Hotels in Exarcheia

"Ideally located 2 mins from the Metro and 20 mins walk from the beautiful Acropolis. Featuring a nicely designed rooftop bar and resteraunt with panoramic views; only The Wyndham Hotel impinging on the view to the Acropolis. Food / drink was reasonably priced and had a great selection of dishes including Vegetarian choices; also an excellent choice of wines and cocktails. Nevertheless, even at quiet times, Service is 'unhurried'... The Deluxe Room is / was barely adequate. I don't know what filters and lenses they used to 'big-up' my room and Shower-room. The shower-room: Clean but barely functional. The corner shower cubicle was not as shown and as a barely 70cm × 70cm equilateral triangle; actually washing yourself is challenging. On more than one occasion I knocked the shower thermostat control to either freezing or scalding hot. If you weigh more than 70kg it will be dangerously tight for you. The hotel itself has a shallow rooftop pool; sun lounger etc; a gym and decent lobby area. However, from day one, we were missing amenities such as barhrobes. On day 2 we were left with no towels but a complimentary damp cleaning cloth on the bed pillow. It took 2 complaints including 1 in person, for us to finally be brought towels. On a more positive note, the reception staff were pleasant and de-escalatory. Be aware, works were taking place at the hotel during our visit; heavy banging and drilling; from about 645am... Just as well we were up at 7am each day. Breakfast - Superb"

"I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel obligated to be honest here because I rely heavily on accurate reviews when booking hotels—and this one did not live up to what was advertised. First, the bed was incredibly uncomfortable. It honestly felt like sleeping on a cot rather than a proper mattress, which made it very difficult to get any real rest. The bathroom was another major issue. It was extremely small, and the shower was so cramped that you couldn’t move without constantly bumping into the knobs and accidentally turning the water off. It made something as simple as showering frustrating. Several advertised amenities were also missing. There was no TV or hairdryer, despite both being listed online. Additionally, the “airport shuttle” was misleading—it was just a taxi, not a hotel-provided service as implied. The elevator was also shockingly small. It was so tight that my husband and I couldn’t fit together with our luggage—we had to go separately, which was inconvenient and frustrating. The surrounding neighborhood also did not feel safe or welcoming. There was a noticeable amount of graffiti and a visible homeless presence, which gave the area a run-down, uncomfortable vibe. Overall, I find it very hard to believe that the current reviews accurately reflect the reality of this hotel. Based on my experience, I would not stay here again and would not recommend it to others."

"Everything was great I would recommend this hotel to everyone coming to athens."
