Pangrati
I loved this place, a short walk to all Athens has to offer in a nice neighborhood with lots of restaurants right around the corner. The staff and facilities made me feel like I was home. I will definitely use this hotel again when I come back to Athens.
Delice Hotel - Family Apartments

Sograf
Location is great for multi purposes. Lots of food and coffee shops around . Walking distance to art, music and history places. Great for visits to Evaggelismos hospital. Need upgrade the hair dryer and the fridge also needs to be programmed to be a bit cooler than it is. Clean but the bathroom floor needed a bit more effort (!) - the hose of the hair dryer too, Towels smelled strongly of disinfectant , made you feel safe but not pleasant. Neutral breakfast, basic actually, not for picky eaters but satisfying a hungry stomach. Tv was not offering movies' rental. Wi fi really good for streaming. Helpful staff both front desk , dinning room attendants and handyman/housekeeping. Great touch the sage from Crete at the coffee tray. Toiletries offered a body balm - not bad at all
V1935 Luxurious Apartments
4.6/554 Reviews
Syntagma Square
I stayed for 18 days, and it could not have been more enjoyable. The apartment is spacious with comfortable bedroom, living room/kitchen, and bathroom/shower. It is well equipped with refrigerator, stove, microwave oven, dishes and cooking pots, washing machine, etc. It is maintained in immaculate condition in terms of cleanliness and functioning. It has a balcony too, although it is rather narrow. The location is outstanding, in central Athens, close to Syntagma Square, with easy access to the Metro and other transportation. It is also close to a lot of sightseeing. The streets in the neighborhood were quite crowded, as was to be expected in such touristy area, but this was also the reason for the many restaurants and other stores close by. I was particularly impressed by the friendliness and efficiency of the staff at the front desk, the breakfast area, as well as the cleaning people. Everybody showed an interest in making my stay there easy and more comfortable. In addition, the Roof Garden restaurant on the 6th floor, which is well-known and highly acclaimed in Athens, is an excellent place to have some wonderful dishes, with the same friendliness of the staff, as in the rest of the hotel. My stay in V1935 was memorable, and I highly recommend it if you want to stay in central Athens.
Live in Athens, Psyrri Central Apartments
4.3/554 Reviews
Psiri / Monastiraki
The location of the hotel is very convenient on the most lively streets throughout the night, but the noise is not big. Four people chose the No. 9 room, which has three floors. It can eat small snacks and drink small wines in the panoramic private balcony at night, overlooking Athens. The lights in the Acropolis are really very comfortable.
Acro Urban Suites

Koukaki
My fiance and I traveled to Athens with my parents and the staff at Acro Urban Suites helped make our trip amazing with their recommendations and assistance. They provided an outstanding lunch/dinner recommendation, arranged transfer service from the airport, and on short notice they were able to find and reserve an electric scooter for my father who has mobility issues. They are easy to communicate with via the Iconic Guest app. The rooftop terrace has amazing views of the Acropolis and plenty of comfortable seating. It's the perfect place to unwind with a drink after a long day of sightseeing. The lounge area is comfortable with books, chairs, and tables. The room itself was quiet and comfortable. The suite has a large shower, refrigerator, expresso maker, glasses, and plenty more which we didn't use. The location is convenient to the Acropolis, restaurants, coffee shops, and a few markets.

Psiri / Monastiraki
The most beautiful hostel I've ever stayed in. Modern, clean, comfortable interior. We were surprised by the very friendly approach of the operator. The accommodation is just a few minutes from the historic center of Athens. Parking for €10/day in front of the hotel in the yard. Anyone we would love to come back here.
