This Central Athens hotel is just below the acropolis in a trendy area and just up the road from the Thisseo Metro station which means it is directly connected to Piraeus harbour via the older Green Line and with just one stop to Monastiraki Station where you can switch to the the Blue Line direct to the Airport. So if... More

I had an excellent 5 day stay at this Hotel. The location is superb, very close to 2 metro-stations (Tisseio and Monesteraki), and in contrast to hotels in Omonia, in a safe, nice, and good neighberhood, close to many taverns and tourist-shops. The service was excellent, and the staff was very helpfull. The idea of the breakfast is typically greek:... More

This hotel's main selling points are its location and its prices. There are few hotels in this area of Athens, which was completely overhauled for the 2004 Olympic games, and turned into a relatively trendy semi-pedestrian area. The many large coffee shops and their outdoor tables are very popular with locals in warmer months, but upscale enough not to become... More

My son and I stayed at the Hotel Phidias for a couple of nights in late May while visiting the sites of Athens. The location was great. We walked to the Acropolis, the Agora, the Plaka, the Temple of Zeus, the Philopappos Hill, and the Roman Forum. The hotel is right on the pedestrian walkway which encircles the Acropolis and...

There are peddlers everywhere on that street as well as a flea market... More

This hotel is definitely a 2-star hotel, but it would rank as one of the best 2-star hotels I've stayed at. So, you get good value for your money. PROS: -free breakfast (toast, cereal, cookies, tea, coffee) -near attractions (across from Ancient Agora; can see the Acropolis lit up at night from front of hotel. Gorgeous!) -near a metro stop...

About 10-15min (uphill) from the port. The rooms are very basic and small, but pretty clean. More

It is extremely well located, you can see the Acropolis from the door, very near Thissio station, near restaurants, supermarkets, etc. The staff was very helpful. More

Great location and the people at the front desk were unbelievably sweet and friendly. Perfect for a night's layover on the way to/from the islands. More
