A nice hotel on a busy road

It’s a nice, if slightly dated hotel, centrally located but on a busy stretch of road so not quite the picturesque Athenian resort, however it is more than fine for business travel, just be aware there are no irons in the rooms.

Nice family stay

Nice family stay at Zafolia Hotel. The family room we stayed in was essentially 2 connected rooms so we had lots of space, 2 bathrooms and a balcony - which was great. The pool on the rooftop was also lovely (albeit the water was a bit cold.) The staff were very nice and helpful. The hotel is a bit dated though and the location is about 35-40 minute walk from the city center so we ended up taking lots of taxi rides (about 5-7 EUR to get to or back from the city center)

Lovely hotel lobby. Busy street but main intersection in Athens. Need taxi/transit/car to get to sites but doable. Our a/c was not really working well and although changed our room it was to a smaller room, not an executive room like we booked. A/c no better. They did provide a fan which made sleeping bearable in the scorching weather. Although staff were accommodating, perhaps upgrading room to a better room would have been a good choice for customer satisfaction. Breakfast, bar and pool bar good. Pool deep and getting in/out difficult for older/younger folks. No shallow end. Overall the hotel is a good choice if a/c improved

Be prepared for large groups

This hotel caters to large groups. This is our 4th time here. Several groups of students were there at the same time. Noisy, unsupervised, locked up elevators by pushing all buttons, making it difficult for those of us who needed to use it. Staff did what they could. Wish adults in charge of group were more proactive.
