Hotel berhampiran Syntagma, Athens

Stayed here for 3 nights during a visit to Athens. I booked a junior suite which was a very spacious, newly renovated room, that offered very cold AC, 2 balconies, a kitchenette, a great shower and more. The bedroom was disappointing as the bed was just two single beds pushed together. The hotel is approximately a 20-25 minute walk north from Psyiri, so you are decently close to many bars, great restaurants, and the acropolis; however this isn’t exactly a nice walk, the area immediately around the hotel is very run down, you may see drug use, “escorts”, and the whole lot you’d expect in a rough neighbourhood. I never felt unsafe, but solo travel, families, or groups of women may not be comfortable. The hotel is located close to a train station, but please note train service stops at 23:55 and cabs will double their rates after this time. The hotel had some useful services such as 24 hour reception, breakfast (additional cost), housekeeping that came daily, and bag services (unsecured storage although). Pros: Fair cost Clean, modern, renovated rooms Good services for the price point Very spacious Cons: Undesirable location Thin walls (could hear a baby crying from another room)

Es un hotel con muy buena ubicación. Se nota que es antiguo pero se mantiene en buenas condiciones.

Excellent experience: balcony, room cleaned regularly, reception staff polite (Stefan is really friendly and gives good advice about Athens). This is a great hotel for mid- budget in Athens, right opposite Larissa train station which gets you to syntagma & acropolis in 15 mins. Also the bathrooms are fine - clean & hot showers. Saw people moaning about them in reviews unnecessarily- so what they look a bit retro, for the price this place is brilliant! Room is lovely and air con works a treat. Will definitely stay here again 👍

Punti di forza: - Hotel molto vicino alla metro. Tipo 200m da fermata Larissa Station. Che è a 4 fermate da Syntagma e 5 dall'Acropoli - Reception aperta 24 ore, comodissima in caso di ritardi aerei. Tra un ritardo e l'altro siamo arrivati in albergo alle 2 di notte e abbiamo fatto il check-in senza problemi - Bella la roof terrace x la colazione continentale con qualche specialità greca. Possiblilità di consumare dentro (aria condizionata) o fuori sul balcone adiacente - Gestore hotel gentilissimo. Ci ha spostato in avanti la prenotazione (quando abbiamo prenotato abbiamo scelto quella non rimborsabile) senza alcuna penale x venirci incontro visto che ci avevano cancellato l'aereo ed eravamo stati costretti a posticipare la partenza di settimane

I never wanted to write a negative review for this beautiful hotel with Sofia and Dora being such lovely impeccable professionals! But there’s the old guy also from the front reception that has been extremely rude, unhygienic and has been stepping on me! He clearly has issues with me. When he came into my room on my last visit; to check the air condition unit, he was coughing and gagging so hard and loudly without a mask and he did not even bother to cover his mouth. I didn’t know if it was deliberate or not because he faced me directly when he did that! When I went down today to pay for my room, he started coughing again without a mask and he didn’t bother to at least cover his mouth; instead he just let it go full face, I didn’t say anything as not to offend him. But! During my payment, I stifled a sneeze ever so slightly and he went berserk on me! Started shouting at the top of his voice about why I have to sneeze and accuse me of sneezing earlier when he was smoking at the entrance of the Hotel. I tried to pacify him by saying excuse me but probably the cigarette smoke got to me as I am a non smoker; still, he continued with his tirade. The more I remained quiet, the more agitated and angry he became! I left the reception when he escalated to calling me: “A SICK COVID PATIENT”!?! How ludicrous and preposterous can this be!!? He clearly has anger management issues because even when I ask him on my last visit where to throw the garbage, he rudely ordered me in the most condescending shrill tone to “get out of the hotel and throw it outside”! When he returned me the change today, he ordered me to keep the change for tomorrow’s payment and not use it. He’s tired of changing for me! What an obnoxious character he is! I am getting very tired of his antics and anger management issues! He should never be in the Hospitality Business. He is rude, disrespectful, unprofessional and extremely aggressive! For what it was worth: GOOD RIDDANCE TO BAD RUBBISH!!!

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

This hotel is highly recommend for both its LOCATION and very efficient/PROFESSIONAL staffs at reception! From Monastiraki a 7min walk / frm Syntagma 3mins walk! Buffet breakfast; EXCELLENT! I arrived on the day where the public road was closed due to an annual street demonstration, not to mention the fatigue I’m encountering after traveling for 3 months BUT the great hospitality at Arethusa made everything pleasant. Rooftop terrace at Lvl 9 gives a view of Acropoli, PERFECT! Room is well equipped, SPOTLESSLY CLEAN! Standing shower has a great water pressure.Extra comforter is provided in cupboard which is very helpful during this winter. A/C heater in room works well too! Arethusa Hotel deserves a better grade for its excellent service/quality! I am glad i managed to book a room with them! Highly recommend to both solo travellers or couple, street is quiet/safe in the night. THANK YOU TO ALL THE STAFFS OF ARETHUSA!

Excellent value for money hotel in a fantastic location just a few minutes walk from Athens’ most visited spots. The staff were friendly and helpful, the room was clean and spacious and the breakfast buffet was fantastic. No tea/coffee making facilities but I don’t know if that’s normal in Athens, but there is a fridge and great air conditioning. Then roof top bar in their sister hotel Plaka is well worth a visit. Highly recommend.
