Lovely local hotel with nice rooms and great staff. Be prepared for late night activities
Pros:

The location was wonderful for walking around. The rooms were spacious even a smaller room. Staff was exceptional.

Cons:

The night club below was pretty loud until super late. Didn’t know that was there when booking. (Had a child with me so it was a bit disruptive to sleep). The paint was chipping and we had some minor issues in our room but the staff did address right away.

If we ever return to Athens, we’d stay here again in a heartbeat.
Pros:

The Emporikon Athens Hotel was the perfect home base for our family while exploring Athens. The location could not have been better- we were within walking distance of the Acropolis, Plaka, Monastiraki Square, restaurants, shopping, and everything we wanted to see. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, the rooms were clean and comfortable, and the hotel had a charming boutique feel. We especially appreciated being able to step outside and immediately be immersed in the energy and history of Athens.

Cons:

The only minor drawback was that the lively city-center location could be a bit noisy at times, but that is to be expected when staying in the heart of Athens. Overall, it was a wonderful stay.

Emporikon Athens
Pros:

We were able to choose a room at the back of the hotel that was very quiet despite the busy area the hotel is located in. We had great service and support from the staff. Additionally, the room was adorable and comfortable.

Two comfortable nights in a well run hotel in an excellent central location.
Pros:

Excellent location overlooking a buzzy square - Aga Irina - but room pretty well insulated from evening noise. Friendly and helpful Reception. Helped us with restaurants, excursion directions, taxis.
Easy walking to sights, Monastraki metro and the very interesting Maria Callas museum.

Cons:

Be careful with taxis. The square is inaccessible to them and we had one instance of a driver trying to dump us 400m away. Having said that, another was extremely helpful at getting us close, and on departure the hotel organised everything and the driver parked nearby (miracle!) and collected us on foot.

EVITARE
Pros:

La stanza era pulita e spaziosa

Cons:

La posizione: si trova tra due locali che mettono musica molto alta non si riesce a dormire. Inoltre non è un vero albergo ma un palazzo antico ristrutturato: non ci sono quindi i servizi di reception etc
