Centrally located just outside of Plaka. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean, neat and of typical European size (large enough but not spacious). Clean bathrooms and good showers. The beds are on the "firm" side - our only minor issue. There is a nightclub next door that plays music late into the night. Our rooms were... more

This hotel was perfect for me and my boyfriend! The location is great! In a couple of minutes you'll reach Monastiraki and Plaka! The bathroom and the rooms (with pink and green walls) are very clean (coverlet and blankets have a very pleasant scent), there's Tv, security box, electric kettle and hair dryer. As I booked too late, my boyfriend... more

The hotel is in what seems to be a sketchy area as first glance, but looks are deceiving - the worst you'll run into is a homeless person or two sleeping on the sidewalk nearby, if even that. The hotel is 5 minutes away from the Plaka, Syntagma, and a few blocks from Ermou street - the main shopping street... more

I've been abroad a zillion times before, but this time, it was our first proper "sun-holiday", and went to Zakinthos/Zante. I didn't really know what a sun holiday was, - I thought these things were a lot more exciting, but unfortunately, we ended up in major Karaoke-land Irish bars, English food, Arsenal jersies, no cultural stuff, and undrinkable salty-water on... more

This hotel was in a great location, near Ermou and Monastiraki Sq, w alking distance to everything including Psirri, the Plaka and the Acropolis. We reserved the room over the phone, with a very genial english-speaking receptionist. The rate was 65 euros / night. We arrived late due to a flight delay, and they were holding our room, as expected.... more

Since we knew not what to expect from Athens, we let an agent do all our bookings. We were happy with this choice - desk open 24 hours (we got in after midnight). I think the room rate was around 75 euros per night. PROS: Location is convenient to train station (Monasteraki) and bus (Syntagma). About a 10 min walk... more

Both my husband and I booked into this hotel on May 29, 2007. The hotel is in walking distance to every attraction. It is about 7 mintues from the bus station. I'll address some of the previous posts... Credit Cards: We had no problems paying with our credit card Elevators and Furniture: Both the elevator and furniture have been updated.... more

I enjoyed our stay at Carolina. Rooms are simple but clean and functional, staff is friendly and service minded, they waited ½ hour for us when we were late for breakfast. Balcony was an unexpected bonus. And the location is fabulous, close to everything including our favourite bar two doors from the hotel. more

I had to stay 4 nights at this hotel. The rooms are uncomfortables, the baths are even worst. The A/C did not work. I tried to sleep in a "cold" room with blankets. The staff have not interested with this problem. They gave an electric heater at last. I feeled myself in a getto. I have not had the possibility... more
