Very good hotel
I have stayed at Aretusa Hotel before and always enjoyed my stay. It is near the Airport-Express-Busstop and has good value. My room was nice with good amenities and comfort. Breakfast was very good. One thing I did not enjoy, was that the bathroom light went off while I was taking a shower due to the motion detector that didn´t detect me moving in the shower. But all in all it was a nice stay.

A great location. Rooms were clean. Towels changed daily The hotel is tired and could do with refreshing. There was hazard tape on some of the stair steps The roof top area was very disappointing nothing there but a few old chairs. Breakfast was ok and the staff were lovely and helpful.

Very pleasant experience. Dated hotel but is very good value for money. Breakfast was nicely organised in a light airy hall. Room had all the basic comforts required although was not as aesthetic as the pictures. I would not mind staying here again when in Syntagma, Athens.

Hotel is walkable to Syntagma metro and bus X95 for direct transport to/from the airport. Roof has a very good view of the Parthenon and Lycabettus Hill (must see during the day and night). Breakfast is plentiful with various options including Greek specialities from 6:30am-10am. Room is modern and clean with body wash and shampoo in dispensers, a bath robe, slippers, a small refrigerator and a safe box. Luggage storage is in the basement with option to pay 2 euro for a locked locker or leave it in the corner unmanned (staff will not give you a ticket for pick up, so it's at your own risk). Close to a KFC, McDonald's and gyro stores. On Sunday, starting around 10:40am, walk over to watch the guards march down the side of the Parliament building to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier for changing of the guard. I would stay here again.
