Airotel Parthenon

8/10 Good

"Location is perfect, walk 1 minute and you are at the base of The Acropolis and can see the Parthenon. Big Bus stop and many restaurants and shops literally right around the corner. Our fave restaurant was Athina... try the spaganaki appetizer, pork souvlaki and moussaka. We did end up with one of the older rooms, but it was clean and comfortable. Breakfast selection was great and staff very friendly and attentive."

101 Adrianou Luxury Urban Stay

8/10 Good

"The staff at this hotel were so friendly and helpful. I would stay here just for the wonderful staff. The location in Plaka makes it an easy walk to nearly everything you want to see in Athens. Even though it is on a very busy street, the room was very quiet. My only negative is the bathroom setup. There is no door to the bathroom so privacy is a challenge. There is a 2 sink setup which is great, a shower stall with a curtain and then a toilet room but the door to this area has shaded glass so if you are standing at the sink, you can see anyone using the toilet. Not ideal for a family with grown children but fine for a couple or possibly young children."
