The Cecil Hotel is located near many restaurants, ranging from local specialties at less than $7 a plate, to touristy offerings full of both tourists and locals. Also convenient are public transportation, Ancient Greek and Roman ruins, heritage sites, etc; The list goes on. My wife and I enjoy walking so we found the climb to the Acropolis was convenient...

It's a very basic but cheap hotel. The location is average and some people may be intimidated walking near there at night. It was no worries for us as my wife and I have travelled extensively. The included breakfast is not worth mentioning and they had the worst coffee I've ever had. The rooms weren't the cleanest, we had to... More

I would like to suggest this hotel to any one on a short stay... Good service and excellent location for the price you pay. All locations are very close to visit by walk or the fast metro. Big thanks goes to Stelios for his wonderful service and help... Made us feel safe and at home.

Got an offer from booking.com, thus booking this room. Stayed for 1 night, they allow early check in (~9 am) since they have free room that day. Good location, nearby the metro Monastiraki (about 3 blocks away) Their breakfast choice is minimal, but good enough to keep me full.

There is a scary elevator but it gets the job done. Our lock was broken so each time we needed to open the door we had... More

Very helpful and friendly staff. Convenient central Athens location. Very reasonable room rate. Ample buffet breakfast included, served with views of the city and the Acropolis. Clean and adequate air-conditioned accommodation.The receptionist Dimitris was patient and very welcoming.If you're young this area is prefect for you because it is right in the heart of Athens.

We stayed for 3 nights which is more than enough time to explore the lovely city Breakfast was perfectly adequate included in the price. We had free public transport passes, though the Old Town and shops are very close by, so you don't really need it. The railway station is a 10 minute walk away.

Booked 5 rooms for 10. Less than an average hotel but with good location. 65 Euro per room with basic breakfast. Not clean and never changed trash basket for 4 days. Bathroom door opens half way and hits the basin. Promised a good roof room since doing a group booking but been handled the keys for all rooms without knowing... More
