Hotels near Parthenon in Athens

The hotel is good especially for resting purposes only, their breakfast food was good, staff are friendly and very helpful to our eeeds

The hotel is located very close to the main attractions of Athens, and although the neighbourhood doesn’t look pretty, the hotel is very good, with good facilities and spacious rooms. I stayed in a corner room and the lighting is excellent! Bathroom is decent, although the lack of a shower door, meant that water sometimes went into the carpet in the room. The breakfast is very basic and depending on what time you go, there’s even less choice, so maybe not worth the added extra, considering there are many options of restaurants around. There is a small fridge in the room so you can buy drinks and keep them chilled! I also liked that we were able to order a food delivery and the hotel was ok with that! The front desk staff are always polite and helped us when we needed anything.

This is an extremely nice hotel situated in a perfect location. Our stay and review are based on a Superior room You would be hard pressed to find an Athens hotel in a better location. You are right in the middle of all the action with shops and restaurants nearby. You are spoilt for choice. Although in a busy area we found the excellent double- glazed doors/windows kept any noises out and it was not an issue at all. Our Superior room came with a kettle and tea/coffee making facilities although that is not listed on their website. It may be worth e-mailing them if this is important to you. There was air-con but in March there was no need to make use of it so we cannot comment on its efficiency. The toilet/bathroom came with those tiny bottles of shampoo and body wash which we refuse to use on environmental grounds so we brought our own and used that. There was a sign saying that if the used towels were hung up then it was assumed that we were happy to reuse them. The cleaners replaced them daily regardless. The rooms were kept very clean. This hotel has much going for it. We grabbed a deal here at a very attractive price which included breakfast. The breakfast arrangements were in a fairly small area but we felt that a good selection was provided considering the space limitations. Plenty of fresh vegetable choices and delicious too. The Tomatoes and Cucumber just tasted so much better than we are used to. Cereals, bread, cakes, fruit and coffee from a machine. We looked forward to our breakfast every morning and didn’t grow tired of it. Minor gripes (being very picky). The over the bath shower was a mini battle in so much that it was prone to shoot water out onto the floor if you weren’t being careful. It could have been better but all we had to do was to adjust our showering habits and all was ok in the end. Our room had a balcony facing out to the street below. It would have been nice for a couple of chairs out there rather than just a large pot plant and the air-con unit for company. I did notice that no other balconies on other building had chairs out so perhaps that is just the Athens way. We had a Fridge in our room. Very welcome. A very close mini supermarket was the cheapest place we could find to buy water. E0.39 for 1.5 litres as I recall. We loved this hotel. All the staff were so nice and so helpful. I can’t remember all of their names but Irena and Eva come to mind. They helped make our stay wonderful. It had a curiously homely feel about the place. March time was a great time of the year as it was a pleasant day time temperature with it getting a bit chilly in the evenings. You could still dine outdoors but with a patio heater nearby. We loved Athens and have decided to return next March with the flights already booked. We will stay at the Plaka Hotel again. 5 stars from us

Absolutely loved this hotel. Although it doesn't look like a hotel when you arrive and the street it's on looks dodgy, it was fabulous. The rooms were clean, spacious and quirky. The best feature of the hotel was the rooftop terrace and bar. Absolutely AMAZING views of the Acropolis from there both at day and night. Would highly recommend

Everything was perfect in this well located hotel. We travelled with a dog and they were very accommodating. The room was very comfortable, clean and with full amenities. We will definitely return soon!

So gracious and helpful! The hotel is a sweet little boutique hotel in a perfect location and very safe. Two blocks from Monastiraki Plaka and the Flea Market, which is at the base of the Acropolis. This Plaka is also where you can get the Hop on Hop off bus- tickets we got at the hotel. Totally renovated, compact room with all that you need. Only complaint, they could have extended the bathroom counter so we could put things there. Our room was on the street but still very quiet. The breakfast is optional - we didn’t partake but it looked fresh and plentiful. We had two nights here before a cruise and after our cruise we had 12 hours before our flight so they wonderfully held our bags (no charge) for us so we could explore some more of Athens . They were so accommodating , arranging transfers and mailing postcards for us. Bottom line, fabulous experience.

Had a comfortable stay at the Smart Athaneum Hotel. Very nice staff and helpful always available for any request or concern. They helped me with charging my phone at the reception when I didn’t have a Euro compatible charger. The rooms are spacious and nice, the bedding and bathroom towels were not spotlessly clean, which was a bit disappointing. The tv didn’t work consistently and had to be set up but didn’t work even after that. They provided all toiletries, a hairdryer and an iron if requested. Fabulous breakfast in the rooftop, fantastic view of the Acropolis and the surrounding area. It’s neatly serviced by buses, tram and taxis just a minute away from the hotel

The hotel is located in a very central position and the staff has always been kind and gentle with us. Our room was spacious and clean and the breakfast was served in the sister hotel with Acropolis view and there was a lot of choice. However, the waitress of our last two-days' breakfasts was not so kind as the previous one. In fact, she said she was always busy even for making an espresso coffee, while the first one used to make it for us. I strongly recommend this hotel!

A newish hotel, this place is very contemporary and makes use of all the limited space it has in a very efficient way. We were checked in by Valga who was friendly, helpful and efficient. Our room was spotless and cool. The beds are very hard, so be warned if you like a soft mattress. The room had all we needed, except for milk which you have to get from reception. A continental Breakfast can be purchased for €13. There’s a small gym if you feel inclined to use it. Valga helped with a good restaurant recommendation and called good value taxis for us. She’s was a super-star. Thank you for a great stay.

Dave's Hotel Athens is a great hotel for those looking to experience a new type of hotel with there cool industrial look. I had seen some questionable reviews, which left me with some worries surrounding the hotel and its location. I am happy that I gave the hotel a fair chance to impress me, The gentleman (Sadly missed his name) that welcomed us was extremely kind and happy to help us and do what he could to ensure we were happy. We stayed in room 802, This was a lovely room, a little small for a long stay but for the 3 days we had booked it was more than comfortable. We loved the little quirks in the room with red lighting, record players, and many more. The TV had a good range of channels and the bed was extremely comfortable especially the pillows. The only negative was the aircon that was controlled by a receptionist and was a pain to get keep calling to get it correct temp sorted. The surrounding area was a little run-down but you can see that they are starting to renovate the area, I think in a year or two it will be easier on the eye and more appealing to tourists. A couple of homeless people and a couple of odd characters but nothing you wouldn't get in any capital city across Europe. We did not ever feel in any danger or worried about walking around the area. The hotel also had a great rooftop with a Hot Tub that was open 24/7. Overall Great Hotel to stay at I would definitely try it out for something different to experience and the price is great.
