The Vault Athens

Right down town

It’s a decent hotel, probably more like a 3 star place than the 4 stars it claims to be. The good: Book this place for the location, it is unbeatable! We were able to walk everywhere and there are tons of options for food, drinks, shopping, etc. on your doorstep. The bad: The area is very noisy at night so bring earplugs. The room is very noisy with the aircon, the pipes, electricity humming. Bring earplugs! The ugly: The daily cleaning left a lot to be desired. We noticed they weren’t cleaning the floors at all or giving us clean mugs or glasses. The room itself was spacious and comfortable but in need of some maintenance. Scuffed paint, loose plugs… that sort of thing. Small improvements would make huge difference, like having wooden hangers instead of wire ones that are bent out of shape or refreshing the paint.

Room was lovely and clean, staff was excellent - breakfast was great!. Excellent area close to all things within walking distance

This is a “best kept secret“ nestled in a narrow storefront on a one-way street in the middle of Athens. What a gem to find this hotel. Yes it’s an older building, but it’s been renovated in the last few years and there’s even an elevator so you don’t have to bring luggage up the winding staircase.
