I enjoyed my stay at Areos. The staff were great and the facility was nice. Unfamiliar with the area, but it did seem like it was an undesirable part of Athens BUT I always felt safe and comfortable and many walkable amenities nearby such as the bus station, coffee, food and the Archaeological Musuem. I would stay here again.

The internet falsely advertised this property. The pictures and information show a full service coffee bar, but it is shut down since Covid and there is a coffee vending machine where you pay 1 euro. Also, it state's there is a rooftop restaurant and bar which is also closed. It also states that the balconys have a table and chairs for outside sitting but did not see that any where in any room. The best part of the stay was the lovely housekeeper. She was so sweet and so helpful and very kind. Front desk woman was rude and didn't even say good morning and greet anyone. I will not stay here again. Over priced hotel. The house keeper was the best. She deserves a raise.

The property itself was lovely and the staff could not have been nicer, but the area around the property was horrible. To begin with, the front door was locked at all times. When the cab dropped us off at the hotel, we couldn't figure out how to enter the hotel. We went out for an early dinner as we did not want to be out after dark and at multiple corners were policemen with high powered weapns just stationed on corners, and not moving.

Pros property is in the center of Athens located close to all attractions either walking distance or a ten minute drive to the acropolis. Plenty of parking in front of hotel. It’s very clean and the beds are comfortable.
Cons this is more of a boutique hotel with little amenities. I would have given this hotel 5 starts if it wasn’t for the fact that there is a coffee bar and breakfast that was advertised. Unfortunately the cafe and bar have been closed for 4 years and there is no breakfast for 8 dollars as is advertised on Expedia. The balcony was very small and in my opinion not safe especially if you have children..okay for a quick smoke but I felt that if wasn’t careful I could fall over since the railing is very low.

There was no one at the front desk when we checked in or out, despite it saying they have 24 hr front desk service. Basically what that means is they have a 24 hour telephone line. Not sure if that is just what that means in Europe but it was fine enough when we checked in but when we were checking out, there was a cleaning lady who told us the front desk doesn’t actually have someone working there until 8am but we had a plane to catch before that so she told us if we had already paid we could just leave the key cards on the desk and go, it was a bit odd and I am not sure what we would have done if we hadn’t paid…

The only good thing about this hotel is the front desk manager, everything else is horrible. They have excuse for almost anything. The reception desk is open till almost 4:00 PM and the hotel is so depressing. There is no security or someone at the front desk in case of emergency. They provide you a code right before you get there, which is very confusing and impersonal. There was a loud room till early morning but no one could call them because there is no phone service and the excuse is it is being upgraded. The WIFI is so bad and spotty, the excuse is the neighborhood network is being upgraded. There is no room service and they bring the food to your room till 4:00 pm if you order delivery from an app service. The little TV in the room has limited channels. There is no tissues in the rooms. This hotel is not a four star hotel, they are extremely frugal and they try to save money but want to make money. One of the owners who does not speak English comes and hangs around in the lobby with no purpose. The cafe is completely closed and they have a vending machine instead. I got pickpocketed in Athens in the first night, and the hotel did not extend any help till I rectify the financial situation. Will never stay in this hotel ever again. The cleaning people were very polite, but the rooms need to be refurbished and no matter how much they clean them, they are still old and unpleasant.

Got a suite and it is basically the whole floor. Walking distance from a lot of places in day time but since stores close, walking would be farther during night time. Not speaking about the property but regarding the area outside, don’t be shocked about the city, graffitis at night which is not the property fault. We were safe though the whole time. Harris is a very great host. He coordinated everything including shuttle pickups (payment not part of the hotel stay, make sure u bring euros). and gave us recommendations during our stay. Unfortunately, the breakfast included did not happen because of covid restrictions which I understand. Harris made our access easy even after hours and a very big plus to the hotel. I would definitely stay again. Thanks, Harris.

Great hotel, very friendly and helpful staff. Nice and comfortable room, with balcony, great bathroom, they are changing towels every day. Hotel is only 5-7 min walking distance from Victoria metro station and trolley buses, and also bus from city center 2 and 4 stop maybe 100m from hotel, which is very convinient when you are you getting back tired from Athens sightsieing.
Only remark is for breakfast, which always was warm, but I have expected more options, and there were no any fresh fruits, which is big supprise for Greek hotels

Overall the property was clean and neat and the staff was pleasant. The breakfast buffet was subpar and the amenities in the room were lacking. Basic Local Greece TV and No access to other channels outside of the BBC World News. Also, I had to on several occasions as that they turn the heat on in the room since you as a guest do not control your heating. One more thing they should be clear up front that this hotel isn't in the best neighbor in Athens.

Excellent place for fairly cheap. Only complaint is that my room didn't have a shower, only a bath, and it was a little small. Due to a planning error on my part, I had to extend my stay by one more night. Because the hotel was nearly booked, they had to change my room, which turned out to be the last available one. The new room has a shower, but no bath this time, which I was fine with. I prefer showers to baths, and I could actually fit in this one.
