Hotels in Metaxourgeio, Athens

It is a completely renovated hotel in the ancient building. The space is very high and very clean. The ceiling retains the original mural. It is very beautiful. The customer service Effie is very kind, but when you go to Greece, please be sure to open a local phone. Most hotel customer service will need to contact you by phone or SMS. The location is also convenient, the only problem is that the sound of the car at night will be more obvious.

Positive points: The room was very clean. It was also very close to the subway station. The key was a number-entry type, so there was no worry about losing it. The dinner delivery options were plentiful and reasonably priced, which was great. The view was beautiful, and the bed was very comfortable. The shower had plenty of hot water. Shampoo and shower gel were provided. The room's interior was beautiful, and the staff were kind and very nice. They also held our luggage before check-in and after check-out. Points of concern: You need the WhatsApp app for check-in and other communication. I think not many Japanese people have it installed. The room was clean, but the window couldn't be opened, so ventilation was difficult. The air conditioning worked well, so it wasn't a big issue. The shower drain clogged fairly easily. This might be difficult for women with long hair. There were no amenities such as hairbrushes or cosmetics. I might have been able to get them if I asked, but staff hours ended at 5 PM, so it wasn't possible.

Accommodation was exactly as described. Clean and tidy with lots of space. The location was great with only short walks to more popular locations and sites. There's plenty of local restaurants and cafes which was ideal for 10 days. We saw warnings about avoiding back streets but actually found a really nice fish restaurant, nice church with kids playing in the streets. There were also 2 reasonable supermarkets in the vicinity, better value than the multiple minimarts in the area. You are right next to the metro if you don't want to walk. You can easily get to and from the airport for 9 euros with only one change. We did the bus tour which operate from across the road. There was a lot of homeless but that was more between the apartment and Omonia. You see them but they're not aggressive or demanding. I've saw a lot worse elsewhere especially in the UK. Couldn't recommend enough, especially for the price. The staff were very friendly, we didn't need to contact them for anything and they only contacted for cleaning and check in and out. The Christmas village was actually the highlight although seeing a tortoise near the Parthenon was a close second.

Great hotel close to restaurants. Rooms were clean and very aesthetically pleasing. Transport is very accessible and it’s easy to get everywhere. Office staff were helpful and knowledgeable. No restaurant or drinks on site but there is a street vendor just outside selling drinks and snacks. Rooms were serviced daily with fresh towels and coffee.

Very friendly and helful staffs. Breakfast has enough choice for a wake up meal. Rooms are clean. We enjoy our choice of staying here.

The staff in the hotel are extremely lovely and they try their best to make the trip as enjoyable as possible. Matina is wonderful and just brings a smile to my face everytime I enter and exit the hotel. Elina was so kind to extend my checkout time despite the hotel being fully booked. Last but not least, the breakfast staff were so patient and always polite and lovely. Otherwise of course the hotel requires maintenance and the area is too crowded as any populated city, so if you go with the right expectations you will enjoy your trip, otherwise if you have high expectations I recommend booking somewhere else.

This hotel is a 15 - to 20-minute walk to the main city Square. So, it suits abled travelers, as one may need to walk back and forth to explore the main attraction sites of athens near the acropolis. The metro is adjacent to the hotel, so that is another option, very convenient. The front desk is staffed 24 hours a day, and everyone, including housekeeping, is most helpful. The dreaded ”lady” is a rather interesting individual. However, if one makes the effort to talk to her and persevere in spite of her peculiarity, there is no reason why one can not extract a smile out of her, and have a normal conversation with her. Overall, I would recommend this hotel as a good value preposition.

The location of the hotel is right next to a huge homeless population. However, it is a 15 minute walking distance from popular restaurants and squares. As for the room, it’s not the nicest room, so it fits the price of what you pay for. The sink and shower didn’t drain. But the bed was pretty comfy and had AC which was a huge advantage. The staff is amazing and super nice.

Central Green Apartments was a great spot to stay. It was within walking distance (if an hour walk isn't too much for you) to the Acropolis and Plaka. Otherwise, the nearby Metro train is there. The apartment was clean, the beds were comfortable, and we had everything you could need to have a lengthy stay. Roof top view of the Acropolis is amazing too! Close to mini markets, cafes, and restaurants. [Side note - being opposite the bus depot and taxi rank, I recommend ear plugs. The children wore themselves out, so the noise didn't seem to bother them, but as a pretty light sleeper, definitely needed.]
