My sister and I arrived at the Polis Grand after taking a ferry to Athens from one of the islands. The gentleman at the front desk was extremely rude and condescending when we arrived. The cafe in the restaurant is open until 11 pm, so we went downstairs at 10 pm to eat there. The same rude man at the... more

Unfortunately I think most hotels in Athens in this price range have the same problem: the location. The hotel is great! Very clean and modern, the best breakfast we had all trip and friendly and helpful staff. However, the location is pretty bad. The neibourhood is ruff and every time we told a greek person the street we were staying... more

We have spent 3 nights for Easter in this hotel. They gave us room 803 which has a beautiful panorama of the Acropolis and Licabetus Hill. The room was nice and clean, the breakfast was very good and the staff very helpful. It was a wonderful stay. Thank You! more

The Polis Grand Hotel is certainly not how it is made out to be on the hotel's website or in its brochure. However, it does have its positive aspects - including the wonderful views of the Acropolis. The lobby is tiny, and has very little room for a 4* star hotel. The reception is reasonably helpful if not a little... more

I found this hotel on website and then booked it through Pacific Travel (have 24-hr counter in Athens Airport). The location is near Omonia Station (about 3-min walk), not easy to find at first but it's close to McDonald's. Right next the hotel there is a supermarket and fast-food shop which is great. The lobby is small, but the interior... more

We paid $431.70 for three nights in a double occupancy room in May at the Polis Grand. This was one of the better rates we found for an Athens hotel that had neutral/okay reviews. We found cheaper ones that sounded far scarier, and I can't even imagine what that would have been like. The hotel was fine, everything seemed clean... more

The hotel itself was fine - good 3 star standard. Room small but clean and comfortable. Nice view of floodlit Acropolis from rooftop bar/restaurant. Pleasant breakfast room/ restaurant/lounge area on 1st floor. Food good and staff very helpful. The hotel is only 150m or so from the Metro at Omonia Square BUT it is on a seedy street in a... more

I stayed at the Polis Grand on 3 separate occasions during my recent visit to Greece in June. The main plus point about the hotel would be the good location to the subway and shops. Polis Grand is located in Omonia,a favourite hangout for many undesirable elements and you tend to feel a little insecure walking outside if you get... more

Stayed here in mid May. The staff and the location of the hotel are good because its close to many things including the subway. One block away from the hotel are many restaurants and McDonalds. Also the subway is one block away. Its very easy to use and convenient to get to all the tourist areas. About the hotel: The... more

The reviews for this hotel looked good so my husband & I were really surprised & disappointed by the quality of this hotel. We stayed for 7 nights in early May 2008. The room was supposed to be "non-smoking" but everything stank of fags, even the bedding - not nice! When I got home & unpacked all my clothes reeked... more
