The rooms are clean and nicely decorated in modern straight... More

The location of this hotel is perfect, the area is very safe and walking distance from the National Art Museum. the staff @ the reception are very courteous and were helpful in guiding us. The restaurant serves nice food, with nice breakfast, though they could do better by keeping some extra people to serve. The facilities are perfect, size of... More

Small design hotel in quiet part of Athens. Don't expect full service - there is just a restaurant/cafe in the ground floor adjacent to the lobby. However, the food served there is very good and the rooms are spacious and well equipped. It's a good option for Athens and not outrageously expensive - I would definitely recommend. Our only complaint... More

The Poseidon is ideally located near all the main attractions - ruins and museums. There is an eclectic mix of dining experiences nearby, not to mention some very cool shopping outlets. The accommodation is very clean and the staff are exceptional. Lack of tea and coffee facilities in the room was a bit of a let down but the downstairs... More

Because of my work I travel regularly, although I like hotels and has visited quite a lot of them in different parts of the world. There are only few of them that makes me changing my plans according their availability, I remember last time I was planning to visit Athens, there were no available rooms sooner than a week after...

I know this is posted rather late, but we stayed there in august last year, and what a treat it was. Having been to Athens many times, i opted to stay in kolonaki to get away from the tourist trappings of monastoraki or plaka, but still wanted to be near restaurants and cafes, and thats exactly what Kolonaki gives you....

The hotel is a good choice as the neighborhood is upscale and not in the middle of noisy Athens. It is also very near to the "teleferik" so us to get up on top of the Lycavittos for great views of Athens. The morning breakfast is very cute and charming.

This is a small, but very fine hotel! Superb minimalistic decoration, wonderful beds, a very tasteful breakfast, good amenities, friendly staff... and this in the Kolonaki area, where you can find the nicest shops & restaurants in Athens. Look no further and choose this hotel!!

A beautiful, well-located hotel staffed by polite, friendly, multilingual employees. They serve a wonderful breakfast including fresh orange juice. This hotel is located at the heart of fashionable Kolonaki district in a very safe area of town even at late hours and a short walk to Syntagma Square. The hotel has a great restaurant with excellent food, I highly recommend.... More

we have just returned from ten days in Athens having had one of the best holidays we have ever had. We were worried that ten days in the same hotel might be too long - not at all. Our room was big enough to act as a sitting room and bedroom, with TV, DVD and minibar as well as a... More
