Astor Hotel Athens

10/10 Excellent

"From the moment I arrived my stay was amazing. I was helped from the taxi and shown a place to sit and wait until it was my turn to check in. All staff I encountered were professional and made me feel welcome. They went to great lengths to help me find my way around Athens, request taxis and store my luggage. Their customer service was outstanding. My room had a view of the Acropolis and it was lovely. I would stay there again."

The Stanley

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was clean and comfortable the room was really nice. The bathroom had a bit of a musty smell but it was small and there wasn’t much ventilation in there so it may have been that. However, housekeeping came every day and the room was always left looking nice. The amenities were great especially the pool and the executive lounge which were great. The staff were very kind and helpful. The restaurant on the roof had lovely bites although we did not love the main dishes and decided not to eat them. Overall a good place to stay in Athens very well located and we really enjoyed our time at the hotel."

Divani Palace Acropolis

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed my stay very much at this hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful and service was excellent. The breakfast had a good selection. The hotel is in a great location. The room could use some updated decor but other than that, it was clean and spacious. I highly recommend this hotel!"

Max Brown Hotel Downtown, part of Sircle Collection (Formally known as Dave Red)

10/10 Excellent

"This was my second hotel in Athens (my first being across from Plaka), and I genuinely preferred staying here out of the two locations! It's a great location, especially if you want to get out of the touristy areas to see more of the local side of Athens. The staff were fantastic (I can't gush enough about how fabulous they were), and the breakfast has a great selection. I was very lucky to get a room upgrade with a balcony. The hotel's aesthetic is really artsy (Athens has a history of street art - you'll be close to neighbourhoods where you can walk around admiring the street art), meticulously kept clean, and the mattress was by far the best I've ever slept on! Like many of the reviews have already said on here, the location is really central, so yes, there can occasionally be unhoused people around. But that's to be expected in the downtown core of any city you live in or travel to, where you just need to be aware of your surroundings. I was solo travelling as a young female, and there was never an instance where I felt unsafe or nervous. Genuinely, don't let that deter you from booking this hotel; you're close to some fantastic neighbourhoods like Psyri where there are streets full of cool bars, restaurants, shops and tavernas, and you are a 20-minute walk from Plaka and the Acropolis. I absolutely would book here again if given the opportunity!"

Ace Hotel & Swim Club Athens

10/10 Excellent

"We couldn't have stayed anywhere nicer while in Athens. The staff, the service, the excellent dining (amazing chef) and restaurant choices were wonderful. The included breakfast was outstanding. The interior design and furnishings were impeccable. The pool area was like a giant cabana. Even though the rooms were on the small side, it was truly a pleasure to stay there."
