Best Three Star Hotels in Athens

This is an extremely nice hotel situated in a perfect location. Our stay and review are based on a Superior room You would be hard pressed to find an Athens hotel in a better location. You are right in the middle of all the action with shops and restaurants nearby. You are spoilt for choice. Although in a busy area we found the excellent double- glazed doors/windows kept any noises out and it was not an issue at all. Our Superior room came with a kettle and tea/coffee making facilities although that is not listed on their website. It may be worth e-mailing them if this is important to you. There was air-con but in March there was no need to make use of it so we cannot comment on its efficiency. The toilet/bathroom came with those tiny bottles of shampoo and body wash which we refuse to use on environmental grounds so we brought our own and used that. There was a sign saying that if the used towels were hung up then it was assumed that we were happy to reuse them. The cleaners replaced them daily regardless. The rooms were kept very clean. This hotel has much going for it. We grabbed a deal here at a very attractive price which included breakfast. The breakfast arrangements were in a fairly small area but we felt that a good selection was provided considering the space limitations. Plenty of fresh vegetable choices and delicious too. The Tomatoes and Cucumber just tasted so much better than we are used to. Cereals, bread, cakes, fruit and coffee from a machine. We looked forward to our breakfast every morning and didn’t grow tired of it. Minor gripes (being very picky). The over the bath shower was a mini battle in so much that it was prone to shoot water out onto the floor if you weren’t being careful. It could have been better but all we had to do was to adjust our showering habits and all was ok in the end. Our room had a balcony facing out to the street below. It would have been nice for a couple of chairs out there rather than just a large pot plant and the air-con unit for company. I did notice that no other balconies on other building had chairs out so perhaps that is just the Athens way. We had a Fridge in our room. Very welcome. A very close mini supermarket was the cheapest place we could find to buy water. E0.39 for 1.5 litres as I recall. We loved this hotel. All the staff were so nice and so helpful. I can’t remember all of their names but Irena and Eva come to mind. They helped make our stay wonderful. It had a curiously homely feel about the place. March time was a great time of the year as it was a pleasant day time temperature with it getting a bit chilly in the evenings. You could still dine outdoors but with a patio heater nearby. We loved Athens and have decided to return next March with the flights already booked. We will stay at the Plaka Hotel again. 5 stars from us

Excellent value for money hotel in a fantastic location just a few minutes walk from Athens’ most visited spots. The staff were friendly and helpful, the room was clean and spacious and the breakfast buffet was fantastic. No tea/coffee making facilities but I don’t know if that’s normal in Athens, but there is a fridge and great air conditioning. Then roof top bar in their sister hotel Plaka is well worth a visit. Highly recommend.

Chose this hotel due to it’s proximity to Syntagma Square and the X95 bus stop (we arrived in Athens at 1am from the airport). A very warm welcome despite the time, efficient check in and straight to our room. Hadn’t expected an Acropolis view but got one which was a nice touch for my partner as it was his first trip to Greece. Nice clean room and decent bathroom (something which can be challenging in Athens). We only booked for that one night, but check out was efficient and polite and they stored our bags for us so we had time to look around before moving on to our final destination.

Absolutely loved this hotel. Although it doesn't look like a hotel when you arrive and the street it's on looks dodgy, it was fabulous. The rooms were clean, spacious and quirky. The best feature of the hotel was the rooftop terrace and bar. Absolutely AMAZING views of the Acropolis from there both at day and night. Would highly recommend

The hotel is good especially for resting purposes only, their breakfast food was good, staff are friendly and very helpful to our eeeds

My second visit to Athens, this hotel was in a perfect location near everything we wanted to visit. Breakfast was good, staff were amazing and the hotel was very secure after a certain time the automatic doors locked and you could only get in with your key card. We booked the junior suite with the acropolis view it did not disappoint. They had shutters on the doors and windows so the sun didn’t hit you first thing in the morning. The cleaners was amazing they had been cleaning our room twice a day so we left them at tip at end of our visit. Highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting this beautiful city

We stayed for 2 nights mid-August in a landmark view room with balcony. The bedroom was spotlessly clean with a really comfortable bed. Balcony was huge with view to the acropolis. Staff really friendly and nothing too much trouble. The location is amazing - on a really vibrant, safe street in Athens with a short walk to the square and market. We absolutely loved it. The roof top bar is fab for cocktails/sundowners and to soak up the atmosphere of this vibrant city. The breakfast was top notch - so much choice and plentiful. Very good value for money. We have already booked again for next year!

Great location，near the metro，price for foods and drinks aroud here are so good，don't missed this beautiful 360 degree great view rooftop swimming pool and poolside restaurant，breakfast is one of the best for such price hotel。

I took the last room available, a single room, and was not looking forward to a small room but very pleasantly surprised. The room was compact but very nicely furnished. These rooms have been modernised recently and was absolutely perfect for my needs for a one-night stay in Athens. Excellent shower and air conditioning. I slept very well, the only negative comment would be that I was woken very early by the noise of staff getting breakfast ready. The hotel is quietly situated in a side street very close to the Acropolis entrance and just a short walk down the hill from the city centre tour bus drop off. It's also just a few minutes walk from the Acropolis metro stop. The roof terrace has beautiful views and you can buy a drink from the downstairs bar and take it up to the roof. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful and I would definitely recommend Acropolis View Hotel for single travellers.

This hotel is highly recommend for both its LOCATION and very efficient/PROFESSIONAL staffs at reception! From Monastiraki a 7min walk / frm Syntagma 3mins walk! Buffet breakfast; EXCELLENT! I arrived on the day where the public road was closed due to an annual street demonstration, not to mention the fatigue I’m encountering after traveling for 3 months BUT the great hospitality at Arethusa made everything pleasant. Rooftop terrace at Lvl 9 gives a view of Acropoli, PERFECT! Room is well equipped, SPOTLESSLY CLEAN! Standing shower has a great water pressure.Extra comforter is provided in cupboard which is very helpful during this winter. A/C heater in room works well too! Arethusa Hotel deserves a better grade for its excellent service/quality! I am glad i managed to book a room with them! Highly recommend to both solo travellers or couple, street is quiet/safe in the night. THANK YOU TO ALL THE STAFFS OF ARETHUSA!
