location: Excellent. The metro station (M1) is only a few minutes away, and iconic landmarks such as the Acropolis of Athens, Ancient Agora of Athens, and the Acropolis Museum are all within walking distance. The area is quiet and pedestrian-friendly. It’s also very close to Monastiraki Square, with plenty of lovely rooftop bars offering stunning illuminated views of the Acropolis at night.
Breakfast: basic but enough options.
Price: good.
Friendly staff. The shower cubicle was quite old and didn’t close properly. Tea and coffee were provided in the room on the first day, but on the following days we had to go downstairs and ask for replenishments. The bed was also not very comfortable.
- İlknur (10/5): -
- Luis (6/5): Os quartos sem janelas são absolutamente ruidosos e faltam cuidados básicos no mobiliário - A localização é fantástica. Fiquei num piso subterrâneo. Eu sabia que não tinha janelas e eles avisam recorrentemente, não fui surpreendido por isso. O que não avisam é que é colado a uma despensa que é acedida pelo pessoal de madrugada, fazendo barulho constante, que tem um respirador direto para essa despensa por onde entra luz, que a WC não tem onde colocar as toalhas ou qualquer bolsa com as nossas coisas, que só tem uma mesa de cabeceira com um candeeiro cuja forma de desligar é apenas desligando da tomada. O ruído da recepção, com o telefone a tirar a horas tardias e o barulho da sala de refeições, aquando da colocação da loiça nas mesas para o pequeno-almoço, são outras fontes de descuido que desencorajam o regresso. Há uma despreocupação desconcertante com um quarto que tem uma desvantagem clara e comunicada, mas que soma desvantagens inesperadas, algumas bem simples de evitar.
- Barbara (10/5): - Απλά όμορφα καθαρά δωμάτια , ευγενικό προσωπικό , πολύ καλό πρωινό, καταπληκτική τοποθεσία! Όλα τέλεια θα το ξαναπροτιμήσουμε! Δεν έχω να αναφέρω κάτι αρνητικό.
- Adrienn (9/5): Kiváló helyen, kellemes környezetben, megfizethető áron elérhető szállás - Kitűnő lokáció, pazar panoráma, kedves személyzet, alapos takarítás., korrekt reggeli.
Nagyon örültünk, hogy a 3. emeletről remek panoráma nyílt az Acropolisra. A reggeli választéka lehetne kicsit bőségesebb...
- Sviatlana (8/5): -
- Lucy (2/5): - Asked for a double room, specifically emailed stating we would have to cancel if they didn’t have a double room, and they did not provide us with one upon check in.
- Beata (10/5): -
- rutherford (8/5): Location Location, tiny-ish room - Location Location Location Room definitely on the smaller side.
- AleV18 (9/5): - Estaba bien ubicado, muy cómodo y cerca de la Acropolis.
- Raphaël (8/5): Bon hôtel en plein centre-ville - La localisation à proximité de l’acropole et du centre historique. Un point de départ idéal pour les visites, les boutiques, les restaurants typiques Dommage de trouver des cheveux dans la douche
Un petit-déjeuner qui pourrait faire mieux (jus d’orange qui a certainement jamais vu d’orange)
- Romain (8/5): Séjour à Athenes - L'emplacement idéal pour visiter Athènes à pieds Le bruit de la rue et le petit déjeuner très léger.
- Daniele (7/5): -
- Besancon (8/5): -
- aleksandar (9/5): - Najbolja lokacija Nista
- Institut Escola (7/5): un hotel modest en un molt bon lloc amb un esmorzar molt millorable pel preu - l'esmorzaR Una mica pobre, el suc de taronja d'ampolla, no natural, les tovalloles es veien velles
- RAFAIL (9/5): -
- David (5/5): 3 días en un zulo. - El Personal es amable y tiene una ubicación muy muy buena. La habitación es de coña. Una habitación en un sótano sin ventanas ni apenas ventilación. Con un dos camas casi pegadas, sin espacio apenas para transitar y el urinario literalmente a un metro de la cama. 75 euros la noche dos personas? Es una completa locura.
- Renáta (8/5): -
- ענת (9/5): Will defently return for a longer stay and recommend to others - Breakfast was well presented and tasted good.
Coffee was good
A large variety. Pleasant staff
- Graciela Monica (9/5): - Excelente ubicac
Personal muy bueno No funcionba la caja de seguridad y tuve que ir a un tour con el dinero a cuestas
- ΓΙΩΡΓΟΣ (10/5): -
- Sergey (8/5): -
- CAGIL (8/5): - Location is so nice
- lucie (9/5): Je reviendrai - L emplacement
La gentillesse du personnel
La chambre famille très confortable -
- COLETTE (8/5): - Très bien situé au pied de l'Acropole, dans une rue animée et piétonne
Hotel simple, propre et pratique
- Nora S (7/5): 5 night stay - Clean hotel, great location. Breakfast was ok, it did what it needed to do. Loved the view from the hotel room. It was a little difficult to communicate with staff, except one of the receptionists due to the language barrier. But we managed, not a huge minus.
A preference thing to keep in mind: the beds are hard.
Also keep in mind if you're allergic to cats you may have a problem in the common area. Personally I loved the cats!
- Erol Teksoz (10/5): - Konum harika muhteşem süper olağanüstü Sevmediğim birşey yok
- Elvia Denisse (10/5): Excelente - Todo muy bien, ubicación, personal Todo me gusto
- KALLIOPI (7/5): -
- Vaishnavi (7/5): -
- Stella (9/5): Extremely convenient in central monastiraki perfect for a quick stay in Athens and excellent for the train to the airpor - Very well situated in the heart of monastiraki. I couldn’t get the cover off the jacuzzi and there were no instructions telling me how to. there were also very noisy air conditioning units in the space next to the yard.
- Jakob (10/5): Very good location near city center. - Very good location near the city Center. Feels very safe. Staff was friendly. Room was clean. The room could maybe use some renovation, but was still clean.
- Jane (4/5): Think twice! - Location Basement room - no windows; noisy bathroom venilation system that did not switch off
Breakfast was poor; cooked eggs were cold, despite being in a bainmarie; limited selection; machine coffee was bitter; cold food left out unprotected - not hygenic.
Unfriendly staff
- Lukasz (10/5): -
- Nimish (8/5): Good property for couple or single person - Our stay in Athens was pleasant overall and worked well for our trip.
The biggest advantage is the location—very close to the iconic Acropolis of Athens, making sightseeing convenient. There are plenty of restaurants nearby and even a supermarket within walking distance, which is a great plus for tourists and families.
The staff were very helpful, polite, and always ready to assist with any queries or support needed, which made the stay smooth and comfortable.
Overall, a good property mainly because of its excellent location and supportive staff. The only drawback was the room size. For families, especially with an extra bed for kids, space becomes quite limited and a bit cramped.
- David (6/5): - La vue
- Spathis (10/5): - The best Hotel in Athens....Thank you for everything
- Sasa (5/5): Room not as described – no real balcony, limited daylight, unsuitable for two adults - The room did not match the expectations based on the listing.
Although described as having a balcony, there was no usable balcony, only a door with a barrier, and the entire view was blocked by a fixed awning, which significantly limited natural daylight and completely prevented any view of the sky.
As a result, the room felt dark and enclosed, which was not clearly communicated in the description.
Additionally, the bed was not suitable for two adults, despite the reservation being made for two people. The size and setup did not meet reasonable comfort standards for two adult guests.
I documented these issues with photo and video evidence and shared them with both the property and Booking.com. Despite multiple attempts to resolve the matter, including providing medical documentation explaining why one guest could not travel, no compensation or adjustment was offered.
Overall, the experience did not reflect the expectations set by the listing, and I would recommend future guests to carefully verify the exact room conditions before booking.
- Lis (6/5): -
- Sebastian Vicente (10/5): Excelente - Tiene unas vistas increibles a la Acropolis, esta cerca de una estacion de metro y ademas a unos 10 min a pie esta Little Kook.. Muy buena experiencia El desayuno 10 euros, completo pero se acaba el pan muy rapido y cuando pregunte si tenian mas me dijeron que ya se les acabado. Pero muy bueno
- Jakub (10/5): -
- Cretu (8/5): Locatie buna - Locatia - superba, in centru, langa Acropole, pe strada pietonala Camera de 3 persoane era mica rau, o dubla cu pat suplimentar practic, umeazeala din camera, tencuiala cazuta de pe pereti
- Ludovic (9/5): -
- Kielar-Ostrowski (8/5): - Bardzo miła i pomocna obsługa. Obfite śniadania.
Świetna lokalizacja. Blisko do zwiedzania i na zakupy oraz resteuracji Łazienka

- Gang (10/5): -
- linda (8/5): - Staff gentile e cordiale. Posizione tranquilla e ottima. Super disponibile, tutte le volte che avevamo bisogno di un taxi, ci pensavano loro. Stanza un po' piccola, probabilmente era da due invece noi eravamo in tre. Colazione gluten free (c'era solo pane da toast freddo. No brioches, no biscotti, no cereali).
- Ourania Tzoraki (10/5): - Very tasty breakfast. Excellent coffee, service and everything clean. The staff in the reception are amazing people. We had nice discussions with them. Thanks to mr Iordanis for the nice talk and tips.
- Sarang Sanjay (8/5): -
- Elisa (9/5): -
- Ourania Tzoraki (10/5): - Very friendly personnel.
- Halil Can (8/5): F/p oteli - Yeri çok merkezi, bunun ufak bir yan etkisi var, 7/24 dışarıdan gürültü geliyor
- MARÍA DE LA PEÑA (9/5): - Excepcional ubicación. Trato estupendo. Y repetimos a la vuelta del viaje. Genial
- Tibor (9/5): -
- Tracey (9/5): - The location is nice and convenient. Room was small but clean and had all the items we requated. Rooms come with a nice sized balcony. We also liked the breakfast, ecent variety. The rooms are served with lift. We needed a late check out and they accomodated us. The only thing was the Internet connection was not stable, but if from EU you can use the plan fron your country.. The extra folding bed was not very comftable. The ceiling rope light was not working well.
- Julia (9/5): Excellent location and nice view to Akropolis - Breakfast was a Greek breakfast and very good.
- Janet Blaser (10/5): Peaceful, in the heart of ancient Athens, wonderful people. - Best location. Friendly and helpful staff.
- Mayur (8/5): Fabulous! - A fantastic hotel in Athens with elegant ambience, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere that made our stay truly enjoyable! Room size is compact and very less space.
- Wallace (10/5): -
- Laurence (4/5): A éviter - Bien situé. Hotel bruyant.
Attention lorsque vous choisissez votre chambre dans cet hôtel, car vous risquez d'avoir la formule dite "économique" où vous vous retrouver au sous sol sans fenêtre. Pourtant au même prix que d'autres hôtels de meilleur qualité.
Donc expérience désagréable avec bruit de ventilation permanent, odeur de cuisine, deco et équipements vieillots.
- Erhan (7/5): - Konumu gayet iyi, tren veya metro ile ulaşım kolay Otelde ses izolasyonu biraz zayıf odalar gürültülü, temizliğe biraz daha özen gösterilebilir
- Chusi (8/5): - La ubicacion La habitación era muy muy pequeña.
- MARIO (10/5): - Uno dei grandi punti di forza dell'hotel è
sicuramente la posizione: centrale e comodissima, permette di raggiungere tutto a piedi in 7-10 minuti. Inoltre, la fermata della metro si trova a soli 2 minuti, rendendo semplici sia gli spostamenti in città sia il collegamento con l'aeroporto. La cabina doccia con il telo , mi fa schifo...
- Marco (8/5): - Ottima posizione
- Stephen (10/5): -
- Jessica (8/5): Posizione perfetta, ci ritornerei. Colazione 7/10 - Posizione ottima per tutte le attrazioni da visitare. Tutto raggiungibile a piedi. Fermata metro a 100m. Bagni piccolissimi, doccia con tendina che fa uscire l’acqua. Lavandino molto piccolo.
- Frantisek (9/5): Super... polecam z czystym sumieniem. - Śniadanie bardzo dobre i bardzo dużo potraw do wyboru. No i do tego soki, herbata, kawa. Na pewno każdy sobie wybierze coś dla siebie. Łazienka jest mała i kabina prysznicowa bez drzwi w tym przypadku nie jest dobrym rozwiązaniem.
- Chantal (10/5): - très bon accueil et idéalement placé pour visiter l'Acropole et les sites environnants.
- ΚΩΝΣΤΑΝΤΙΝΟΣ (8/5): -
- Stela (7/5): Personal y desayuno bueno pero camas incómodas. - El desayuno nos gustó y el personal muy amable. La situación del hotel era muy buena. La habitación era pequeña para tres adultos y la cama supletoria era muy incómoda, los colchones estaban en mal estado y sucios. Lo dijimos en recepción pero no nos hicieron caso.
- Manoshvili (8/5): -
- Patrick (9/5): - Nous venons 3 ou 4 fois dans cet hôtel. Nous aimons principalement l'emplacement le calme, le personnel et le petit déjeuner. Toutes les chambres ne se valent pas.
- Eric (9/5): - centraal gelegen bij the places to be niets
- CAROB MILL FACTORY (10/5): Great - Great place and location
- Karima (9/5): Agréable et très bien situé - L'emplacement de l'hôtel est top à quelques minutes de marche de l'Acropole de l'Agora et de la prison de Socrate.
Nombreux restaurants et nombreuses boutiques tout autour.
Marchands de bijoux en bas de l'hôtel et tout au long de la rue jusqu'à la station de métro Thissio et de la rue commerçante.
Personnel serviable et souriant.
Balcon avec vu sur la rue passante qui fait ressortir l'atmosphère de la ville.
Petite déjeuner basique qui n'a pas changé en 3 jours. Nous étions 3 et le lit d'appoint n'était pas des plus confortables!
Il faudrait penser à avoir des matelas plus épais pour un meilleur confort.
Le bruit, on entend les voisins discuter et rire et quand c'est à 2h du matin ce n'est pas l'idéal.
La lumière reste allumée toute la nuit dans les balcons. Si vous préférez dormir dans le noir total, pensez à vous munir d'un masque pour les yeux.
