After a disappointing experience at another hotel in Athens, finding Play Theatrou was a huge relief. From the moment I arrived, I knew I had made the right choice.

The hotel appears to be recently renovated with a clean, modern, minimalist design that is both stylish and comfortable. My room was spotless, the bed was comfortable, the air conditioning was ice cold, the water pressure was excellent, and there was plenty of hot water after long days of sightseeing. For the price, I thought it was an exceptional value.

The location is one of the hotel's greatest strengths. It is next to the Central Municipal Athens Market (Varvakios Agora), about a five-minute walk to Monastiraki Square and the hop-on hop-off bus stop, and surrounded by excellent restaurants. One of my favorites was the traditional Greek restaurant next door, which made it easy to enjoy authentic Greek food after a day of exploring.

The hotel was very central, staff were polite on the rare occasion we dealt with them, it was very noisy outside nearly all night and inside until quite late. My main issue with the property is that I booked this hotel because it had a hot tub , when we ventured to the top in our first evening, the hot tub wasn’t working and looked like it hadn’t been working for a while and when we asked they said there were technical problems and they didn’t know when this would be sorted. So I think this amenity should be taken off until it is fixed and as I 100% would not have booked if this was not on there.

Downsides: run down buildings very near, didn’t bother us too much but might do to others.

We stayed one night on a family trip to Greece. Even though the surrounding area looked little rundown, the hotel is in a walking distance to many amenities, well maintained, very helpful and friendly staff. We liked our stay and recommend it to anyone looking for reasonably priced hotel near the Athens city center.

Staff was great at arranging a taxi from and to the airport. AC in room wasn’t cool enough but other than that room was super clean and comfy. Great shower pressure! No breakfast on-site but there is a small weight room. Popular Greek restaurant right by the entrance. Street is unattractive but just blocks from tons of restaurants, shopping, etc.

The staff was very friendly at check in and always greeted us and asked us how our stay was when we passed them in the lobby. They were also very responsive on WhatsApp.

The location looked slightly questionable. It’s close to Psyrri, which is a very cute area full of cafes and shops, but the hotel itself borders an area that does not look very nice. Based on what I saw, it kind of looks like a Chinatown area with a lot of Chinese import type stores, graffiti, and very run down buildings. In fact, the upper floors have views of a crumbling building.

There is a rooftop bar that was not open when we went up there, but it had lovely unobstructed views of the Acropolis.

The room itself was a very basic, no frills room with the essentials.

The down side is that the walls are very thin and there is a lot of noise from a rooftop bar nearby. I think there is a lot of night life in the area too so you hear people on the street late at night. There was also a lot of noise in the hotel itself. First night it sounded like people coming back at 2am. Second night it sounded like people partying in the hotel - laughing and people going in and out of rooms for over an hour. I let front desk know and they informed me quiet hours were at midnight; it was 11:30pm. It did quiet down after midnight but I could still hear some noise. I blasted white noise on my phone, which helped.

I think a hotel best for younger people who come to party and stay up late.

It was advertised as a 4-star hotel, but definitely was not a 4-star hotel. The staffs were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean.

However, the washroom had a horrible sewage smell. The room was tiny. Worse of it all was the location of the hotel was in a very sketchy area. There were graffiti, garbage, and homeless everywhere. There was a drug addict who is clearly high screaming by himself in front of the hotel.

I would definitely not rebook this hotel.

Very comfortable stay, with the location being nice and central for exploring Athens. Staff were always super friendly and helpful but the only thing that really bothered us was the air conditioning. There is some weird system that means the whole floor is controlled together rather than each room separately. The rooms gets really warm and humid after a shower in the evening, so had to sleep with the window open which was less than ideal as it was noisy outside.

The staff was professional, informative, pleasant, and helpful to arrange transfers. One person in particular at the reception area was Myleta. She made us smile everyday starting with her infectious smile every morning when she greeted us as we walked through the lobby. She made sure that we had everything we needed and gave us good advice on where to go, what to see and how to get there. All of the staff were cheerful and pleasant.
What we really appreciated is that the hotel location is just outside of the tourist area meaning less crowded with tourists and more authentic food as well as local people eating and singing at the restaurant on the street level below the hotel. We had a chance to meet and talk with Athenians living in the area!!!!
We would definitely stay here the next time we visit Athens.

PLAY Theatrou Athens is fantastic. Rooms are very clean, comfortable, and well appointed. The rooftop bar has a spectacular view! I loved being able to easily reach hotel staff through WhatsApp. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. The neighborhood around the hotel is diverse and vibrant, convenient to all popular Athens attractions. It is also well situated for exploration of off the beaten path sights. When I return to Athens, I definitely will stay at PLAY Theatrou again.

The room was spacious, clean and each bedroom had a balcony and the view of the Acropolis was outstanding from the living room balcony! The hotel staff was excellent and very responsive to our needs. We were even given a bottle of local wine to welcome us! The area that the hotel is located in seemed a bit sketchy upon arrival with graffiti everywhere. One of our taxi drivers told us 10 years ago, the area was bad but it has improved tremendously. It appears the area is going through a regentrification. It is centrally located within walking distance of many restaurants and shops. The restaurants were great and the shopping fantastic and all the people we met were very friendly and welcoming. Overall, I would definitely recommend a stay at the Play Theatrou Athens!

Very good communication through WhatsApp
Let us know about the strike so we can come prepare. Help us book the taxi even request is last minute. Print documents for us as well. They gave small bottle of alcohol for free.

The only downside is there was completely no room to put toiletry in the vanity area. The hallway was also dark unless someone passed by so the light would be on.

The couple blocks within the hotel is a bit ghetto, but all attractions like acropolis and plaka are within walking distance

The room overall was great , clean . Around the area it has a lot of old buildings and lots of graffiti, but that’s all around Athens . The place is safe the people around are nice and it’s safe to walk around . Loved that 2 blocks away you have the tourist area lots to eat and shop . It’s only like 20 mt. Walki from the acropolis. And you have the view of the acropolis from the roof top ( very nice ) definitely would stay here again . Make sure you get your PIN number to enter the hotel before you arrive . That’s something I don’t know . But luckily there was someone coming out when we got there , it was at night .

We check in late at nite and got scared with the surrounding areas but inside of the hotel is okay. The lady who checked us in was very nice, she made us feel comfortable. The view of Acropolis at nite from the hotel rooftop was awesome! In the morning we walked around the area and found so many stores, restaurants close by. Even Monastiraki and Plaka is just walking distance. 2 kind ladies in the reception desk (named Marinela and Constancia, I hope I got their names right) helped us a lot when we were trying to find taxi to get to the airport due to transport strike? They made sure the taxi we got was okay to get to the airport. My impression is good about the hotel and people who works there except that we didn’t try to go out @ nite anymore for our safety. During the day, its recommended to walk around the area.

The staff at the hotel are amazing! Very helpful and very kind. Nothing is too much effort.
The rooms and hotel itself are spotless!

We had a free upgrade, which was very appreciated on arrival. The hotel is above a really popular local restaurant. It's within easy walking distance of two metro stations.

We're very happy we booked the hotel and would stay again.

The service we received at the hotel is amazing. Nothing to say about that or the cleanliness. They are quick to answer and help if needed. The only bemol would be that the insulation is not great so you hear a lot of the outside noises. You should definitely take the time to visit the hotel rooftop. The view of the Acropolis is impressive!

The hotel was great, staff at front desk were amazing and friendly. Night time on foot in the area was a little scary but once inside all safe and cozy. I’m sure that will change since the neighborhood is under remodeling I hear. We would stay again. Again the people at front desk top tier. I would hire them for my hotel if I could.

The hotel is situated near the Psirri square, between Monastiraki and Omonoia square (please stay away from Omonoia as there is high criminality and lots of drug addicts around the place sometimes taking drugs in broad daylight).

The location is very good for enjoying a meal or coffee at Psirri, 10 minutes from Monastiraki and about 20 minutes from the Akropolis.

The place does not have hotel facilities. There is no bar or cafe inside. Breakfast is served at a place nearby. You will be better not buying it and simply getting your own.

The air-conditioning in the room was extremely loud and clearly needs repair. The TV was hanging on one side. There can be noise coming from outside.

Staff was generally kind and helpful. I would have liked some flexibility with check out. I think 11am is too early especially when check in is at 3pm the earliest.

This place is more suited for young travellers. For what it is I would consider it at the pricier side.

Hotel rooms are nice, but basic, with very comfortable beds - which is the most important thing (next to location) in my opinion.

As far as location goes, it’s in an area that makes most everything accessible by walking, however the immediate 2-3 blocks around the hotel are currently looking very rough. I don’t think it’s unsafe, just unsightly and the streets are a mix of dirt and cement filled with potholes. But just walk a couple blocks south and you’re in a much nicer area.

Overall a comfortable stay though, and the rooftop bar view is amazing, private and quiet, with a great, friendly bartender, Nikos.

The staff here couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful! We would stay here again, but not in the middle of summer, without a pool the heat was unbearable and we had pay to use the pool at another hotel nearby. Just a plunge pool would have been great (but the plunge pool is now unused).

The service here was phenomenal! The front desk staff was prompt to answer questions and arrange transportation whenever we needed. The room was spacious, modern and clean. Location was walking distance to nearly everything that we wanted to explore in Athens and only a short metro ride if we didn’t want to walk as far. Our room had multiple balconies with amazing views! Also, really enjoyed the restaurant located beside the hotel.

The room was very nice, spacious, clean and overall great value for what I paid. Check in was smooth. One highlight was the restaurant just outside the hotel serving delicious, authentic Greek food. While the immediate area around the hotel feels a bit gritty, you are just a 5 minute walk from several nice spots and major attractions, which makes the location very convenient overall.

The hotel is conveniently located & walking distance to the metro. I walked around day and night sometimes down dark streets & never felt unsafe. If you don’t like graffiti or it makes you uncomfortable, don’t come to Greece. I was not aware there is a code for the hotel front door. I had to ring the bell to be allowed inside. Once at the reservation desk I was greeted by a friendly woman. Check in was easy & I was provided a code to the hotel and my room doors. I didn’t find out there was an elevator to the ground floor till day 4 so I carried my bags upstairs the 1st day & kept taking the elevator to floor 1 and walking down them. No one said anything to me as I walked pass registration everyday.

The hotel is pretty quiet. The room & bathroom is a decent size. I wish there was more counter space for my toiletries. The towels were quite rough but replaced daily. The shower door was kind of annoying as placement made it difficult to not bump into the sink trying to get in and out. There was a sewer smell most mornings but none when I would return in the late afternoon/evening. The enjoyed the balcony that was only accessible from just outside my room door.

The 1st floor has a lot of areas to relax & have a glass of wine inside and outside which was nice. The rooftop bar is very quiet & a beautiful skyline view of the city. It could use some jazzing up to encourage people to want to go up there. Overall the stay was an ok. It did its job. Thanks!

Beautiful area and easy to walk everywhere. The staff were very friendly but the hotel communicated is too much. We had to give them our what's app for our room code to key in, this gave them the ability to send multiple messages a day. Including three about chech out time with one coming in quite early of the morning of our departure which woke me up. The room was modern and clean, however I paid for the balcony which was useless. It was so small you could really only step on it... Don't understand the function at all. It was a waste of money for sure. The AC in the room was intense and blowing right on the bed. However, it could only be adjusted downstairs by the staff. No idea what was the point of that. It was a fine two night stay but I have stayed at better in the neighborhood for not much more.
