Nice little hotel but wouldn’t feel safe going out at night.
Pros:

Friendly staff. The price was excellent and had everything we needed. The room was clean and comfortable with a comfortable bed. It was small but that didn’t bother us as we were barely there. Perfect for a quick stop over. The tiny lift was also a life saver! Lots of little restaurants around the Omonoia Square and the Omonoia metro is literally around the corner.

Cons:

Location didn’t feel safe from the afternoon. Lots of homeless and drug dealers around the square but that seemed to be everywhere in Athens city. Burnt my wrist on the hot water faucet - be careful it gets hot!

Pros:

A Hidden Gem in Athens – Exceptional Value and Location!

I could not have asked for a better stay in Athens.

Hotel Elikon was hands down the best value-for-money deal I experienced throughout all my travels in Greece.

The location is unbeatable.
It's very safe (I was a solo female traveler) and it sits less than 50 meters from the Omonia metro station, making it incredibly well-connected and effortless to get anywhere in the city.
You are also just a short walk from the bustling Central Market and Evripidou Street, with plenty of excellent local bakeries and coffee shops right around the corner for a quick morning breakfast.

My room was everything I needed after a long day of sightseeing: super clean, surprisingly modern compared to many other places I’ve rented in Greece, and remarkably quiet.
The air conditioning was great which made coming back to relax a very pleasant experience.

On top of that, the staff was professional, welcoming, and genuinely friendly from check-in to check-out.

I will absolutely book Hotel Elikon again the next time I return to Athens!

Cons:

Nothing really I could mention.

Pros:

It was good value for money, and the option to check in late was super convenient for us.

Cons:

The location feels a bit sketchy with a lot of homeless people right in the area (though it gets better just one street over). The biggest issue, however, was that the housekeeper randomly walked right into our room in the morning while we were still inside sleeping. It was super uncomfortable and made us feel unsafe. We noticed she did this to several other rooms as well—the management seems so disorganized that staff don't even know which rooms are still occupied.

Great location and amenities! Comfortable and clean!
Pros:

We were on a girls’ trip, and the hotel is in a great location. You can take the metro within a 4 min walk, get to downtown within a 15 min walk, and find restaurants and bakeries within a 2 min walk. The beds were comfortable, and the room was clean. The staff was very helpful! Totally worth the money.
All of us said that if we ever come back to Athens, we would stay there again!

Cons:

The only issue for some is that there are a few homeless people around the hotel area, but they mind their own business, as do we. And as a group of girls, we didn’t feel unsafe at all.
