Superb place really nice staff and clean facilities, very good location near to the vibrant Exarchia neighbourhood and not too far from a trip to Monostraki or anywhere in Central Athens. Loved my stay and the staff were incredibly friendly and can not be understated how kind they were. would 100% recommend to any travellers heading to Athens!

Had a great stay at this hostel, met some really nice people during the happy hour with free wine and popcorn. It was a 15-20 minute walk to the city centre, which was doable. Breakfast was basic but good. overal had a great stay

Honestly, could not fault the staff whatsoever. The staff were super kind and friendly and very helpful. They were interesting to hang out with, which they often did with the guests. The hostel beds were super comfy and the building itself offered a very cool and chilled out atmosphere. My fiance and I loved staying here and would definitely recommend it and will go back again! The hostel offered free breakfast and happy hour with wine!! Thanks for a great time!! -Mike and Lori

The staff is incredible. If they can help, they help. Nothing is too much. It's a weird time now with the corona. They were super flexible with our staying dates. I loved the neighborhood aswell. Against what other people wrote in other reviews. If you have an alternative vibe yourself this is the place to be! After the corona crisis, I'll for sure come back to this place. Efharisto Poli! And hope to be a guest again.

The hostel and the rooms are clean and ok. The bunk beds are very comfortable and conveniently set with a wooden structure which stores stuff, has a plug and gives you more privacy - that was nice. Staff is nice too. However location really isn't great - it's a 20 min walk from center and major sights, kind of desolate and also in a shady area of Athens. Rooms are also not very well insulated from noise. Had a terrible night sleep since I could hear people talking and doors shutting on the inside of the hostel and all the noise from the outside even with doors and windows shut. bathroom was cleaned regularly but the shower did not have a door so would flood the entire floor and be super messy for the next person. Would not recommend staying there.

The hostel was ok. The staff was nice as well. I didn't like the location, it was a desolated area with lots of graffiti (nothing against graffiti but this was more of a rebel type of graffiti). I saw police in the area while I was walking,standing at the corners of the streets. The hostel is very clean and I liked the fact that we had our toilet and shower in our room. Breakfast is simple and edible. The city center isn't far,it's walking distance.

I loved my stay at Nubian Hostel. Staff are friendly, helpful and made me feel at home. Everything is very clean, comfy beds. The free breakfast is simple but good. There are a few nice cafes located nearby the hostel and it's only a short walk to the major tourist attractions. Would highly recommend - one of the best hostels out there!

The location was good, close to the city centre, you could walk to Syntagma square in about 20 mins. Friendly and helpful staff. We had our private room so dont really know about the shared rooms. Only stayed there one night but was ok.
