Loved our stay here! We reserved the 2 bedroom apartment which is just up the block from reception. Perfect for our family. Small refrigerator, microwave, table, glassware, plates, utensils, kitchenette, 2 bedrooms with comfortable beds, spacious bathroom, nice sitting area, great hot shower. Hotel wifi works there too. The recommended hotel restaurant was a perfect spot to wind down and enjoy the sunset. Right across from Larissa station so super convenient. Free luggage storage while we toured the Acropolis before checking in. Nice grocery store nearby. Highly recommend the Ariston Hotel.

Nous avons pris la « suite » avec 2 chambres. Tout était défraîchi, lit inconfortable, douche avec moisissures. Seul avantage, à 2 pas de la gare et des autobus en direction des Météores….et pas cher.

Reasonable family apartment

Great place for family of 5 or even 6 to stay at that doesn’t break the bank and is close to metro. It’s hard to find one room accommodations in Europe for larger families, so this was a good solution. It is a suite, separate from hotel but it’s quiet and comfortable. The bathroom is a bit dodgy but the shower is strong and the hot water is hot! There are A/C units in the two bedrooms, so we had to leave doors open at night to ensure everyone got some air throughout the apartment.
