Achillion Hotel Piraeus

I had the intent of booking this hotel just for one night in between my evening flight and my ferry out of the port the next morning. The hotel's policy stated that for a late check-in, you must call in advance and notify the hotel before booking, which I did. Once I had the confirmation for a late check-in time I booked my stay. Upon arrival, I was told that they do not accommodate late check-ins, even though it states they do on their policies. I asked if we could check into our room anyway and was told no. It being late at night and having nowhere else to go, I had to spend the night on the streets of Athens. I am extremely disappointed with the lack of clarity and overall lack of care I experienced with this hotel. As a young woman traveling having to spend the night on the streets of an unfamiliar city was extremely nerve-wracking. I feel as though I was taken advantage of and quite frankly scammed. Why advertise late check-in, just to go back on your word?

Stayed for just a night at the hotel. It was comfortable with a relatively spacious room and bathroom. Property is a bit dated however the location (right by the port, metro, and few minutes walk to the marina) and the fantastic staff make up for it.

Good, clean single room on top floor with huge balcony. Excellent value. Great AC, mini fridge & TV (1 English channel, BBC, and some music channels). Several steps to the small elevator. Bottles of water sold in lobby (large bottle 1 Euro, small .50). Restaurants, bakeries and coffee shops nearby. Quick and easy walk from airport bus stop.

The hotel is very clean , and new from inside. I got a superior room with balcony. It was big enough for 2 and the bathroom also. 2 small things that needed to be added , outdoor furniture and small bathroom accessories to put ur tooth paste and brush

Staff friendly and very helpful, hotel clean and comfortable. Subway station 1 block away 20 minutes to Athens. Beware of taxi driver at ferry dock they are crooks and will try to rip you y

All staff friendly and helpful, good size clean room . Located near ferry dock to Greek islands. Taxi drivers at port are crooks , will try to rip you off every time. Metro stations to Athens 2 blocks away. 20 minutes to down town Athens. Would stay there again!

So very convenient (easy walking distance) for ferries to the islands, very friendly and welcoming staff, clean practical and comfortable rooms (not 5-star luxury), close to fantastic dining options around Zea harbour. If looking for a one / two night stopover before visiting the Greek Islands or taking a cruise, this hotel is recommended.
