2 star hotels in Athens

Good hotel not far from the center. The rooms are old, but for one night it is quite suitable. We lived on the 7th floor, view of the Acropolis

We liked how close this property was to the Acropolis and nice restaurants, all with a 30 minute wall or less. However, when our Uber driver dropped us off he warned us not to go out at night because it was not a safe area. On our walks, we saw a lot of things that told us that was probably pretty accurate. The libby of the hotel was pretty nice. You could get specialty coffes, tea, pastries, etc....

How you enjoy your your stay here depends which direction you choose when exiting the hotel.It is essential to turn left then left again and carry on to shops and restaurants.A right turn will take you past what the other reviews have mentioned,and most likely result in a bad review

I am a very frequent traveler , spending 3-6 Months a year in hotels in Australia , Asia, USA and Europe for the past 25 years , Lifetime Platinum Elite Marriott Member, Platinum Accor Member, Gold Hilton Member, by far the most stays being at 5 and 4 star and many, many of these Brands most iconic hotels and locations on a frequent basis. I have become a "value traveler" post Covid 19, that's ok...

Comfortable hotel close to metro and short walk to fantastic dining on the way to Monastiaki Square. Great value, clean room, breakfast available and coffee in the lobby. Friendly staff. I definitely recommend this hotel in the heart of Athens.

The hotel is used to sleep while you are in Athens for a couple of days, the location is complicated, since it is located in an unsafe neighborhood at night and quite abandoned and dirty. Otherwise it is fine.

The location is not far from the center however there are some Shady people standing around in the street near the entrance so for some people may be a little overwhelming the room was good but the washroom shower toilet and so small you have to squeeze in and this I did not like at all but I had already booked and no choice than to stay it is not somewhere you want to Empress anyone

Everything was great except that the single room is too small. There was also one day that was too noisy because they are repairing the doors of all rooms.

Small single room and okay for one night. Who don't like to share your room with others, you can book this

They are excellent in every aspect: location, cleanliness of the rooms, spacious balcony, and everyone from the reception to the housekeeping staff are very friendly and kind people 👌

The hotel itself was okeish, the shower was broken and one of our covers was a little dirty, but the main sheets and the room itself was very clean. We had issues with VERY NOISY NEIGHBORS. You could hear everything from their shouting, hitting and jumping, which only stopped at 4:30 am. We asked the receptionist and he said they would leave that same day. Which was a lie, and of course they were also...

The rooms are new but small. They're close to the metro, but the area is a bit dirty and can be noisy at night.

Room didn’t match the pictures online, bathroom had mould on the roof and was generally average. Mattress dipped in the middle. The reception didn’t let us keep our key which we googled and saw is normal in Europe but after 22 European countries I have never experienced it. Area around the hotel is a bit dodgy but that’s not their fault

Good service and location.. Value for money

Good service and location.. Value for money

The counter service is in place, the location is convenient, and it is close to the subway station! !

The staff are amazing, the cleaner will eventually ignore the do not disturb sign, be careful where you step in the near vicinity of the hotel, drug users about. If you want local food for breakfast head left out of the hotel then left again, a little ways up is a great cafe.

The property was fine. As described and expected given how cheap it is! Good value. However I booked a double bed and got twin beds which was a shame. Otherwise a great stay

Was a great location and great views of the Mediterranean. Was able to sit on the balcony and enjoy the view! If not for that would not recommend this hotel.

Nice location, great sea view, polite and helpful staff, convenient bus stop in front of hotel getting to ferry port in 30 min. Good value for money.

Staying here is inexpensive and on the coast. We started in a large three bedroom with no view which was more expensive than the ocean view. We changed to the ocean view that was wonderful. Unfortunately the beds are not that comfortable but tolerable.

For 50 euros a night with a view of the sea, it was definitely worth it, but I wouldn’t pay more. The interior is very old, and the sink in the bathroom was hanging as if it was going to fall at any moment. One good point is that the check out is at 12 that was very convenient.

The staff were friendly, helpful, and patient with all my questions - they really went above and beyond. They also gave excellent meal recommendations. The AC was excellent, when there wasn’t a sea breeze through the balcony door. The view was magnificent and a gift to wake up to every morning! The bus stop outside the door was convenient. The room, while a little dated, was meticulously clean and...

The location was great. Hotel itself was old and the show had was horrible. Staffs were nice and cooperative. It was expensive for the conditions

A little far from the dock. Service very nice. Friendly staff.

Friendly staff and very helpful

A wonderful, cozy hotel in an aesthetic location. Nearby are restaurants with genuine Greek charm, and the ferry dock is not far away. The staff are friendly, with an exceptional team at the reception. Breakfast is available. Suitable also for long-term stays

There for 1 night to catch the next ferry. Very close to the port. Reception was extremely helpful with guidance on how to reach the port and where our ferry would be.

Excellent location near the port. Great value for money

Only stayed one night but everything was perfect and thanks to Pablo in the reception for everything

The room was ok, clean and comfortable

 I chose this hotel because it said it had Wi-Fi, but I couldn't use it at all. In the end, I had to go to a high-priced restaurant where there was Wi-Fi, which made for an inconvenient stay. It's close to the port.

This was a very basic hotel that needs renovation. The staff was not very helpful but rather impolite. It was OK for one night but I won't return. I do not recoment this hotel to anyone. There are plenty of much better hotels in the area with the same price.

I've been passing through but I've had a good rest

Just stayed one night, the room was clean and nice but the hotel itself isn’t too flash. Did the job and ultimately very happy with the stay no issues

Booked into this hotel by Trip as they had booked me into the wrong hotel- another story- on arrival the woman tried to charge me following trip having emailed me confirmation of payment by them following their blunder with the pervious booking. I got the impression she thought she could make a quick killing due to the confusion and me being in a tired/stressed state due to the booking blunder by...

This quaint appearing hotel is a hidden gem! The short cobblestone walk from the bus stop was a surprise but we made it. The staff were very welcoming and informative. They directed us to a lovely restaurant in walking distance. The food was fabulous. In fact we ate there twice! We forgot our conversion plugs and the happily provided us with two during our stay! I would return to this hotel for another...

The hotel is not far from the port - 15 minutes walk-but you still need a taxi to get to the major passenger cruise line (like Holland America, etc) as the port is huge. Rooms are very clean, and it is in a quiet area. Metro is close by - maybe 7 min walk. The best thing about the hotel is front desk staff of the hotel. They are extremely helpful in everything - like how to buy bus tickets in Athens...

The woman receptionist can be more friendly

Hotel is nice also with the staff. Location is also near the port.

Overall good, but breakfast is not free.

This hotel stands out for several reasons: it is clean, organized, friendly, and serviceable. Additionally, it is centrally located in the city of Piraeus. The bed is comfortable, the bathroom is clean, and the room comes equipped with a coffee maker and a mini fridge, making for a very pleasant stay.

Very near the center of Piraeus and its port. Knowledgeable and efficient staff, clean and more than adequately equipped room, big balcony with chairs and table, free parking, easy to find. At both sides of the double bed there are electricity outlets, a big wardrobe, a small refrigerator and good internet. The small size of the shower is not a problem, but it does not have glass doors, only a curtain

Good room, very central, great value for money.

So far so good. Walking distance to traiin station. Direct train from airport to Piraeus station.

Very convenient location if catching ferries the next morning, clean and reasonably comfortable rooms, and great service at the front desk. Price is very reasonable as well.

It's very close to the port, making it a convenient place to stay if you're taking a ferry. There are also large supermarkets nearby, making shopping convenient. This is an older hotel, but the amenities are still there and the cleanliness is acceptable; however, there's no kettle. The room isn't too small, but the shower is quite small. For a one-night stay, it's a good value for money.

We stayed just one night in this hotel in order to take a ferry early in the morning. Our stay was very good, the room was comfortable and the staff was very friendly.

After reading the other reviews, I was a bit worried about my stay. But, as I just needed a good sleep after a long ferry ride, and an early morning flight, this place was fine. It was an ideal location for catching the metro to the airport and for arriving late from the ferry. Sheets were clean, shower had great pressure, the staff person was helpful and stayed at the front desk all night. It was...

We stayed at Ion Hotel for one night before our cruise and it was a great choice. The location is very convenient — just a 10-minute walk from the metro with a direct connection from the airport. The hotel is clean and comfortable, perfect for a short stay. If you’re heading to cruise terminal B or C, as we were, I recommend taking an Uber. One tip: bring an adapter, since the room only has European...

It was a great catching the cruise

Nice hotel, really close to the port. If you need to take the ferry i recommend you this place. Nice and clean.

I was there for one night to catch and early ferry. It got the job done and the guys working the front desk were nice.

Nice staff. So close to ferries

Everything is ok. Breakfast is very boring

I stayed here recently and the main issue is that it simply doesn’t offer good value for money. There are much better and cheaper options in Athens. The biggest problem was the beds. The mattresses were very uncomfortable — you can feel the springs, and even after changing beds it didn’t improve. For the price, this is not acceptable. The breakfast is definitely not worth €6. It’s extremely basic...

Hostel is a good low cost (for central Athens) “no frills” place to stay in an ideal location in Monastiraki.

You need to repared your own towel, shampoo and shower gel. The place is average, not that bad. The shower room in my bedroom is quite small. You can hear all the noises from the hallway in my room. Hostel located in the city which is a good location.

Everything was great! The hotel is beautiful and clean, as are the rooms. The staff are amazing, and there are lots of common areas. The bar has a fantastic view!

Amazing location. A couple minute walk from Monastiraki metro station. A short walk to the Acropolis and Acropolis museum. Stayed in single room, with private bathroom and balcony. Check in was quick. I arrived early so left my luggage in coin lockers for the morning. Room was clean, shower was good (hot water and strong) Bed was good. Pillows were just ok. Balcony overlooking the alley was nice...

All nice..exept shower needs attention...no screen All water comes out it flood's the place.and makes the very slippery very unsafe, Everyone is saying the some thing on the comments... And rooms need hot water kettel To make coffee or tea....

Arrived in the early hours by bus from the airport, stops like 5 min walk from hotel and the reception is amazing, the rooms are absolutely great for what they charge. Only little point, would be great to have a shower cabin or at least a curtain.

Wish I had booked more nights here! Front desk is amazing. Better than hostels that I've stayed at, for roughly the same price. That said, if you're comparing to a hostel, you'll be impressed. If you're expecting a luxury hotel, you might not be. Private room with working air-conditioning and comfy pillows. The toilet flushes a little funky--you need to use a water bucket to aid flushing. Also, there...

We stayed here for one night as a couple after a flight from Asia. Wanted to charge extra 25 euros for early check in so we gave that a miss. The hotel entrance is obscured with frosted glass. The staff were not very friendly and couldn’t find our booking. The room was small but made large by having a complete mirror wall opposite the bed. The bathroom is tiny and re shower head has no rest so you...

The location is very convenient and overall the room was clean however there was an overwhelming and unpleasant smell of cigarettes in the room which made the stay unbearable. We checked out earlier due to this and had a very poor night sleep.

friendly staff decent location in eastern piraeus cool looking rooms that look like the advertised rooms with what feels like soundproof walls only major downside was the wifi, they have 8 different connections that keep swapping between each other and disconnecting overall. when i could finally get connected most social media apps would not work at all.

Great experience clean room and hotel, really friendly and helpful staff. Location of hotel is perfect, walking distance to all the tourist attractions and close to the metro station. The breaskfast room is also so nice looking at the acropolis, breakfast is basic but very good, and it has everything you need! Will stay here next time I hopefully visit athens :)

The location is central ( close to Monastiraki station ), but in a little bit of a run down area. However the hotel is decent, with great friendly staff, simple but tasty breakfast and excellent views from the breakfast room, terrace and some of the rooms on Acropolis and area. If you are lucky enough to grab room 604, your terrace will be the biggest in Athens! Our feedback however would be to give...

Perfect location, right in the heart of Psyrri. The hotel has an amazing rooftop with views of the Acropolis (and some rooms share that same view). The staff was always very friendly. We liked it so much that we came back: we stayed here for a few days in Athens, then went to Kefalonia, and when we returned by ferry, we chose to spend our last night here before flying out of Athens.

Amazing location! From the rooftop, you get a stunning view of the Acropolis. Highly recommended, everyone there was incredibly friendly and always willing to help. The breakfast was great too. After 6 pm, the rooftop bar opened, and we were able to enjoy some cocktails while taking in the view.

The view from our room was absolutely incredible. The room itself was very modern and comfortable. The location is close to everything but on a quiet street. The breakfast had the usual but the pastries and bread were better quality and very fresh. Coffee was bad but the pods in the room were actually really nice. I'd definitely stay there again.

Quiet area but still in walking distance to food and other shops. They have a pretty decent breakfast bar and the folks were friendly. Our room had AC, beds were comfortable and the bathroom was tidy. Good value.

The hotel is clean. Location near city center .breakfast is correct staff are welcoming and helpful.

Hotel clean, cleaned every day. Breakfasts very monotonous and small selection. The worst is the area, visually very poor.

It was spacious enough for a solo traveler, and breakfast was included. I think it's a good value hotel. I don't think the surrounding area is very safe, but that's fine if you don't mind.

All the personal in the hotel were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very rich and healthy. I liked especially the Greek olives, the Greek salad and the delicious Greek yogurt with honey. The location is not the best of Athens , but inside the hotel we enjoyed our two-weeks-stay very much. Bravo !!!

A good value for the price. Very clean and very helpful staff. The location is a few blocks from the metro and it’s walkable to museums and central areas. However, yes the location does seem a bit sketchy and has some visible **** use. I never felt unsafe or bothered by anyone, but I didn’t linger around. The hotel itself was a good experience and I would stay again.

It has complete supporting facilities, high cost-effectiveness, and is close to Constitution Square. Except for some alleys with a lot of idle people, it is generally safe.

The staff were lovely and tried their best for what ever I asked for

Perfect for the ferries at Piraeus. Very well priced. Rooms are clean and decent shower. Compact rooms, but given that most will just be using it as a base for one night, it's all you need. Breakfast buffet for €11 on 7th floor is good value with decent coffee. Lifts are a bit tight, but they work.

Not a super nice place not an awful place,rooms were pretty nice, bathrooms are quite nice, good place to stay for a night as a jumping off point for the island ferries,not a place to stay if you're visiting to be sight seeing Athens. Don't expect everywhere you go to be a nice clean area around there,like any big city its old tight,urban,diverse,congested & busy so yes it will not be super clean sometimes...

A really nice hotel close to the cruise ports with everything you need. Nice rooms that I have been recently refurbished and a lovely breakfast every morning. Great staff and service.

Stayed here during spring break and overall had a pleasant experience. The rooms are small but nicely maintained, clean, and comfortable for a short stay. One drawback is the elevator - it’s very narrow and can barely fit four people, which can be inconvenient during busy times. The location is excellent - just a 5-6 minute walk to the harbor and ferry terminal, making it a great option for travelers...

The hotel staff is friendly and welcoming. They always greet us with a smile and help us open the elevator door. The balcony is spacious and close to the pier, just a three-minute walk away.

If you’re girl traveling alone - I wouldn’t recommend this place. It’s closed to center, but the district is considered to be bad cause of immigrants and dirt. If you don’t like when weird dudes stare at you while you walk around, then its better to find another place😅 There were only guys in my shared room. Some of them were respectful and other spoke loudly on the phone at 7 am, another one was...

The hairdryer is broken. It's inconvenient having different staff every day. There's no way to enter directly by swiping a card. It's in a rather dangerous area. The surrounding area is quite chaotic.

The location is good, but it's not very clean, and the beds are terrible. The bunk beds are very noisy; I couldn't sleep properly at all. The springs in the mattresses are worn out and they make a creaking noise.

Good place to stay you meet many people

great experience. very clean and nice staffs. rooftop bar is great when you want to chill and watch the temple.

I enjoyed my stay here, the rooms are nice and ensuite relatively clean. The only thing is the room are very cold (you have to go to reception to get a blanket/remote for A/C) and don’t come with a curtain - I would suggest a female only room rather than mixed. The area also isn’t the best, I didn’t feel super safe and refrained from walking outside when it got dark. I met some lovely people here though

Booked a double room from dec 27th until dec 30th 2025 to spend my bday in Athens with my sister. I was recommended this hotel and I’m glad I chose it. The location is incredible: 25 min walking distance to the acropolis, 15 mins to the ancient agora and 10 mins to Plaka district. The room was thoroughly clean, including the toilet and shower. The breakfast is included and offers both English and continental...

Had a great time staying in this hotel whilst visiting Greece to watch Scotland. The hotel is in a bit of a quirky area and surrounded by interesting markets. There is also an area behind the hotel in the lanes where you can stumble across quaint restaurants. The accommodation is not 5 star, but not advertised as so. It was very good and clean, but we were not there to spend time in the room! There...

Athens Center Square Hotel is a wonderful place to stay! It’s very well located, with clean and comfortable rooms of a good size. The beds are super cozy, and the lighting is excellent. The staff truly go the extra mile to make you feel welcome. "Miguel", our friend who speaks many languages, and Andreas (who checked us out on Friday at 11 a.m.), as well as another lovely colleague whose name I unfortunately...

Basic three star hotel with great location and fantastic staff. Just off Athenas street the hotel is convient to the major tourist attractions. We never had to walk more than 30 minutes to anything. Rooftop deck has spectacular views of the Acropolis and evening drinks hosted by the most friendly Elsa. The rooms are basic and have very little storage. A small hanging closet and a few small shelves...

I read previous reviews on different platforms before booking this hotel for a 2 night stay. I do wonder if I am in a parallel universe to other reviewers. My expectation was a quiet clean hotel in central Athens near the markets with a good breakfast. The reality was a noisy hotel in a very downbeat area. I had a room on the fifth floor facing the markets. The hotel has placed lighting all round...

Great location and super friendly staff! The room was very clean and the view of Acropolis and half of Athens was incredible (we stayed on the 8th floor). The rooftop area offers a 360° view of Athens and you can see as far as the ocean. The bar was only open during weird hours, but that could be because it was kind of low season. Only downside to the hotel was the lack of in house restaurant (I really...

The hotel was really good. Its near to the city centre.

According to the price, this hotel service is good. But the location is excellent.

The hotel is located in a nice place. All the major attractions are 1 - 3 metro stops away, which hardly takes 10-15 mins from the gate of the hotel to the gate of the attraction. The staff is really nice, the person who was doing morning shift on 22nd gave me an early checkin, very kind of him. The lady in the night shift, I think her name is Lana, she is also very helpful. Caffe and restaurant near...

Good, central, clean and cheap. Been there before. This time I stayed at the lower floors. Second floor. Much more noise from staff and guests this time. But total experience is ok for short stays.

I arrived around 1 am and was worried the hotel might be closed for the night. However they have 24hr service so you can check in at any time. The women who worked at nights was very helpful and told me to ask her if I needed to find anything and she’ll tell me where to go. The room itself was clean and came with all you need for the price I payed. The location is amazing, right in the centre and a...

Due to the Iran war, my flights were cancelled and so was not able to stay. No refund for cancellation too, which was unfair.

Nice hotel in the middle of Omonia square. The location is amazing plenty of public transport options around , close to everything.

Clean and central hotel, the receptionists are friendly.

The room is clean and the location is quite good. However, the shower is a real challenge; you inevitably flood the entire bathroom while showering.

The hotel boasts a perfect location. The metro station is just a minute's walk away, or you can enjoy a pleasant 20-30 minute stroll to the Plaka district, where all attractions are then within easy reach. Right outside the metro station, you'll find a shopping center featuring a charming rooftop cafe. It's an ideal spot to unwind with a coffee while enjoying a fantastic view, including the Acropolis...

Good hotel in a central location . Close to many restaurants and cafes

The service was good and helpful. The best asset are definitely the people who work there.

Nice Hotel, friendly staff. A 10 minute walk to the Piraeus port, 5 minutes to the train stop. Lot's of restaurants, shopping,etc. in the area.

We were just taking some rest before traveling to Greece islands. Clean room with great service.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was perfect and clean, and it was such good value. The area is right in the middle.of everything and close to the excellent metro. Thank you for my stay, it made my trip.

I stayed there for one night after a cruise. The staff was very friendly and got us into our room fast. I wish they had ratings for very good as this place was. Main reason for a lower rating is location. Close to the docks but not much else in the area.

Basic but nice hotel, located close to Pireus port (10min walk). Very nice staff, clean. Exactly what we were expecting.

Traveled as a single mom with my 11 year old daughter. I seriously found everything about this hotel exceptional. The bathroom was on the smaller side for a plus size person but not enough for me to complain about I’m only sharing as a reference for folks such as myself on the heavier side. Staff was excellent and always available to help. The surrounding area had everything we needed in walking distance...

1 day the lady didnt clean the toilet change towels or the bed which the other regular lady was great for the other 3 days she was so nice cleaned up very good

This was a lovely hotel in a leafy suburb area. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, and helped me every step of the way as I was there on an emergency and needing accommodations. I would highly recommend it to anybody. The breakfast was excellent, and truly my experience was stelllar

I only stayed one night in transit in Athens so my experience is limited. Staff was very nice, the pool is good also (except the no diving rule despite being 2.4m deep!). You need to walk a bit to get more dinner options if you don’t have a car but the area is nice.

Kindly with people and cleaners. Parquing good.

Everything was great, the only thing that upset me was the air conditioning the room doesn’t cooling

I’ve been attending a hospital nearby and this hotel has been a great find. Having a pool to relax next to is great! We’ve now been twice this year (July and September). The pool is open to paying members of the public too so it was quite busy in July but we still had no issues with getting a sun lounger. I believe the pool is closed from October through to March. The staff are friendly in the hotel...
