This hotel was part of our Christmas trip to Greece with my two daughters, and what I loved most was the rooftop bar and restaurant. Sitting there in the evening, enjoying a drink with the Acropolis in the distance, was truly delightful. Plus, upon arrival, we each received a welcome drink (non-alcoholic beverages were also an option), and the hotel offers great value for money.

I was happy that we were able to check in earlier than 3pm. Location was excellent because it's located in the middle of Monasteraki and Syntagma. Surrounded by varieties of restaurants and shopping areas.

TRGuest User
Hotel is new, good breakfast and service at front desk and car parking vale. Rooms are clean  Executive lounge is nice but can be improved at  varieties of snacks and free drinks We paid for Acropolis view room but no room sees the Acropolis actually; this was very disappointing when we paid more for this. If you go to the edge of balcony and lean it is possible to see a piece of it (another building  İs the obstacle between the view and rooms shouldn’t sold with this statement at all) Rooftop restaurant and pool have a perfect view but pool is very small and couldn’t even find a sunbed to rest; was too busy and hot. Location is very central but Athens has a big issue of security at some streets and it was not nice to feel unsafe.

Service: The staff I encountered were all quite good. The younger ones had good English, and the older ones were friendly and smiled warmly. 5/5 stars. Cleanliness: Very clean. There was a Cameroonian lady who spoke French, which was a plus! The room and bathroom were well-maintained and the air was fresh. Environment: I stayed in a 6-bed mixed dorm. When there were a lot of guys, the snoring was constant, sometimes even a duet! On the last of my three nights, there were three girls, which was better. The beds were sturdy with good privacy curtains. As for roommates, it's really a matter of luck! But it's good value for money, and it's only a 5-minute walk to the subway, so transportation is convenient. 😂

Good location a fair distance away from the very crowded city center and tourist attractions, between 2 metro stations with plenty of food options. Not a good location if traveling by car due to lack of parking. Checking in/out was a simple process and the rooms are spacious with many amenities. Only missing washing machines, laundry has to be done at nearby laundromats.

The hotel is in a great location, very close to the subway station, and there are many restaurants and bars around, but it is just quiet in the bustling city. The room is very clean, with everything you need, and good soundproofing. The breakfast is rich, and all kinds of pies are my favorite. The service staff are very warm and friendly. A very satisfying accommodation experience!

The room is located in a relatively quiet and safe area. It's quite spacious, clean, and comfortable. It's not far from Syntagma Square, and you can easily get there by walking or public transport. You can also take a pleasant walk to the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the Acropolis. This hotel offers great value for money, and the breakfast is pretty good too.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The staff were friendly and provided excellent service throughout my visit. The room was clean and comfortable and the location was convenient. Every sightseeing and location was around the corner.The only small downside was that the shower area was a bit narrow. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would happily recommend this hotel.

Lovely little hotel with helpful staff. The train station is across the road from the hotel, which is very handy. The room was spacious enough for me. It got cleaned most days. The hotel is about a 25-30 minute walk to the main attractions (or you can just get on a train). I just googled places and walked everywhere. Never felt in danger walking around (that includes night time, too). There are a couple of mini supermarkets around the corner from the hotel with a variety of different things (fresh produce, etc). My room had a nice view of the city, and the sun was shining on my balcony most of the day, I could watch sunset (see photo) My ONLY negative was the smoking. The cleaner would smoke in her cleaning room, and when I got fresh towels, they smelt of cigarettes. Smoke travels, and I always knew when she had arrived or when she was smoking. I noticed that the hotel is a non-smoking hotel, but other guests were smoking on their balcony. Other than that, I had a nice, clean, and relaxing stay here. I would stay here again, super cheap and cheerful.

Near train station of Central Athens, for 15 minutes walk (btw the announce from train only saying ”Athina”, some mess). Connect easily to metro Larissa Station. You can walk to the central of Athens, including attractions like Ancient Agora and Roman Agora. If you walk further south into the area, the famous Acropolis and the museum can be reached. Although some comments mentioned the locating area of hotel is a little bit not safe, this is just basic living area of locals (though some root level). Just keep yourself alerts, and they are not willing to border you. Once you reach the door of hotel, you will find feeling of good safety, there are always securities in front of door of hotel. Staffs are nice, greeting with you; breakfast provided, same types of choices everyday (I stayed 4 nights), good enough of Western Greek styles. Rooms are slightly old but tidy, anyway just remember basic facilities are provided e.g. no bottled water, toothbrush, slippers. In conclude, just a good 3-stars standard hotel, near city center, for budget! Lastly, just no worry on foods, some 24hr restaurants, maybe that Bread Factory hah
