Not the easiest of places to find at night as the street sign is covered up.. I stayed in a 3 bed-ensuite, the room was clean, the shower was good although you do have to pay for a towel (1 euro).. also on the downside was the fact that this hostel describes the rooms as having lockers, but they dont... more

I booked at Athens Backpackers for two nights, and ended up staying five I liked it so much. I was expecting a dive, what with the old reputation Athens has but was surprised. The room was big, modern and had a great view. Even better was the location, we walked everywhere and obly took the metro when we couldn;t be... more

Room rates rather steep, definately the least attractive hostel i've stayed at in Greece. Obnoxious staff. Hostels only pro is the location. But actually, Athens has a great metro system and takes you anywhere you want to be within minutes, so i would have either chosen a cheaper place - or a nicer one, for the same price. more

First of all, the receptionists are rude and behave like they're unhappy you even show up. Secondly, the premises are in 2 several locations or so. When i went to the first counter, they told me to make payment and receive the key at the other location - where my room was. Getting there, the staff told me i had... more

I booked a place in the main hostel, but was sent to Athens Studios instead. I was a little irritated at first as my luggage was very heavy, but fortunately the Studios were very close to the main building. The day staff were very knowledgeable and friendly, though the night staff were not. Breakfast was very basic and the rooftop... more

We started our trip to Greece by staying in the Backpackers Hostel. easy to find location and excellent place to visit the Acropolis from as well as other historical sites. But I didnt rate it as value for money at nearly at 28 euros each per night, it came to the same cost as a 3 star hotel we stayed... more

We stayed in Athens Studios sister company of the Hostel for 1 week. The location was great. The staff was helpful, but the one bedroom apt was a bit too crowded for 4 adults. Also the kitchen lacked a bit on utensils and such. We realized during our stay that the apartments differ in size and layout, and we just... more

Our family of 2 adults and 4 children stayed here in July. When we book into a hotel we always need 2 rooms and so when I discovered the Athens Backpackers had an apartment which slept 6 for 140 euro a night, I was delighted. Our 5 star children however were not so excited, but with our low expectation we... more

the rooms were dirty, the bathrooms were disgusting, the water was basically dripping from the shower head and the doors didn't lock. the lockers were tiny. the kitchen was not in working condition. the air conditioner barely worked. the guide for the walking tour called in sick 10 mins after the tour was supposed to start. the only thing decent... more
