Niche Hotel Athens
5/5 Excellent
"The staff is so nice and attentive. Had some great recommendations and goes above and beyond to meet your needs. Location is perfect, a block or two from Ermou street. Breakfast is very good, and has a nice variety. Only thing, the property needs to invest in more irons. "

Athens Gate Hotel
5/5 Excellent
"The staff are exceptional. They were extremely helpful with an emergency situation we were dealing with (unrelated to our stay), and helped print out documents etc. The rooftop restaurant is very nice and had a great view, and our room was surprisingly quiet for the proximity to major roads and downtown. Small things that could have been better: the bathroom sink drain was broken, and the bottled waters provided in the fridge were opened by previous guests. "

"Cool hotel situated in the Heart of Athens. 5 min walk to the Acropolis and restaurants to eat right as you exit the hotel. Great breakfast spread and the timing for breakfast is 6 am - 11 am hours which is great for early risers and people who want to sleep in. I would go back again."
