Thank you very much for your review. The area round the hotel becomes more and more popular, now days, with a lot of nice restaurants, wine bars, cafes that add more points of interest to the already existing most famous commercial street of the city. The Acropolis view from Thea Terrace Bar is always beautiful so make sure that you will be back in Central Athens Hotel, soon.

“Great view”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 14, 2013

The staff were ok and neutral, nothing special. The rooms are very nice, clean and modern, we had our view directly at Acropolis. The small street around the hotel doesn't seem safe, but you have to go through them to hit the main street. Very close to the parlament too. The breakfast had some different varieties and were quite good. The aircondition at my friends room didn't get any effect. After telling the staff 2 times about the lack, they didn't do anything about it. The best thing was sitting in the jacuzzi at the evening and looking at Acropolis.

Thank you very much for taking time to make a comment on our hotel. It is very easy to access on foot, from Central Athens hotel, Acropolis, Plaka, the Parliament, the National Garden, and the main commercial street of the city – which is next to us - as well as many other places of interest. The area around the hotel is quite popular, now days, as it develops to the center of Athens’ nightlife with many new restaurants and wine bars. As an alternative, you may always choose to enjoy your drink in Thea Terrace Bar or sit in the jacuzzi with a spectacular view to the Acropolis and we will make our best so that our staff - which is usually positively highlighted in our customers’ comments – will serve upon your expectations. We hope we will see you back in Central Athens hotel soon.

“excellent hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 28, 2012

My friend and I arrived in Athens after catching the bus from the airport, We were told by a local taxi owner that the hotel was nearby so we decided to walk there. Well after a very hot walk down the cobbled roads in the heat we eventually arrived at the Central Hotel.It is really a nice hotel in the middle of Athens. It is within walking distance of the Plaka and Syntagma Square.. The rooftop terrace with its swimming pool, is magnificent, with a stunning view over the Plaka and view of the Acropolis. The staff were indeed helpful and gave us good advice as to where to go and what to see. Breakfast was also a variety of different dishes, catering to everyone's taste. The rooms are airconditioned, so after doing your sightseeing it is a pleasant respite after the heat of the city. There are a number of little taverna's in close proximity. I found my stay here fantastic and after my vacation on the islands, came back to stay one more night. Again I experienced the same wonderful service from the staff who were happy to see me again. Definitely if you are a first time visitor to Athens I would highly recommend a stay here.

We really appreciate your kind words on your nice review about our hotel. Central Athens sure is a good choice during the hot summer months with air-conditioned rooms and spaces and a Jacuzzi in the terrace. Most of our clients find it very interesting to walk around the Plaka's picturesque streets and have lunch or dinner in one of the traditional Greek tavernas nearby. Keep in mind that winter is also great in Athens and our staff will be happy to assist you to have another memorable stay.


We look forward to see you again soon and we all wish you a Happy New Year!

“Fantastic location, view from the window.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 18, 2012

Located at the very center of Athens, Central Hotel is very practical, equipped with an underground private parking place. Location is excellent and the airport shuttle x95 leaves you very close by.Easy wlaking distance of the main square and the Acropolis. The rooftop terrace provided a panoramic view of the Acropolis which at night was romantic.The rooftop jacuzzi is wonderful The Hotel was clean, functional and served our purpose. Breakfast was good. Room was modern with white cotton sheets is nice and clean.Free Internet if you don't have a computer.A beautiful view of the Acroppoli from our room.
I would recommend it to my friends ;-)

Room Tip: Rooms are modern and very clean.

We really appreciate your recommendation to your friends and we hope to see you back in Central Athens Hotel, soon.
