Accueil très chaleureux dans un hôtel au calme à deux pas de l’Acropole

Chaleur et bonne humeur de l’accueil, l’emplacement exceptionnel au cœur de Plaka, à quelques pas de l’acropole

La qualité de la sdb, vraiment vieillotte et peu pratique (rideau de douche trop haut qui éclabousse tout le sol)

Great location and wonderful staff made for a great stay.

Close to everything all in walking distance,old school vibe to it. Staff were friendly and accommodating.

Shower and toilet in one but manageable. Could be loud with people coming and going.

Acropolis House.- Quaint

The hotel is very well situated , walking distance from Acropolis and great neighborhood for shopping and food. It has clean and comfortable rooms with a breakfast option in the hotel itself. The best aspect of the hotel is the hospitality of the family that runs the hotel and the staff. Thank you Emmanuelle, Enea, Adonis and the other staff including the very cheerful cleaning staff.

The bathrooms could have been a little bigger

Perfect for short trips to descover Athens.

The house is old and need some rénovation but well placed. It has the vintage charm and atmosphere as in a mouvie. Thé staff was very helpfull and kind.

A little bit noisy when sleeping with open windows.

Lovely hotel at the Center of Athens

It is at the center of the City. Walkable distance to all tourist attractions.The reception staff was really good, the lady in the morning shift was very welcoming and friendly, her special cake was so delicious

Rooms were quite cold but they provided with extra heater next day

Stay central Athens

It is what it is for a 2 star. If you're not expecting 4/5 star, it's fine. Despite some criticism, would stay again. Great location. Good WiFi Allowed to store luggage at no charge. People nice, spoke good English.

Bathroom (wetroom) too small, shower had to be handheld, door wouldn't close. Room smaller than expected, no working catch on window or shutters. Steet noise as result. Breakfast not great, but adequate. Power outage, my floor, last day, no attempt to remedy before I left (to be fair was early). Unable to use shower before I left, as no light in bathroom.

Very good

Beautiful 19th c. building! Clean and at a nice central area but without proper sound proofing.

The only real negative part was breakfast. Really poor quality. The bathroom was outside the room. We stayed for just one night so that was not a problem but it could be for someone who wants to spend more time.

Enjoyable we would stay there again.

The location couldn’t be better. The continental style breakfast was simple but good and served quickly. The Acropolis House has an old-aged charm which had a Greek authenticity that you cannot get in a modern hotel. Family run, friendly helpful manager and staff.

Good

Location is great to Plaka, central to shopping area, and close to bus stop. Bed and pillows are pretty comfortable and clean linen and room service everyday. "Hired staff" are very nice and try very hard to help and seem over worked at times.

Common area furniture and room bedspreads are drab and not updated. Stairs are narrow and can be treacherous and there is no help with luggage. Air condition doesn't work. No basic creature comforts. Bathrooms are narrow and shower water runs all over the floor and if you turn in the shower. the shower curtain sticks to you. Bathrooms have meldew smell. No one on night duty from11pm-7am & no smoke detectors, alarms or sprinklers. I did see a fire extinguisher. Signs on room doors in Greek small English statement said " call front desk if you smell smoke". Don't think a person will wake up and call someone that is not there during the night. TV Greek stations only functioning stations. Guests are asked to limit breakfast to 20". I was asked last night to take boxed breakfast next day and come early for coffee as 2 groups were coming in. I agreed but am insulted as I am also a paying guest and many time repeat guest even if I am a solo guest. Breakfast is fair. There is an adjacent room with a table where extra place settings can be set up. Comfort and safety have been significantly reduced to reduce costs. I will never stay there again.

Great location; good for a return trip. A Rick Steve's Guidebook choice

This family-run small hotel has a great location for returning Athens visitors in the Plaka, close to the X95 bus to/from the airport, right down-town and a somewhat short walk to the Acropolis. The Host is very nice and the hotel has an interesting history, located inside of a historic mansion. See the Rick Steve's write up for more info. Our room (301) a standard (no superiors were available). It did have three beds, but we would have preferred just two as it was extremely cramped. There is no elevator, so be prepared to lug your bags up. Breakfast is adequate. If you are a tourist first time in Athens, you won't get a view, have a roof-top terrace or have a balcony (at least in our room), so I'm rating it a 6 or 7 for first time Athens tourists, but a 7-8 for returning visitors who just need a great location and a nice host.

Superb

Very good location, decent breackfast (for me), helpful staff and very nice balcony.

There was dust in the room, but they cleaned when I pointed it out. No reception after midnight, in case you stay later, you need to ask for a key to the building door.

charming hotel close to everything

lovely personnel who will help and advice you with anything. great location in little street, walking distance from acropolis, monastriraki, stadium, national garden, many restaurants, public transport hub (Syntagma square). Rooms are basic and outdated but that is part of the charm of such old building. And sufficently equiped (good and silent airco). Breakfast is basic but does the job.

some matrasses quite rigid. take-away-breakfast nice option for early visit to acropolis, but very basic.
