The staff was so very friendly and helpful. The bar/ food area could have been more available . Having to go out all the time for fresh coffee ,not great. I know coffee in room but having a fresh pot of coffee in lobby would have been helpful. And in future please advise anyone who inquires about a lift that there are steps into the lobby. And to the elevator. I ask but no one said anything about steps to get to elevator. We had one couple that was traveling with us change hotels to one that had no steps she was in an electric scooter. Overall it was great location. And nice hotel.

Athos was a great place to stay in Athens. It is in a great location, down a small side street, a couple doors down from 72H, a very popular bakery. There are plenty of other food and shopping options very close by. Best of all, is the view from the rooftop of the acropolis. The staff were so kind and helpful. The room was small but clean and had everything we needed.

We stayed here the night before our cruise departed. It was very comfortable. The hostess was very helpful and responsive whenever i had questions about where to eat dinner, directions to places, and then she gave us a ride to the port the next morning. She pointed us in the right direction on where to get to our cruise which was so helpful as the port was a large, busy place! Highly recommend staying at Urban and B!

The good-
The location of this hotel was great, a short walk to the Acropolis, shopping, and Syntagma square. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Room was clean, shower had a good amount of pressure.
The bad-
Room 103 faces the street and a noisy cafe, one night the noise didn’t stop until after 1 am. Beds were uncomfortable. No USB charging ports in the room.
The ugly-
I hate to make accusations but I’m pretty sure $80 was stolen out of one of our bags here when we dropped them off. Our room wasn’t ready yet so they put them in a common room until it was (this room was not secured). Just be careful when storing bags. Elevator is tiny, just be forewarned if you are claustrophobic.

I loved this hotel, especially the location. It was close to the Piazzale Roma which is the drop off for the bus from the airport and close to the people mover if taking that to a cruise. It was also not a bad walk to St Mark's Basilica. I actually preferred being outside the crowds. The hotel staff was amazing and very helpful. I highly recommend this hotel if in Venice!

Couple's stay in Plaka

This hotel generally had all the necessities we required, with reasonably friendly reception staff, but it was not spectacular.
They were not able to accommodate our double-bed request, instead ending up with two single beds, despite booking well in advance.

We did not try the breakfast option, instead using the artisinal bakery down the road which was very yum.

The hotel's system of handing your room key to the reception when you leave the building, so it can't get lost outside, worked well with the 24h reception.

The hotel's location is superb, right in the heart of Plaka, with everything in walking distance.

I would happily stay in this little hotel again, but I can’t give it 5 stars because our balcony was really quite small and right next to a building under construction. However, we could see the Acropolis nicely if we angled the chairs away from the construction.

The hotel was clean with an ideal location and friendly staff. The hotel offers a patio on the upper level where you have an amazing view of the Acropolis at night.

The room we had was very small, hard for two people to move around. I am sure they offer different size rooms if you would like more space. Something to be aware of when booking.

We would definitely stay again but in a different room.

Great location and clean

I stayed at Athos for five nights. It is a clean, comfortable hotel, and people are friendly and helpful. I got an upgrade to live on the rooftop level with a nice view of the Acropolis. We are good since we plan to hop to different islands and did not pack a lot of luggage, but if you have a big size/lots of luggage, please ensure you check if the room size is right for you, or use the storage option available from the hotel. I feel safe even walking back to the hotel late at night. It is also in a very great location and close to everything.

Arrived late - hotel is in a small side road so we were concerned where we had booked. We needn't have been concerned. Hotel is small and we had booked a standard room - 104. Had the smallest bathroom - only 1 person in at a time as no room. Bed was hard. We overlooked the front of the hotel which was a tad noisy at night but not so bad as to disturb all night. Didn't have breakfast there. Staff were very friendly. Excellent location for Plaka - 5 minute walk. Down the other way was the main modern shopping and eating area. Very safe. In spite of the bed we had a great stay

The location is just in the heart of Athens, you can walk anywhere and if you have tours to do the meeting point will be less than 5’, less than 5’ to transportation.

We stayed in Athos Hotel for two nights at the end of our trip to Greece in July. The staff at Hotel Athos are very nice. However, besides the staff, we were rather disappointed ; elevator to carry up luggage is rather small, the bed in the room is quite hard and not comfortable at all, the pillows were not comfortable, the wood trim/base boards in our room were falling off, the fridge did not have any drinks (except water) and the 'view' from our room was absolutely horrendous.

During our stay in Greece, we stayed in 3 hotels ; two of which were fantastic and that we would return to in a heartbeat and Hotel Athos which was upsetting (especially after having stayed in the other 2 hotels). We would not recommend Hotel Athos.

We only spent 36 hours in Athens so this was great for us: close to the Acropolis, walking distance to museum, in very touristy Plaka but walking distance from more interesting Psiri.

The terrace view is amazing.

Only real complaint: breakfast wasn't great and wasn't included in price.
