Scenic Hotels in Athens

"I had a wonderful stay at YellowSquare Athens! The hostel is modern, clean, and in a great location—just a short walk from Monastiraki, the Acropolis, and many restaurants and shops. The staff were very friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. The beds were comfortable, the rooms were clean, and the atmosphere made it easy to meet travelers from all over the world. Even though I stayed for only one night before my flight, I really enjoyed my experience. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit to Athens. Thank you for the great hospitality!"

"I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The staff were friendly and provided excellent service throughout my visit. The room was clean and comfortable and the location was convenient. Every sightseeing and location was around the corner.The only small downside was that the shower area was a bit narrow. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would happily recommend this hotel."

"Good location, near to metro station but a bit far from downtown Acropolis if by walking. I like the view overseeing the whole Athen and Acropolis. Delicious breakfast!"

"I'll break this down a bit into the above 4 sections: Cleanliness 5/5 - was awesome and had absolutely no issues at all. Location 4/5 - I put this as a 4 simply because its not right on the doorstep to the Tourist area. Was a about a 10 minute walk. I always prefer to jist book one metro station from the popular spots when traveling as its way cheaper and I like to walk around anyway. Please note Omonia is a bit dodgey compared to Plako (generally there are homeless everywhere though). Just Athens in general. Service 5/5 - 24 hour staffed front deak who can help with everything. Just msg them on WhatsApp. All fluent in English and happy to help. Shout out to George for giving me good advise on how to get to the airport super early (metro starts 5:30am). Amenities 5/5 - I always always make sure I get a place with a washing machine, especially when its 38 degrees out! That paired with the awesome air conditioning and full kitchen (stove, frying pan, pots etc) made the stay really relaxed and pleasant."

"We stayed at Heritage Hill Hotel Athens for 3 nights and had a really pleasant experience. The receptionist was very helpful and recommended many nice places for us to visit and enjoy during our time in Athens. A special mention also goes to Agni, who took care of us during breakfast. She was incredibly helpful, provided excellent service, and had such a warm and lovely attitude that made our mornings even better. The hotel location is also very convenient, as it is very close to the Acropolis, just one train station away. The room we stayed in was quite spacious, which made our stay very comfortable. We also loved the shower — the water pressure was great, and the water temperature was perfect. The hot water was just right. On top of that, their olive oil shampoo was amazing as well. If we come back to Athens again, we would definitely stay at this hotel again."

"The location is a bit far, about 5 subway stops from Acropolis station, so you'll need to take the subway to reach most tourist attractions. Walking isn't really an option. The subway station is about a 5-minute walk away. There's a police station nearby, so safety wasn't a concern, but I was initially shocked because Athens, Greece, as a whole felt like a slum. I was disappointed that I booked accommodation in such a place, but apparently, by Korean standards, all of Athens looks like a slum. This place was relatively safe and decent. When we visited, there were American and Greek high school students on a field trip, which also made it feel safe. In terms of cleanliness, breakfast, and facilities, it offers excellent value for money. Especially the 7th-floor rooftop, which is open from 12 PM to 10 PM. You can see the Acropolis Parthenon, and the view of the temple illuminated at night and the sunset from the rooftop is simply amazing."

"This is the hotel we returned to after traveling from Athens to Italy and then back to Athens. I absolutely loved the terrace. The sunset view from the 7th-floor terrace at dusk was so beautiful that I booked it again. I loved Greece so much that if I ever come back, I definitely want to stay at this hotel again."

"Location is everything with this Hotel. You can walk into the historic Monastriki area and Plaka district within minutes. 4 mins from easy to use Metro and they'll call you a cab if you'd prefer. Nice decor, new and stylish. Comfy beds and nice showers."

"Absolutely perfect stay at Utopia Emou Hotel! We had an incredible experience at this wonderful hotel in Greece. First of all, the location couldn’t be better – right in the heart of everything, yet peaceful and charming. The breakfast was a lovely surprise – not only was it included, but it was served on the top floor with the most breathtaking view of the Greek temple (the Acropolis / Parthenon view is simply unmatched!). Enjoying our morning coffee while looking at that ancient masterpiece was truly a ”no better” moment. To make things even more special, the hotel gave us a corner room – and it had the best view possible. From sunrise to sunset, we couldn’t stop admiring the scenery. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a magical stay in Greece. We will definitely come back!"

"The Attalos Hotel is good with everything you need, reception is right at the front door with very helpful and friendly staff, the lifts are small, so only one person and your luggage at a time, but that’s ok. It has the most amazing rooftop with Athens’ best kept secret bar and view of the acropolis that you won’t ever forget. Rooms are good, (we stayed in 507 & 506), not too big, however Athens is old so it’s ok for what you need and I am picky. The bed is comfortable, the linen is clean and fresh towels, the bathroom is small but water is hot and water pressure perfect. Great location, just off a small street and so close to Monastiraki Square in Athens which is less than 100 meters away. Close to a supermarket, cafe’s everywhere (you have to get yourself a real Greek coffee- now that’s a caffeine hit you will need after travelling 😉) and there is amazing authentic Greek Food all around. I recommend Nikos Tavern just pass the church in the square and left up the alley. It one of the oldest, and I was there 32 years ago. You will see all the tables and chairs!! Attalos is walking distance to all the sights you need to see, like the acropolis and museums and train station are right nearby. I will definitely stay here again ever time I visit Athens on my way to the Peloponnese. What a great memory, Thanks guys!!"
