We had 3 nights at the Central Hotel on the first floor. You'd be doing well to find a better location. It's in easy walking distance to all of the historical sites, you've got a great selection of shopping and restaurants almost at your door step and you've got 2 metro stations within 5 to 10 mins walk. The hotel... More

My friend and I spent 5 nights at the Central Hotel in Athens. The staff that we had contact with were excellent. They helped us with restaurant selections, where to find electrical convertors, internet issues and various other questions that we had. Our room and bathroom was extremely small, but clean and well decorated. The buffet breakfast was a great... More

I did a lot of research before coming to Athens and ended up booking Central Athens Hotel because of its price, location, and breakfast. We took the train from the airport to Syntagma square and the walk from the station to the hotel is probably 5 minutes. So close! We walked all over Plaka, to the Acropolis, and to the... More

Minutes walk from all the restaurants & close to the Acropolis, museum, & central square for the bus or metro to/from the airport & port. Friendly night desk - I arrived at 01:30. View from back windows to the Acropolis is a nice extra. Breakfast basic - no bacon :( - but acceptable given proximity of alternatives. Shame rooftop bar... More

This is a great hotel in central Athens which we (family of 5) stayed in for 2 nights on our way home after 2 weeks on Agistri island. It's a very shiny, businesslike and yes, characterless hotel - but it was spotless, efficient and comfortable. It's main attractions are it's location in the Plaka district 5 minutes from all the...
