Small Funny World Athens - Hostel in Athens

Exceptional humanity and world-class service!
I cannot praise Ergon House enough.
Due to extreme unforeseen circumstances and airspace closure in my country, I was unable to make it to my reservation.
Despite having a non-refundable booking, the hotel team showed incredible empathy and integrity.
They went above and beyond to coordinate a full refund, proving that they truly care about their guests as human beings, not just as booking numbers.
I am already planning my next stay here and will book directly with them.
A hotel with such a big heart is rare to find.
Thank you, Ergon House!

I passed by this restaurant and immediately decided to have lunch here. I learned that it is a very interesting business compound that joins restaurant, market and hotel. It is very huge and very popular. I didn't have reservation so I got the sitting seats near the window. I ordered smoked cod fish and cod roe, both are very delicious, especially the cod roe. It is very soft and foamy, with well balanced taste of Salt and smoking. The quantity is generous and with the very special bread I even couldn't eat all of them. And for main dish I ordered Caesar salad and fried squid, both are delicious. Then I did some shopping at the market, where I bought nice olive oils and pistachio nuts. I do like this idea and I would like to visit it again!

We chose ERGON House Athens for the Athens leg of our Honeymoon last August. We were referred to ERGON House by a local chef/restaurant owner here in the United States. We are so grateful for his recommendation as it was the perfect place to stay as a newly married couple who loves food.

We chose the Medium size room as we knew that we would be spending less time lounging in Athens and more time exploring. The Medium size room was the perfect size for us. We found the beds to be comfortable and there was ample space to store our belongings for two nights. Even though we stayed on the same floor as the check in desk, we did not find noise to be an issue at all.

The location was spectacular as we were able to walk to all of the sites of Athens that we were interested in seeing. We were close to The Acropolis, Plaka, Monastiraki, and countless restaurants and bars. The only ride we needed was a car service getting to and from the airport. While Ergon house offered to assist with these rides, we decided to book them privately ahead of time.

There is a small gym that was nothing spectacular but got the job done to get a quick workout in. This did not bother us as we certainly got enough steps in exploring Athens.

The absolute best part of our stay at ERGON House Athens was the complimentary breakfast. The breakfast was absolutely incredible. The poached eggs on a bagel with Greek yogurt was unlike any dish we have ever had - we day dream of it often!! Also phenomenal was the pancakes and spanakopita. We also asked for fresh fruit each morning. Each day started off on the right food after such a great breakfast here!! We also stopped at the ERGON Bake House across the street for pastries, which were equally as good!! Not to mention, we loved going to the rooftop for a cocktail at the end of the night after a great day of exploring!!

We would absolutely recommend ERGON House Athens to anyone traveling to Athens!! When we have the opportunity to return to Athens, we will not look anywhere else for a great stay!

An exceptional stay in the heart of Athens - it’s a must if you’re a foodie!

Ergon House Athens is a truly special place. The design is thoughtful and warm, perfectly balancing contemporary style with Greek identity. The entire staff is incredibly kind and welcoming, offering a level of hospitality that feels genuine and personal.

The hotel’s signature scent is unforgettable, carried through to the room via beautiful locally made shampoo and shower gel. Cleanliness is impeccable throughout.

I have been traveling for many years and have dined in several Michelin-starred restaurants, yet the breakfasts and food at Ergon House are truly unmatched. An atmosphere so inviting that leaving the hotel is genuinely difficult.

Highly recommended - I will come back!
