Overall the hotel is very nice. Some of the rooms and their rooftop restaurant have an amazing view of the Acropolis. However it is very noisy and what we didn’t know is the restaurant plays very loud music all evening and into the early morning. When you have an early flight it doesn’t allow for much sleep time.

All the Hotels in this part of town are kind of quirky and this one is no exception, but the hotel staff was super friendly, the room was clean and you just can't beat the location for shopping, restaurants, easy access to taxis, easy access to the Metro and the Acropolis is only a 10-15 minute walk away.

Upon arrival we were treated with friendly and quick staff. Our room was very spacious and clean. We had 3 water bottles in room waiting for us. Breakfast had good variety and was delicious. Croissants, sausages, veggies, eggs, and more. The area itself is right across the metro. A few stores, coffee shops and lots of souvenir shops. When we were checking out, we had to leave quite earlier to catch a train and the hotel had prepared breakfast to go bags for us. That was so thoughtful! Would love to stay here longer. Also there are 2 pharmacies literally around the corner which was great because we needed some forgotten stuff from home. Really recommended staying here. Oh and they're rooftop bar where you have your breakfast is upstairs where it over looks the city and Acropolis!! Breathtaking view!

Perfect location to be close to the Plaka and other central Athens locations like the fish/meat market. Friendly and helpful staff. Tasty breakfast with variety of options. Rooms are modern, clean and spacious. Rooftop bar and restaurant has a phenomenal view and food and drink were exceptional. The music is a bit loud for the hotel rooms below. Overall, we loved it and would stay again.

Location of hotel was perfect. We stayed for one night prior to island hopping. Upon arrival, our room was upgraded and we had the most beautiful view of the Acropolis. The room itself was very nice and modern for a room in the city. Nice bathroom size compared to other places we have stayed. The upstairs bar was also very nice with a beautiful view. Front desk staff was very friendly and welcoming. The room was a little noisy at night, the hotel overlooks a public square and there were people out until after 4am- if you are a light sleeper like me, I’d bring ear plugs for a sounder sleep! When we return to Athens, we will for sure stay here again!

A for Athens Hotel was very clean, centrally located to all sights and walkable to all as well. The rooftop bar has fantastic views of the acropolis and Monastraki Square. And best of all, the entire staff is so helpful and friendly from the the employees at the front desk to the bar staff and waitresses upstairs on the rooftop. I would come back.
