Very helpful front desk, good location, good value

Review of Ariston Hotel
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Oct 14, 2014
We stayed at the Hotel Ariston right after disembarking from a week long cruise and arrived fairly early in the morning. At first they had us put our luggage in a back room, but within a few minutes, they had a room ready and we were able to check in. It is located a little north of the city center and the taxi driver charged us about 5 Euros more because of it. But Hotel Ariston is very conveniently located right near the St. Larrisa Metro stop on the red line and we could have easily taken the metro from the cruise port and saved the taxi fare. It was only a few Metro stops to Syntagma Square and a couple more to the Acropolis stop. The front desk was VERY helpful with everything such as checking us in as soon as possible, arranging for a taxi to the airport early the next morning, helping us with sightseeing questions, and answering all of our other questions. The hotel was nicely furnished and clean. We would have preferred a queen bed, but the double was firm and comfortable and that's what they had. The wifi worked great. It was a great value for the price and I would highly recommend it.

Friendly greeting on arrival. We were on the 5th floor. The room smelt of smoke even though it was a non-smoking room. The hotel is less than 4 minutes to the main station of Larissa, we were catching the 8.27 to Kalambaka, as well as the metro which can take you to Syntagma Square.
The breakfast, although basic, was welcome before we set off for the station.

This is on the main road and opposite the rail tracks so expect some noise.

Excellent value, location.

We stayed here again at end of July 2014 and found it as always very clean, the staff friendly and helpful with adequate English language skills. Location across from Larissa Station and the metro subway is very convenient. There are very good restaurants nearby as well.

Room tip: We prefer corner rooms for the layout and space.

it's definitely a worthy hotel for its value and location.room is clean and tidy (looks brand new). the staffs are kind and helpful. it's located next to the metro/subway and opposite to the train station (both 5 min walk). it's also just 4/5 stations away from the main attraction (acropolis/syntagma square).

We stayed in this hotel Spring 2014. We had a nice room pretty high up which was nice because of the nearby traffic. All was in perfect order. The people at the reception were very helpful. The price is very moderate. There are excelent connections with downtown but all is easy to walk too. We would definitely go back there.

Room tip: We enjoyed a roomy corner room in one of the higher floors .

Well furnished modern hotel, Our group of four had a great week, at Ariston. Most welcoming reception team, Panos, Mattna and Sofia helped us with planning our daily sightseeing and were helpful in many ways besides with a charm and efficiency. Modern Lifts, Larissa Metro is closeby and few eating places within walking distance and best places accessible by metro. I would choose this to come again and again.

Room tip: Noise level goes down in upper floors
