The place where the hotel is located is absolutely the worst place in Athens. It was reflecting the economic and political situation of Greece unfortunately. Drug sellers, thieves and prostitutes were everywhere. More

Once inside the Ionis Hotel, it is a very pleasant place. The rooms are large, with balconies to sit and watch the weird goings on in the street below. The breakfasts are a delight. The staff are helpful and the rooms are clean. Sadly, the street in which the hotel stands is seedy, even by Omonia Square standards! I'd still... More

We have really enjoyed staying in the Hotel Ionis and we have been here for a couple of weeks now. OK the streets around are unpleasant, but once inside the hotel is clean, friendly and excellent value. The breakfast is very good. The location is the major drawback and late at night there is a feeling of 'running the gauntlet'... More

The room was well cleaned and linen changed daily. The front desk was very helpful. You feel a bit unsafe since you can see the prosstitudes and drug addicts roam around. Otherwise the place is well worth of money. More

So i went ahead... More

I recently stayed at this hotel. The location admittedly was not that fantastic, just like any hotel in downtown area of any major city in the world. However the metro was just 3 minute walk away and all major places of interest were totally easily accessible. The reception was wonderfully friendly and helpful and went the extra mile to take...
