Hotels in Metaxourgeio, Athens

Positive points: The room was very clean. It was also very close to the subway station. The key was a number-entry type, so there was no worry about losing it. The dinner delivery options were plentiful and reasonably priced, which was great. The view was beautiful, and the bed was very comfortable. The shower had plenty of hot water. Shampoo and shower gel were provided. The room's interior was beautiful, and the staff were kind and very nice. They also held our luggage before check-in and after check-out. Points of concern: You need the WhatsApp app for check-in and other communication. I think not many Japanese people have it installed. The room was clean, but the window couldn't be opened, so ventilation was difficult. The air conditioning worked well, so it wasn't a big issue. The shower drain clogged fairly easily. This might be difficult for women with long hair. There were no amenities such as hairbrushes or cosmetics. I might have been able to get them if I asked, but staff hours ended at 5 PM, so it wasn't possible.

Accommodation was exactly as described. Clean and tidy with lots of space. The location was great with only short walks to more popular locations and sites. There's plenty of local restaurants and cafes which was ideal for 10 days. We saw warnings about avoiding back streets but actually found a really nice fish restaurant, nice church with kids playing in the streets. There were also 2 reasonable supermarkets in the vicinity, better value than the multiple minimarts in the area. You are right next to the metro if you don't want to walk. You can easily get to and from the airport for 9 euros with only one change. We did the bus tour which operate from across the road. There was a lot of homeless but that was more between the apartment and Omonia. You see them but they're not aggressive or demanding. I've saw a lot worse elsewhere especially in the UK. Couldn't recommend enough, especially for the price. The staff were very friendly, we didn't need to contact them for anything and they only contacted for cleaning and check in and out. The Christmas village was actually the highlight although seeing a tortoise near the Parthenon was a close second.

Great hotel close to restaurants. Rooms were clean and very aesthetically pleasing. Transport is very accessible and it’s easy to get everywhere. Office staff were helpful and knowledgeable. No restaurant or drinks on site but there is a street vendor just outside selling drinks and snacks. Rooms were serviced daily with fresh towels and coffee.

Very friendly and helful staffs. Breakfast has enough choice for a wake up meal. Rooms are clean. We enjoy our choice of staying here.

The staff in the hotel are extremely lovely and they try their best to make the trip as enjoyable as possible. Matina is wonderful and just brings a smile to my face everytime I enter and exit the hotel. Elina was so kind to extend my checkout time despite the hotel being fully booked. Last but not least, the breakfast staff were so patient and always polite and lovely. Otherwise of course the hotel requires maintenance and the area is too crowded as any populated city, so if you go with the right expectations you will enjoy your trip, otherwise if you have high expectations I recommend booking somewhere else.

There are many types of breakfast, yogurt is delicious There is a bus stop downstairs, you should be able to take the car directly, very convenient, but this area feels a lot of black people, although there is no danger, but everyone has to pay attention to safety.

The location is very good, close to the subway line, just a few steps away, you can check in very late, the boss is very funny, will chat with you and make jokes, Chinese simple sentences are very good, impressive is the breakfast of its family, can It is also very rich, especially with yogurt and honey. It is delicious.

Central Green Apartments was a great spot to stay. It was within walking distance (if an hour walk isn't too much for you) to the Acropolis and Plaka. Otherwise, the nearby Metro train is there. The apartment was clean, the beds were comfortable, and we had everything you could need to have a lengthy stay. Roof top view of the Acropolis is amazing too! Close to mini markets, cafes, and restaurants. [Side note - being opposite the bus depot and taxi rank, I recommend ear plugs. The children wore themselves out, so the noise didn't seem to bother them, but as a pretty light sleeper, definitely needed.]

The exterior of the hotel look inviting; however when we walked through the front door you can feel the heavy curtain around the lobby have not been clean for long time. All the sofa in the lobby are covered with some sort of clothes I guess it is to cover the old and uninviting sight. The check in process was straight forward and friendly. None of the light on the stairs are working and I had to use the flash light on my phone to light a path up and down the stairs, could be dangerous if you need to evacuate the hotel quickly. The room door has key card slot but I guess it is broken as I needed a physical key to unlock the room door and a keycard to turn on the electricity, the room size is good and high ceiling. The bathroom has no hook for the handheld shower head so not so convenient to have a shower, the water also not always hot enough. The air conditioner was blowing warm air even though the dial was set to cold and it made the room so more warmer and uncomfortable to sleep. The hotel reviews seem to suggest this is one of the common issue people has been complaining about for more than 10 years!!!! I ended up open all the windows to cool the room down and this invited traffic noise all night long. The hotel has been neglected for way too many years and surprisingly still in business????
