אחלה מלון בהשוואה למחיר.
Pros:

מלון נקי ברחוב קטן ושקט במרכז , קרוב להכל ברגל.לבילויים, לשופינג, לארמו, לרכבת, לאוטובוס. צוות אדיב. מתחת למלון יש את מסעדת Marco שחובה ללכת אליה ומאפיה מעולה. זה מלון פשוט לא מפואר אבל תמורה מעולה למחיר. ניתן לראות מהגג את האקרופוליס. ממליצה!!

If you’re looking for a small, more boutique-style accommodations in Athens, this is a great option. The employees are f
Pros:

We were in Athens for a few days prior to a Mediterranean cruise in May, 2026. We wanted to be in the Plaka neighborhood and this restaurant seemed to be a decent price with some nice amenities. It was close to several of the places we wanted to see.

There is no restaurant on the premises, but they do have an option for breakfast for a small additional fee. We ended up patronizing other places in the area for breakfast so I don’t have an opinion on the breakfast itself, but I will say that they have a decent amount of seating in their dining area.

There are a couple very comfortable chairs and couches in their small lobby area where we spent some time between checking out of our room and the time our taxi came to take us to our ship.

The staff here is incredibly friendly. They went above and beyond on several occasions. They use real keys for their doors, and ask that you tune your key in before you leave the room and pick it up on your way back. That may sound like a chore, but never once did I come back from an outing and not find an employee at the desk. And they remembered which room I was in without me having to remind them.

There is a rooftop area with seating and tables with a lovely view of the Acropolis in the background. The elevator doesn’t go all the way to the rooftop, so that is something to keep in mind if you have limited mobility.

Cons:

I don’t know if I would say I ‘didn’t like’ this thing, but I could see it being an issue for some people so I’ll mention it here. The elevator in the building is tiny. Big enough for one, maybe two people, and not much else. The employees had us go up, send the elevator back down, and then they loaded our luggage into the elevator and sent it up. That took a couple of trips for just two of us with two bags each.

There are strict laws prohibiting extensive remodeling of certain buildings in Athens, simply because of the historical importance of the architecture. Apparently such small elevators are not out of the norm for the area. It didn’t overly bother me, even though I tend to feel uncomfortable in enclosed spaces, but if you have a more intense reaction to elevators/enclosed spaces, just keep that in mind.

Also, while the noise of the people on the streets didn’t tend to reach us, the hallways were a different story. It was pretty loud and echoey any time someone was coming/going from their room. We didn’t have any issues with thin walls between rooms, just the rooms into the hallway. It didn’t affect our overall experience, however. Just thought I should mention it.

החדר ממש בסיסי לדעתי לא שווה את המחיר

Pros:

Great location, but bare bones hotel rooms and such tiny spaces. The shower was laughably small.

If you’re looking for a centrally located spot that’s clean and safe to rest your head, this is great. If you’re looking for a beautiful hotel experience where you can relax during the day, this doesn’t hit the mark.

That being said, it’s great for what it is. Would recommend to a traveler planning to be out all day and just use a hotel for sleep.
