I recently spent 4 nights in Athens with my partner, however, the primary purpose of the trip was business. The hotel is clean, friendly and very welcoming. Great to use as a base. We did not eat or drink in the hotel (it is pretty pricey and there are tons of bars clsoe by). The neighbourhood is a little scruffy,... more

we stayed at this hotel for a week in september 2008 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in athens. the hotel had a fantastic breakfast included in the price which was extremely good value using the city break option on the novotel website. the hotel was within walking distance of 2 metro stations although my girlfriend and i often walked home... more

We stayed at Novotel for three nights in September. The hotel is about four blocks from the Larissa Metro stop. The walk wasn't bad and the neighborhood was okay but if you have difficulty walking or feel unsafe walking past homeless people, you might want to plan to taking cabs. These weren't concerns for us. The hotel itself is surprisingly... more

If you ever stayed in Novotel in any location, this hotel would give you the same. If you are a buget traveler, but want clean and decent stay, then this hotel is for you. Some said this hotel is not in good location, but 5-10 min walk from near by subway station is not dangerous AT ALL. Just stay on... more

I was in this hotel with my family for eight nights. The rooms are normal-sized but clean as well as the bathroom. The stuff very nice. The thing that we did not like was the neighborhood, do not get panic! It is in a place that does not seem dangerous. The tube is ten minutes walking. Very near from Arqueological... more

While the hotel is nice, we couldn't give it more than 3 stars overall given our experience of Athens. Because the hotel is in a pretty run down area, we did not feel safe being out too late or early. We made the mistake of walking to Omonia instead of Larissa, and were shocked by some of things we saw... more

Novotel in Athens is perfect for a one night stay! Although a little small, it was very clean, affordable, comfortable and breakfast was included. It's a few metro stops away from the Acropolis. If I were to go to Athens again, I would stay at Novotel. People aren't the friendliest but who cares? It's one night. more

I am staying here on business for 5 nights and was a bit apprehensive after reading some reviews. However, all is good. The location is fine, fairly central although the area does look a little run down. I wouldnt say rough, just a bit tired. To be frank, all of Athens (apart from the ultra tourist areas) look like this......... more

All the usual Novotel comments apply, and the following: - Lifts are small and unpredictable, watch out of you have lots of baggage - Area can be bad at night, if you walk to metro station, walk to Larissa/Larissis, NOT Omonia. - That said, local area has highest concentration of foreign restaurants in Athens around you (there is a polish... more
