Good accommodation. Slightly up hill. Worried it is feeding the gentrification of the area - didn’t realise there was a fight back against tourism in the area or I wouldn’t have stayed there. Generally a good experience though

Wonderful! Perfect place for the perfect stay
Our stay at Orion and Dryades was fabulous. Within walking distance of multiple and great restaurants. Our hostess was equally wonderful and accommodating. They go the extra distance to make sure your stay is comfortable and relaxing. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wishes to stay in Athens City Center.

Excellent friendly staff! This was our first stop on a tour of Greece and coming straight from the airport - it was great to arrive at a nice clean and cool room. It is a quick 7 min walk to the national museum of archeology where you can pick up the hop on hop off bus. For our 2 night stay in Athens it was perfect. A delightful bakery at the bottom of the street with fresh treats and sandwiches, refreshing coffee and super friendly staff - it made us feel so welcome to a new country for our family holiday! The restaurant down the steps in a converted primary school was so picturesque, friendly staff and amazing first meal in Greece and we were off to a great start!

Pleasant, clean, and pretty quiet
I stayed in a single room. It was pleasant, clean, and pretty quiet. I could see the Acropolis from the window in the distance. There is an elevator at the property. I paid 7 Euros for breakfast and it was really good. Lots of choice from the buffet, I would certainly recommend. Bathroom a little on the small side but all else was good.
