Kalie
Stayed here two nights for my first ever solo trip and would recommend to everyone. I got a solo room which was clean and had just enough space. They had optional excursions, phenomenal location which is easily walkable to anywhere you would want to go. Lots of food within 5 minutes. Staff was great and held onto my luggage before check in and were always kind.
Aja
The staff were nice and helpful. They also had socialising and activities but as we were only there one night we didn’t go. The common areas were decorated with cool furniture and were quite spacious. The room had what we needed. They were kind enough to let us store our luggage and access it multiple times either side of our stay so we could see the city more easily. The area was very nice and had lots of outdoor cafes and restaurants. We walked to the Acropolis and other sight seeing.
Marianne
Really nice and cute!
Grace
The breakfast menu was good and the bathrooms were clean and private for just our room of 6. Front desk staff was lovely and very helpful!
Lydia
I loved my 8 night stay at the City Circus. The building is beautiful and my room (4 bed female dorm with en-suite) was spacious with a locker large enough to fit my suitcase into. Bed very comfortable and all staff are awesome.
Note that it isn't a party hostel. Guests range from young to old, all with different reasons for their Athens stay.
The night manager is very strict about noise - quiet time in the communal areas is from 23.30.
Open plan kitchen is very useful.
The street itself is quite tatty (albeit in a very fun and safe area) like much of Athens and there is quite a bit of street noise. The building is historic and they're not allowed to add modern soundproofing. I live in central London so noise doesn't bother me much but please bear this element in mind if you're looking for lots of peace and quiet.

Loved the property
Muhammad
It's a wonderful hotel, located at the center of the city. All major tourist attractions are close by. All the stuffs are wonderful. I will highly recommend Tasos for his extra ordinary customer service.

Lovely hostel
Room was immaculate and with lots of space. Air conditioning seemed to be a problem but guy at desk helped to get it functioning.

Sonia

Highly recommend this place. 5 stars all around

Oscar
The rooftop has a very nice view. Movie night was great too.
Mirel
The location is solid because it is near alot of restaurants and bars. However the hostel itself is very boring. The buildings outdated/creepy. Floors creak. If you are on the toilet for longer than 15 seconds still the lights will cut off. Cleaning staff comes in the morning regardless if alseep and just starts talking loud/changing sheets etc. wouldnt stay here again tbh. I went over to yellow square it was night and day difference.
Albert
Nice place, well located. Great experience
Avery
Quaint place
Quaint place- in a nice area bordering the Psyri / Monastiraki square areas. The hostel was close to a lot of nightlife, restaurants and specialty shops but I found myself walking 10-15 minutes to Plaka everyday for most of the sights and attractions (so 4/5 for location). The building was historic and had a lot of character but also suffered from creeky floors and thin walls which wasnt necessary a bad thing- just part of the experience. My favorite part of the room was having the balcony doors open during the morning and afternoon to let the breeze through. Overall a very comfortable and clean hostel with a diverse mix of guests. We saw older couples, college students and even a family with children in the common spaces. The staff were all exceptional and I look forward to staying here again if/when I return to Athens.

Book room 301 - it’s a loft with your own balcony and view of the acropolis albeit far away. Room has fridge and cooking utensils and hot plate plus en suite bathroom
Stephanie
I slept here one night in Athens. I arrived early in the morning and they were able to store my luggage for free! The front desk staff was kind and helpful, going way above and beyond to help me with things like getting my mobile services working and selling me outlet adaptors that I did not think of purchasing in America. The rooftop terrace was nice with an acropolis view, although the sun sets on the other side of the town so if you’re looking for a sunset behind the acropolis, this is the wrong hotel for you. I had a private room which was clean and outfitted with what I needed. There was an elevator to combat the stairs which I was grateful for. It is close and convenient to everything which is a double edged sword: on one hand, I walked 15 minutes or less to everything in Athens that I wanted to do. On the other: I was woken up when the drunk people exited the bars singing around 3am. Even when the front desk called the police, it was close to two hours before they stopped. I wouldn’t stay here again, but it’s 100% not their fault.
Verified traveler
Excellent base camp for city exploring.
First time staying in a hostel and it was great. Really nice common areas with great amenities. The attached Zampano restaurant was convenient for breakfast daily and actually really good. I stayed in the deluxe mixed 4 bed dorm. Mixed for 2/3 nights of my stay. No issues with noise, lights, etc. Excellent location for walking the city. Acropolis is about a 20 minute walk (to the ticket booth). Metro station about a 10 minute walk with carry on and a roller bag. Lots of great places to eat, drink, shop and such. Very lively area at night just a block away.
Steffi
Friendly staff, place was very clean and the location is amazing , lots of shops and restaurants close by
Catalina Nchama
The location and style of the hotel were top notch

Very comfortable beds!
Thomas
Had to put our card in the light box to turn on electric, makes it hard to charge devices unless you are in the room. No USB outlets, but the desk clerk loaned me one.

Cute place on cute street close to sites/ metro.
Thankful they do luggage storage for early arrivals. Staff is very helpful and caring. Nice ladders for top bunks and large lockers in the room. They provide usb for each bed, however mine did not work.

I cant recommend staying at a better place.
The rooms are lovely, great ambience, always an evening event, if you want to socialise. Friendly staff. The restaurant serves delicious food and drinks. I will stay again next time im in Athens.

Great location. Loved our room with a view of the Acropolis. Staff were super helpful and friendly. One night even had happy hour for guests with free wine. The restaurant attached is delicious as well!

Great hostel with rooftop view of acropolis!
We had a great stay! The rooms were large, clean, and the AC worked well. We were in an area where multiple people warned us to not walk alone at night (we are two women). The staff didn’t let us check in until 3pm, but the initial email had said check in was 2pm. I wished they would’ve offered to let us shower in a public washroom since the check in time we were told wasn’t accurate. Otherwise, everything was great. There’s an incredible view on the top deck too of the acropolis.

Staff was SO FRIENDLY. Spaces were very clean and full of information about local areas. I loved the daily themed events they had to bring the residents together and the location is perfect for an Athens adventure

The staff were fabulous, and the general atmosphere was good. It was clean. The shower was hot with good water pressure, but lacked enough bench space for your belongings. Wifi was excellent. It was close to the metro, and easy walking distance to most sites. Lots of restaurants nearby. It was a little noisy at night, as there is a bit of street noise (double glazing on the windows). The airconditioning was unfortunately fixed at 24 degrees, which was tòo hot to sleep comfortably, so people kept opening the windows, which let the noise in.

Fantastic Front Desk Staff with so much knowledge to share with you about the city. Clean Restrooms and Good Wifi make this a fantastic selection for your stay in Athens. The local attractions are within walking distance and the main center is just blocks away!

I had such a wonderful experience for my first time traveling alone at all. The staff (Especially Maria) made my experience even better by displaying and exhibiting such kindness towards me that I will definitely stay here again in the future. I recommend this to everyone.

Awesome Hostel
The hostel was pretty cool. The staff was amazing and so nice. The room was good, too, with plenty of locker space. The only thing was that my bed was super old and it sunk when you slept on it. But the location was awesome and everything around was great.

Not just for 20-something’s!
Love City Circus! Lots of ages of travelers and families. Not just a young party going hostel. I stayed in the loft room and a female dorm. Both were wonderful. Dorm was great for meeting new best friends. Go to the nightly events at Zampanó. It’s great food and the best way to meet friends. Would highly recommend and will stay there when traveling through Athens again.

I loved staying at the hostel. It’s very very clean and everyone is very friendly. Theirs even an amazing Resturant inside the hostel. At night it’s such a fancy restaurant with really great amazing food. And you even get a discount for eating their if your a guest. If I come back to Greece these hostel will be the place I will return to stay.

We didn't get to spend much time at all here, which was a shame! It's a gorgeous property, with a lovely staff that's very helpful and ready to accommodate all of their guests. The part of town City Circus Athens is located in is a little sketchy, I would be careful at night and not really loiter on the street, but the property itself is clean, well-managed, and quiet.
