The staff was excellent but the hotel didn't have laundry or a gym as advertised. Elevators were scary and need a makeover. Some of the noises from outside were unnerving as the area has many drug users and prostitutes in the area.
Front desk staff was always helpful, especially Amiran, who always patiently answered our questions and tried to give us information and assistance. The breakfast left a LOT to be desired, but at least it was included. The room was spotless, bathroom tiny and the air conditioning worked very well.
The staff was great especially the guy that worked day shift. He had them open breakfast early for us and walked us 2 blocks to where our bus was leaving for our tour. Breakfast was very good and comfortable room and close to attractions.
The hotel is very great for what it is. As two students travelling on a budget, we really liked it. The neighbourhood is a little rough, but for the price it's understandable. The breakfast was filling, but just make sure you time it well since the dining area can fill up quickly. All and all if you would like a short stay in Athens at a reasonable price next to a metro connection, it's a solid choice.
Athens Choice is suitable for a quick, budget-friendly stay if you’re not expecting much beyond the basics. The location is definitely the highlight, close to hop-on/hop-off bus stops and surrounded by plenty of great food options.The staff were genuinely kind and extremely welcoming, which was a refreshing touch and one of the better aspects of our stay. Unfortunately, the breakfast didn’t live up to the hype in other reviews. It was served cold, and the boiled eggs looked like they’d been made the day before. We ended up grabbing something nearby in the square. Overall, if you're just passing through and prioritize location over comfort, it does the job. But don’t come expecting a full 3-star experience.
Easy to get to and from the trains. Staff super friendly. Asked for restaurant recommendations and we were never disappointed.
It’s quiet area at night so had no problem sleeping but the beds were a little harder than I like. That would be the only negative.
Basic rooms clean but somewhat small. Area is a bit loud at night. Close to metro. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was a nice continental spread. Overall good value for price
The hotel is very clean and the staff is wonderful. Breakfast is nice. The hotel is located very close to the metro and good restaurants a 5 minutes walk. The metro takes you to Acropolis/Parthenon and Greek people are very nice. The only thing is the area around the hotel is full of graffiti and it’s dirty but all Athens is like that. We saw 5 star hotels areas the same. However, police headquarters is 200 meters from the hotel. We were told homeless people never bother anyone and the area is safe. We felt safe all the time even walking at night.
Excellent customer service from the front desk, very knowledgeable, caring and nice, specially Ross.
Very tiny room. Bed sheets twin size for a queen bed. The bathroom is very tiny. The shower is a big joke. No shower head hanger. To take a “shower” you have to be holding the shower head with one hand and soap yourself with just one hand. No curtains in the shower, obviously the water splashes everywhere making a big pool to be standing. The “bar” just exists in pictures. Rooms no soundproof. You can hear a pin drop. Elevator just for one person and a small carryon at a time. Bad neighborhood. No recommended at all!
