Guest Reviews
- H4707FEjohnw (10/5): A very nice place - We were invited to a wedding at Lake Vouliagmeni and were looking for a hotel nearby and found Athenian Riviera Hotel & Suites. The location was perfect for transportation and walking to local beaches. A short drive or cab ride could get you to restaurants, bars and shopping. -The hotel staff was welcoming and helpful. Neofytos was at the reception desk and provided much information about the area and made several recommendations on thing to do and what type of deserts should be had while in Greece (delicious stuff). The staff was also able to secure a rental wheelchair for one of the people traveling with us. It was delivered and returned in the hotel. -The rooms were spacious and clean with a balcony with chairs and a table, the bathrooms were modern and had walk-in showers. -The breakfast buffet had many items to choose from. All of the food was well prepared and fresh including eggs, toast, vegetables, various meats, nuts, cereals, yogurts and other items. The coffee at the bar which is additional charge is far better than the coffee included with the buffet. - The hotel restaurant had some great meal choices of fish, pasta and meat. Our server Christina made several excellent recommendations and the drinks prepared at the bar were very good. - The hotel has comfortable outdoor seating on a patio and an inviting pool I would highly recommend this hotel if you were planning on visiting the area.
- Kerenmeir (8/5): Great location and very comfortable rooms - The hotel is wonderfully located right next to the beach with many restaurants nearby and the marina not far. The rooms are clean and very comfortable. Spacious family room. The only thing I would recommend is offering complimentary mineral water in the rooms
- mariapJ5720GL (10/5): Lovely stay. Perfect for our wedding party to stay from 25th June 2026 - Sunday 28th June 2026. We cannot wait. - We came to visit in may 2025. To view the hotel for our wedding in June 2026. We will be hosting a wedding in Athens late June 2026. We have booked 30 rooms. I wished I booked all 47 rooms. The hotel is perfect for your wedding guests, with a beauty salon downstairs. The rooms are clean, and the staff are soooo kind and always helpful! We cannot wait to stay here with our wedding party!
- Sarah (10/5): - The staff were superb. Special mention about Christina and the gentleman on reception morning of 12 October (sorry didn’t get his name), both were excellent, knowledgable, professional, courteous and nothing was too much trouble. The staff at the hotel are the greatest asset. One suggestion - drawer(s) are needed in the rooms. Thank you for a lovely stay.
- Steven (10/5): - Great property - super comfortable and convenient. Awesome daily breakfast buffet. Super friendly - great room.
- Anthony (10/5): - great staff, clean and spacious. Great food.
- Kegan (6/5): - Overpriced for what we got. Our room was small and the bathroom was tiny. We complained and they did move us to a larger room with more space. They charged us for things we never purchased like coffees. The room was clean and modern overall and staff were friendly. Overall, wouldn’t recommend this hotel
- Danijela (10/5): - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an amazing stay at the Athenian Riviera Hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and cared for — always smiling and ready to help with anything we needed. Our room was spotless, spacious, and beautifully decorated, with a comfortable bed and a balcony that opened to stunning views. Breakfast was excellent every morning, with a great variety of fresh, high-quality food. The pool area was clean and relaxing, perfect for unwinding after exploring the city and nearby beaches. The location is ideal — peaceful yet close enough to restaurants, cafes, and the sea. What really stood out to us was the attention to detail and the warm hospitality. Everything felt personal and genuine, making the whole experience memorable. We would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Athens or the Riviera area — we can’t wait to come back!
- drlb49 (10/5): What a find! - The Athenian Riviera is a wonderful, small to medium size hotel with all the comforts and features of a much larger hotel. The rooms there are good-sized, with very nice bathrooms. Our room also came with a very large, private balcony/deck. The rooms, lobby, restaurant & bar, and pool patio were all immaculate. This nice, quiet hotel is tucked-away in a very safe, upscale neighborhood of condos, homes, and a few other similar hotels. It is an easy 2 or 3 blocks walk to Vouliagmeni Beach. If you want to explore a bit. there is a bus stop only a block away. You can ride the bus all along the "Riviera" coast or take it back up to Athens. (Taxis are readily available as well.) The best kept secret has got to be their restaurant. The best ever! The breakfast buffet had something for everyone. We could have eaten there three times a day. From bacon, eggs, yogurt, lunch meats, breads, olives and other local fruits, to fresh juices and tasty pastries, they offered it all. The lunch and dinner menus, although not extensive, had plenty to choose from. We just wish we could have tried it all! Truly fine Greek cuisine and everything done to perfection. (I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!) Finally, I must say that the entire staff was amazing! Everyone there went out of their way to ensure our comfort, pleasure and satisfaction. (They all speak English, too.) They made us feel like guests of honor. Anything you want or need, just ask. We were very well cared for and pampered. Can't wait to get back there! Tip: If traveling there by taxi (be it from the airport, the cruise ship docks in Piraeus, downtown Athens, or wherever, do take advantage of the hotel's taxi booking service. It is fee-free and they have very good, contracted set rates with the taxis. This is by far the easiest and stress-free way to taxi there.
- john (8/5): - Location
- Andrea (8/5): - Great location. Service. Walking distance to beach, shops and restaurants.
- anastasiadNY (10/5): Five Star staff! - This hotel is officially only a four star but they have five star staff! From the front desk to the wait staff, they were very attentive and friendly. The front desk staff are like concierge’s, taking care of all appointments. They were able to facilitate a couple of last minute requests for manicure and pedicure and make up and hair. Massage was really good in a nice cozy space downstairs. The rooms were clean and large. The pool was really nice and we loved longing around the pool in the quiet neighborhood in Vouliagmeni. Great and abundant breakfast, and very good food at lunch time too. Highly recommended!
- SAMUEL (10/5): - The guy that took my luggage to the room extremely nice.
- russell (10/5): - Nice and clean
- Sandra (10/5): - Absolutely wonderful hotel, look no further and book. Location is short, pleasant walk to the beach and the property is maintained and laid out perfectly. The staff are so kind and helpful, I’ve only experienced similar hospitality in Switzerland.
- robinq2709 (10/5): - Amazing experience. Loved it. Perfect location, very close to everything. Room very clean and staff perfect to tell you what to do in Athens and where to go. Highly recommended
- karim (8/5): - Great place to stay if your in town for a few days and want to stay away from city center. It’s a short walk from the beach club attached to the four seasons which is as good as any in the chill Greek islands.
- Dimitri (10/5): - Fantastic place to stay!
- Dorothy (10/5): - The staff was most attentive and helpful, and the hotel was spotlessly clean. The food and drinks were fantastic. The lobby was a joy, and the breakfast was the perfect way to start the day!
- martina (10/5): - Beautiful hotel and great pool. Excellent dining options and quick walk to hot springs!
- Madeline (4/5): - This was a disappointing hotel. There was construction going on across the hotel and while sitting outside to eat. You saw work men drilling etc..The pool was tiny not appealing at all. The complimentary breakfast was nothing to talk about ordinary. They were low on fruit and you needed to ask them can you put out more fruit please. The hotel room was noisy. The bathroom door kept hitting when you go in and out if it. The shower that I had in my room was the best part.
- G3963LFalexl (10/5): Excellent little hotel! - Excellent little hotel! Would stay again for sure. Neo and Giannis were very hospitable and friendly! Location is excellent and very close to shopping, restaurants, and the lovely beaches. Thank you!!
- Tina (8/5): - Good 4 star hotel with breakfast.
- sebnemkunt (8/5): Summer in Voulagmeni - Nice location walking distance major and famous beaches and restaurants very attentive staff spacious rooms a bit old fashioned though very nice common area fast room service have not tried the pool but nice and popular among guests 5 minutes taxi drive to Gylifada 25 minutes to airport
- KimberleyB472 (10/5): A beautiful stay - A fantastic place to stay! A beautiful location with the beach, the lake and many great restaurants in walking distance. The staff here are also caring, friendly and helpful! A particular mention of Giannis, Marilyn, and all the reception team, bar staff and breakfast team and of course housekeeping. We felt so at home and welcomed. While we didn’t get everyone’s name to thank, we want to acknowledge everyone who made our stay so special. We would love to come back!
- 85katarinab (10/5): Wonderful stay - The staff was incredible and nice during our stay. It was clean rooms and good space also. The breakfast and dinner at the hotel was lovely. The service was excellent and was helpful with information and warm. Give the best recommendatioms.
- Hannah (6/5): - In advance of our stay, the hotel was extremely helpful regarding a taxi strike occurring whilst we were in Athens. Upon arrival reception were friendly and helpful and we were offered a welcome drink. The room was lovely with a nice big balcony everything is clean and tidy. The bed was a little hard and we struggled to sleep due to that and loud air conditioning and automatic lights on the balcony which we couldn’t turn off. The pool area is lovely. However, the pool is extremely small. It is only for a dipped cool off! It is also in an area where a lot of development is occurring so opposite is a building site that has not yet been completed. This did not disturb our day, but I can imagine it may have disturbed others if they were working during the day. Our rate included breakfast however we had an early flight so they offered us a breakfast box which we appreciated. However, it was a dry, white bread, cheese, and ham sandwich, and apple and a juice carton, which was not reflective of the beautiful products that were on show in the breakfast area. It was very close to local eateries and only a 20 minute walk to the lake and for one night it suited our needs. I would not stay there again, however, due to the few points that I have mentioned.
- anthonyeY9627JK (10/5): Amazing stay - Amazing service and location, close to the beaches and Giannis on the reception was really helpful and recommended the best restaurants and places. The room was spacious and the general atmosphere is nice I recommend that hotel and we can’t wait to get back
- agkiely (4/5): Faulty Towers experience - We stayed at this hotel for two nights in May. The staff were very friendly and did their best but there are some fundamental problems with the hotel. The main issue is how thin the walls are. You can hear EVERYTHING that goes on in the rooms next door and in the corridor. You can hear them go to the toilet, you can hear their phone ring, you can hear them boil the kettle for a cup of tea, you can hear every open and close of a door nearby. This is disconcerting during the day and at night just downright unacceptable. Do not use this hotel if you would like to laze by the pool. As others have mentioned it is the size of a postage stamp but it is also situated at the front of the hotel, opposite the building site, on the road and in the car park! The strangest place ever to locate a pool, I do wonder if anyone has ever swum or sat next to this tiny plunge pool! The whole experience reminded me of stay at Faulty Towers. I will definitely not be back!
- kostasf311 (10/5): Unforgettable experience - Staff was amazing! Very kind and helpful. The location of the hotel is 10/10. Most definitely coming back. Would absolutely recommend! Had a wonderful time staying at the ATHENIAN RIVIERA!!!(breakfast was also really good as well as the room)
- Tour31400810250 (10/5): Clean and frienly place, who saved our holiday - Very great hotel, clean and friendly. Giannis the best receptionist ever. Breakfast is more then enough. The bar is also good. I was with my family, the beach are very close to to the hotel, everything was very good. This hotel is perfect in every aspect
- Verified traveler (8/5): Vouliagmeni weekend - Nice location Good breakfast Good service Uncomfortable mattresses Smell of cigarette smoke all over the hotel
- Alma (10/5): - Vouliagmeni is an amazing area. The hotel is located on a few blocks away from the city center with many options to dine. We loved it
- Carmen A (10/5): - Staff is wonderful
- anchormanbadman (10/5): Amazing Value!! - Great Value! Staff very friendly and happy to help. Great sized rooms. Comfy soft beds and HUGE balcony. Really happy I chose to stay here. Supermarket round the corner if anything is required. Nice bar. Amazing price!! With breakfast too. Would stay here again
- Maryanne (10/5): - The property and staff were lovely, thank you.
- Jimmybloke (10/5): Lovely hotel - Great hotel came here twice first time to view our wedding venue and second time for the wedding with all our friends and family.hotel was perfect for us all nice little pool that doesn't get to busy very close to the beach and the restaurants good breakfast served and nice mythos beer on draft.vouligameni now has a special place in our hearts so we will be back soon and will stay in this hotel again
- Jessica (10/5): - Great property. Spacious room for our family
- Gus (10/5): - Very clean and safe. The beds are amazing
- Elias (10/5): Vouliagmeni stay - Excellent as always in this hotel
- Elias (10/5): Vouliagmeni stay - Amazing time in a perfect place
- Matt (10/5): - We were delighted to stay at the Athenian riviera hotel. The staff and property were top quality, but the location is what stood out most. We were able to walk to the beach as well as a ton of great restaurants and really enjoy the neighborhood. Whether in season or out this is a great place to stay!
- Liane (8/5): - Staff was very nice and helpful. Rooms were clean.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Good Stay with Some Issues - Overall enjoyed our one night stay at this property. Amazing shower, clean room with a large patio and delicious full breakfast included in our stay and location close to the beach are what makes it worth it. The issues are as follow: - Thin walls, we could hear late nite conversation in the next room that made it hard to sleep - The bed in our room had really visible wear and tear - The tea kettle and other appliances are so far from the nearest outlet we had to boil water for tea by placing the kettle on the floor so it reached the power outlet. These are the little things that should be improved in a hotel of this class.
- Chris (8/5): - Enjoyed a three night stay and there are lots of beaches and restaurants a 10-15 walk away. Make sure you spend a day at the nearby lake. The best thing about this hotel was the staff. All so friendly and helpful. A special thank you to Marlyn for making us few so welcome.
- Chris (10/5): - Great service from staff
- Emrah (10/5): - The staffs are very nice and attentive. rooms are big and very comfortable
- Elias (10/5): - All was perfect
- B4102CPabigailb (10/5): Great Experience - My family and I stayed in a deluxe family suite, which had two bedrooms with an enormous private patio. The hotel staff were extremely helpful, and were kind enough to let us check in early when we had to check out of our other hotel. Breakfast was amazing, and the Voliagmeni area (and beach!) was extremely beautiful.
- JudithCharmers123 (8/5): Nice hotel near the sea - This is a small but nice hotel. The bedrooms are nice and comfortable and the bathrooms are well equipped. Location wise, its a good 30 mins drive from Athens and the airport and there isn't a lot around the local area, so you need to work out why you are staying here - for me, it was an event at the lovely but very expensive Four Seasons, a 15 minute walk away. The staff were all friendly and the breakfast was ok, not wonderful but ok. There isn't a lot of choice due to it being a small hotel. The swimming pool is tiny - its a 2 strokes and you are at the other end pool. The is no other forms of entertainment. The elephant in the room with this hotel currently is the building work that is taking place next door. It seems to have been going on for a while and doesn't look like it will be finished until possibly into 2025. The noise wont disturb you at night and I couldn't hear it from my room, but you can hear it at breakfast. Overall its a decent hotel. Would have been nice to have 1 TV channel in English, but the hotel is well decorated.
- Estella (10/5): Amazing hotel experience - The staff was friendly and courteous. The room was clean and spacious. The food was great. I wouldn't change a thing.
- katesA5879LJ (2/5): Very poor experience, very poor customer service - do not stay here! - I had a bad experience at this hotel, for a number of reasons. My booking was for 2 nights but after my experience the first night I could not stay there for a second night. I therefore requested a refund on the second night but the hotel refused to give one. I left anyway as I could not stay there, and have lost €250. (€250/night in October is in any case not a price this hotel can justify.) The issues I had were: 1. There is ongoing, very noisy building work across the road, which is extremely loud and was not stated anywhere in the hotel info. 2. The walls were so thin that I could hear the guests in the room next door but one, and down the corridor. This is not the quality of a four star hotel. 3. There were 2 powercuts during my 1 day's stay: a power cut on the afternoon that I arrived, and one early the following morning, representing ca 5 hours in total (of my 20 hour reservation) without power. That meant the lift didn't work, so I had to stumble 2 floors downstairs to breakfast with a fractured foot in the semi-darkness. There was no light in the room, no AC, no power supply and a limited breakfast. 4. As there was no coffee at breakfast they served it from water heated by gas instead - it was completely undrinkable. This is a 4* hotel - how is it possible that the staff cannot make coffee! At breakfast we were sitting outside, bombarded by the sound of the building work from the building across the road while there was no power in the hotel - but the builders across the road apparently had no such power issue. 5. The hotel say that the powercut was external, affecting the whole area and out of their control, and that they would therefore not refund me my second night on that basis. If it was out of their control then a) how were the builders across the road ok and b) how could the hotel guarantee that it would not happen for a third day running? Trying to move around in the dark with a fractured foot is extremely dangerous. Staying in a room without AC when it is still very hot, is very unpleasant. Not being able to charge devices when I need to work is unacceptable. I did not request any refund on the night that I actually stayed at the hotel, despite the huge inconvenience. I simply requested to check out at the normal time, not to stay the second night I had booked, as I did not want to risk a repeat of the above, and for a refund of that second night. The hotel have refused to give it. I checked out anyway as I could not stay there and have lost €250.
- Georgia (10/5): Great Value - We were visiting for a family wedding and this was a perfect location for 2 nights. The hotel is located close to the beach and within walking distance to some lovely restaurants. The rooms are spacious and ours had a lovely large balcony. The service was very friendly and helpful.
- Cripplegirl (8/5): Wheelchair access at The Athenian Riviera - We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights. The accessible room was large and has two private garden areas which was an unexpected luxury. There is a lot of furniture in the room that we had to move to enable access to the bed and to get around. The bathroom was a good size but there was no shower chair. The only seat the hotel could provide was a garden chair which worked but wasn't ideal. As with wet rooms the bathroom flooded significantly when the shower was used creating a slip hazard. The hotel itself is quite small so there weren't many other areas to navigate. The ground floor was all accessible. Staff were all delightful and super helpful. They were great at helping me in and out of taxis.
- Megan (10/5): - Great service
- malcolm (10/5): - It was ok
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We only stayed one night and chose this location because we wanted to visit Lake Vouliagmeni before an early flight the next day. The location was peaceful and walkable to the lake. The staff were super helpful in arranging an early morning taxi for us at a fair price. We didn't want to get out of bed in the morning because we were so comfortable. The shower was excellent too! I wish we could have stayed longer and would highly recommend this hotel to others!
- William (8/5): - Easy beach hotel to stay at. Near some good walking areas.
- Fotios (10/5): - 10/10 customer service. Fantastic people. Very clean hotel. Fantastic room. Small shower not for wide shoulders.
- Bassem (8/5): - Overall good experience but it is not unacceptable to charge 4 EUR just to get cutlery in the room in a 4 star hotel
- Jonathon (10/5): - Great staff, very accommodating, rooms are awesome and the breakfast is everyday was outstanding.
- Discover40642763059 (4/5): Building site. - Hotel has a building site 5 metres away. Noise was going all day. Nice people but cannot be a $300 euro hotel when it is a building site. Wrote a review and found it was taken down. There is ongoing construction at this hotel which they say is intermittent. Hotel should mention on their site. Very disappointed.
- Ross (10/5): - All good with just a couple of issues namely omelette station at breakfast and better toiletries in room. Will definitely book again
- Mthatsveryfussy (6/5): Lovely Hotel but Beware Building Work - The Hotel itself was very nice, excellent kind Staff, very nice room ,lovely requested king size bed, nice big bathroom ,lovely shower and very clean throughout. I was surprised to find that the beach was not as stated " a few steps away" but a good 5/6 min walk away, also it costs €15 to go onto the beach and get an umbrella and sunbed. No view of the sea itself from where I could see maybe from the 4th floor. The breakfast was outstandingly good lots of choice loads of fruit ,juices, cooked and cold choices. My problem and consequently low rating was the Pool area not as stated and hoped for an "oasis of tranquility " but right next door to a working building site complete with jack hammers ,concrete mixers, dust and general shouting builder to builder. This was from 08.00 till 15.00 every week day, on one day even past the legal time. Admittedly the hotel did try to stop this unsuccessfully. Whilst I do understand this is completely out of the Hotels control I would suggest that customers be advised of this AND can then choose to find elsewhere to have a peaceful holiday. Upon discussion with the Management some of our party were compensated financially whilst others were offered vouchers to return to the same hotel . However just to say it appeared that the foundations are only just being laid so who knows when this building work will end. I think that the building work should be declared on the description and a good look at the Tariff charged to reflect the inconvenience this is not a cheap hotel to holiday in. I have complained to management and an apology was offered along with a voucher for 3 free nights however I shall not be returning. The area is very central but I advise a few miles up the coast either side much nicer restaurants and beautiful beaches. I hope this review is helpful. Unfortunately the photos that I took were all video and cannot download to this site.
- Dr Moses (10/5): - Excellent stay. Great atmosphere and staff and food
- alyne (10/5): - Conveniently located walking distance to tons of restaurants , lake and beach. No parking issues because side lot is empty .
- 0halan (10/5): Reliable and organized for group events - The hotel was chosen for our daughter's wedding guests. The hotel reservation manager Esther was very helpful, efficient, responsive and reliable. She and the reception staff were very friendly and did their best to make sure everyone was comfortable. The rooms are spacious with big balconies and the location is excellent.
- vic (10/5): - Efficient check in with friendly staff. Convenient location. I would recommend this hotel.
- Patricia (10/5): - Bathroom is ridiculously small!
- Michelle (10/5): - I stayed in this hotel for my daughter’s wedding on Wednesday. The wedding venue was just a short taxi ride from the hotel. I stayed on a bed and breakfast basis. The room was nice and clean with nice bed and the pillows were good not soft and the bedding was cotton, Breskfast was good and food was replenished There is also a Spa onsite I had one and it was very relaxing, Hotel is close to a sandy beach.
- mireille (6/5): - There was construction right across from the pool . Was not relaxing at all
- vassilios (10/5): - Very clean, and comfortable rooms. Excellent service great staff.
- Mary (10/5): - The staff were amazing especially Margarita. Modem and very comfortable and close to the beach, bars and restaurant.
- Aaron (8/5): - Great location, but they had IT issues that were unresolved during our stay.
- Carrie (8/5): - Great location.
- Rodwige Camille (10/5): - The hotel staff were very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast staff were prompt with replenishing food and gave a last warning to tables before closing at 10:30. The food was decent, it was included. The coffee was really good. Lots of fun things to do within 10-15 min walking distance. The hop on/hop off bus has a stop near the beach. You can take the purple line and transfer to the red or other lines to see many popular sites. The restaurants along the beaches were clean, the food was generous and authentic and very tasty! Ubers/taxis were plentiful, but may have taken up to an hour during peak times and especially on weekends. It’s better to book a day or two in advance for a major event (like a wedding) or to travel to the airport to ensure you have transportation. A 7-min taxi to our wedding event at Island Art & Taste was $4-5 in Euros. We always tipped generously either on or off the app. Some drivers were not that fluent in English, but many attempted to try their best. One used a translator app on his phone which made for a better ride and in communicating our wishes. Sam “Stamatis” was the best, who gave us a tour of the city from the beach whereas some just played music. He also lives in NJ years ago. The housekeeping staff were very friendly and accommodating. There is an iron room, but no iron in each individual room, so plan accordingly. We didn’t use the pool, but it was open. We had a corner 2 bedroom unit so our balcony wrapped around the corner!
- Stephen (8/5): - We had four nights at the hotel and found the staff to be really nice and helpful We are at the restaurant on severally occasions and enjoyed the food every time The only complaint I have is about our rooms size and outlook we had room 12 which never had much in the way of natural light so we needed the lights on all the time and the room itself was very cramped the bed on the other hand was excellent We would stay there again as long as it was not one of the ground floor rooms
- Bernadette (10/5): - Every staff member whom we met or simply encountered was friendly, professional and always willing to help. The included breakfast was fresh and plentiful with quite a variety of food and drink. We also highly recommend the restaurant for a wonderful lunch or dinner. Beaches, grocery store, ATM as well as a large "kiosk" well stocked with snacks, cold drinks, reading material and beach items were a 10 minute stroll away. The hotel and grounds were very clean and well-maintained. Other family members also stayed at the Athenian Riviera. We gathered for drinks or just conversation on the patio and never felt rushed too leave. Loved our stay!
- Karen (10/5): - All of the staff were attentive and friendly, and genuinely helpful. The food in the dining room was excellent.
- Jocelyn (10/5): Beautiful hotel., - We got the family suite with jacuzzi. We enjoyed the breakfast and dinner at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and pretty. I only wished there were a thicker blanket to sleep when the AC was on. The balcony was enormous. Wasn’t sure if it was ok to play soccer. We had a nice view of the beach.
- Patrick (10/5): - Had a good stay here, but the highlight was Alex, who works the front desk was very helpful in making sure I got my bag which I left by accident at the hotel (I was that relaxed!). Alex was so helpful and totally made something that could have been stressful completely ok!. Thank you, Alex. I appreciate it deeply.
- Tina (4/5): - Definitely overrated on your site. Property is not a 4 star by any means. Would never go back and would not recommend it.
- Andri (10/5): - Great location and lovely staff. Good size rooms and lovely breakfast. The pool area could be bigger but otherwise perfect for our short stay.
- John (2/5): - Outdoor hot tub which was the basis of this rental had zero hot water. This defeated the whole reason for the extra cost of the room
- Emiko (10/5): - Off the beaten path, it is in a quiet neighborhood in the coastal area about 30 minutes south of Athens city. Clean, modern and reasonably priced, it is possibly the best bargain you'll encounter during your visit to this part of Greece. There are beaches nearby and the hotel does have a pool. The restaurant and bar serve good food and drink and my favorite was definitely the mushroom risotto! I had it two nights in a row for dinner!
- Jan (10/5): - Missed a flight and needed a quick place to stay. Good price for a nice hotel. Not super close but not as far as Athens city center hotel.
- Sofia Anna (10/5): - Will definitely be staying there again. The staff was amazing. Rooms were stunning.
- Barbara (10/5): - Our spacious corner room with enormous furnished veranda was great, but the staff was our favorite highlight of this hotel. Each one of them was helpful, polite, knowledgeable and accommodated every need and desire.
- Maissa (10/5): Excellent hotel, amazing service - We stayed there for 5 nights and had a very decent sized room. The staff was super friendly and nice, service was great. We had to work a bit from the lobby area, wifi was super good. It was also easy to find parking slots.
- Olga (10/5): - This is our second time at the Athenian Riviera. We love it for the convenience of the location - the beach is walking distance as are our favorite restaurants. If you are looking for a reasonably priced, modern hotel, this is your best option in Vouliagmeni. The staff are professional and attentive.
- Thierry (10/5): - Amazing and cute! Great staff
- curtis l (10/5): - we visited greece for the first time and stayed at this hotel. WOW ! elegant, and classy yet unpretentious with the right level of charm and "quaintness". we loved this hotel. it was in a very quiet calm neighborhood within easy walking distance to the beach. it is south of athens and we would get an uber to the nearest metro so that we could ride it to the acropolis. the staff went out of their way to be helpful. breakfast each morning was hearty ! if i had one criticism it would be that the room had two twin beds stuck together to make a larger bed and that was a little awkward during snuggle time. but this seems to be standard in europe so i'm not going to complain. you can bet we will stay here the next time we visit greece, no doubt about that !
- John (10/5): Five stars - This was one of the best hotels I've stayed at, and all at an incredible price 👏 great staff, helpful frontdesk thank you 😊
- NIKI (10/5): - Great stuff, excellent breakfast buffet, nice bar. Location super nice, by the beach, dining options. Easy parking.
- Elias (10/5): A memorable stay - Really nice hotel, very friendly and helpful staff and very clean in all areas. Conveniently located to the restaurants and beaches. Great place to do hiking.
- Ron (8/5): Nice and cozy. - The room was very big and cozy. The hotel staff were very friendly. But the breakfast need to be improved. Overall it was ok.
- Asad (10/5): - Clean and attentive staff!
- Juan (10/5): - Good stay
- Linda (10/5): - Friendly receptionist. Helpful suggesting places to eat in the area and places to walk to. Very clean. 20-25 min to the airport. Great place to stay if you’re flying out of Athens
- Verified traveler (8/5): Lovely Stay & Staff - Nice hotel, spacious family rooms with great balconies. Staff were lovely and pleasant. Only let down was the food - wasn’t great.
