The Athens Gate Hotel is located in the historic district of Athens, exactly opposite the Temple of Olympian Zeus. It is 400 m away from the Acropolis, 200 m away from the new Acropolis Museum, and on the doorstep of Plaka, the heart of the tourist district of Athens. It has recently been taken over by new management, and fully renovated. Its style is modern and simple, as befits the area. New features include LCD TV in all rooms. more » « less

We stayed at the Athens Gate Hotel for three nights and would definitely stay there again. There were five of us, so we had three rooms on the backside of the hotel. No view, but it was quiet and we were only in the rooms to sleep anyway. The breakfast (included in the price) and service on the hotel rooftop... more

This is a terrific small, boutique hotel right across the street from the Temple of Zeus. Wonderful views from the front rooms, albeit a bit noisy. Small but compact rooms with spacious bathrooms. Good staff. Best of all is their rooftop terrace for breakfast, dinner or drinks. It is the best, up-close view of the Acropolis. You could almost reach... more

Booked an Executive Room and when we arrived (after a long flight) were greeted at this hotel with the news that "an email had been sent explaining they needed to downgrade the room to a Superior because my son and I required two twin beds." When asked to produce this e-mail - they needed to "research more but would have... more

Management response from
AthensElGreco, Hotel Manager

Dear Mr. Miles, We were so sorry to see your negative review posted in the Trip Advisor. However, according to your Booking Confirmation No: 10001597, the rate quoted was 180 € per night for an Executive twin room, and your payment Invoice No: 10189 for a Superior Twin (614) Acropolis view is 160 € per night! (I’m also e-mailing both...

From our first steps into this hotel we were greeted with almost effusive hospitality. Our room, 6th floor Acropolis view, was superb (the 7th floor must be the best!) When we needed to check in, reluctantly, for our return flight the hotel even donated free minutes on the pay-to-use computer so that we could do this for free. The breakfast... more

Contrary to the negative reviews, this was one of the best hotels I've ever stayed in. We arrived very late on the Friday 15th August, one of the busiest weekends of the year, and were checked in quickly and greeted by friendly, English speaking staff. Despite only booking a standard room, on request we were given a front facing room... more

We stayed at the Athens Gate Hotel on our way to and from the Greek islands. We arrived quite late at night and were still able to get dinner in the rooftop retaurant, with its stunning views of the Acropolis. Our room looked out at the front, overlooking the Temple of Zeus. There is a busy main road that side,... more

When booking out hotel for Athens I came accross the Athens Gate Hotel on Tripadvisor. The reviews on it it seemed to be good so I took a punt and booked it. I'm always weary of hotels you book online, but this one did not dissapoint. I would have to say it was the best hotel we stayed in while... more

Reading the review of Germainl, I couldn't agree more. I stayed last week in Athens Gate and I have the worse impression I could get. It is not the first time that I stayed in a 4 star hotel and I know the services and the facilities they should have. To be completely honest when I first read his review... more

My father and I stayed here for 3 nights in July and had a lovely experience. We had a twin room near the back of the hotel which was nice and quiet. The rooms are small but well maintained. The breakfast was a very nice spread, on the roof garden with a spectacular view of the Parthenon. Fairly standard options... more

Great location. Indifferent desk staff. Noisy superior rooms to the front, dont stay in a room next to the lift or anywhere near the marble stairs, flip flops and heels coming back from a club will!! wake you again and again. Food good, and eventually got a quieter room at the back but staff seemed more concerned that I may... more
