Hotel Platon

The hotel was nice and the staff were friendly and very accommodating. . The rooms in the new wing were small, clean, dark and quiet, Which I like. It was a trek to the city center. While we were in Athens, we needed to catch a cab to our hotel, and a cab driver wouldn’t take us, he told us to take the train. Which took around an hour. It was a great local feel , we went to a few restaurants around the hotel that were delicious. We felt very safe. It was worth the money.

Just about acceptable if on a budget as room was clean, beds comfy, excellent coffee at breakfast, staff friendly and drinks cheap. BUT so many reasons that we would not stay again. Very dated miserable looking decor, bathroom got flooded when shower used, no english tv stations, air con very noisy and not very effective, nicotine smell all about (no non smoking rooms in the hotel), and no ‘atmosphere’. I was bemused to order a gin and tonic and be told they didn’t have a slice or of lemon to put in it. A basic hotel that felt a bit joyless, but I am still giving it 3 stars because for the low price, what do you expect ? ? If you are in a strict budget and you don’t expect anything at all fancy, its perfectly fine. But for us, next time we would pay a bit more and stay somewhere else.
