The hotel is very centrally located at the Omonoia square with connections to the metro system i.e. easy access to the airport). It is also within 10 minutes walking from Syntagma and Monastiraki. The hotel is rather worn down and old, but is an good budget alternative. Still, slept well in a comfortable bed. The Omonoia area is slightly seedy... More

We stayed two nights at Ilion hotel and it met our expectations. Room was clean and of an adequate size with good airconditionning and great free wi-fi ( which is always essential for us).

The Hotel was okay for what you paid. The Staff is friendly and helpful. The air and internet are great. However do not walk to any tourist areas. It was not enjoyable. After the first attempt we just took cabs each day. The Hotel is located just on the edge of a run down part of town. More

The location was very unsettling for me as... More

We did not arrive to Athens airport until a little after midnight. The subway was closed and the cabs were on strike. We took the bus to the hotel (had to walk about a mile around 1 am in the morning but we felt very safe-some newsstands were open and there were a few people out and about). We stayed... More

Ilion hotel was a pleasant surprise. Its location is perfect for sightseeing. All major sites of interest are within walking distance, so we never used the metro which, by the way, was only few steps away. Rooms were clean and tidy. We 've really enjoyed the balcony with a view to Lycabettus Hill. Free wi-fi in the room worked very... More

I stayed in the hotel for a week in July / August 2011. I was positively impressed by the cleanliness of my room, and the helpfulness of the staff. There was also a full choice for the breakfast buffet. I had been concerned about the hotel before travelling, having read some of the comments on this website. Omonia Square is... More
