Staff accommodated my early check in for 2 nite stay. They were pleasant and quick to meet my request. Had initial issue with elevator not reaching floor which was resolved immediately. Room and bathroom was small but met my needs. Not fancy which reflected the price. Breakfast was simple : coffee /tea, ham & cheese slices, hard boiled egg, yogurt with honey, fresh bread , cake, apples, cereal

They refused my registered service animal which is a Law in Greece that anyone should be granted entry to a public place or hotel. Guy at front made up a lie that the landlord doesn't allow them. He also said they had a problem with. Dog biting someone. Regardless of this was true it's an isolated problem that may have occurred. He didn't even want to hear anything. He said he couldmt help me. I will report this place to the proper authorities in Greece and EU.

Our boat was getting upgrades at Alimos Marina so this was the perfect spot to come back to at night, sleep, get a free buffet breakfast and head back to the boat yard. We booked at very late notice, for 1 night. And then came back again for another night. Both times we had the Deluxe partial seaview room for 2 adults and 2 children. Large room, desk, fridge, big bathroom, and lots of space for the 2 extra rollaway beds. Huge balcony with sidelong view to ocean. Definitely recommend.

Not bad for the money
Room was pretty clean. Bathroom was tiny. Bed was comfortable. Air con can’t be controlled from your room ? Have to ask reception to turn it on. Fridge barely did anything.. breakfast was fine. We was allowed to leave our luggage at reception after checking out which was great. And also sourced a taxi for our trip out. Not a bad stay really, close to Alimos harbour.

Poor service and quality
Apart from the location, we did not enjoy the stay in this hotel. The room smelled of ciggarette smoke, the shower had been leaking and was noisy all night. Room was right next to the lift so very noisy, when people were coming in and out. The airconditionning was set at hot air -we had to call the reception to change to airconditionning at 1am as it was unbearable hot in the room. Breakfast were ok. Parking was available in front of the hotel.

Mminoas, receptionist, is the real treasure here.
This hotel was a quick and convenient stopover on our way from Athens airport to northern Greece. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast looked ok, not fabulous. The real treasure was the warm welcome from the receptionist, Mminoas, who spoke perfect English and was happy to answer all our questions about Greece. He went above and beyond the call of duty.

One of my favorites
This is my second time at this hotel, and I hope to keep using it when I visit Athens. It is a very elegant little place that has all the amenities, really elegant décor, and great staff. I especially enjoy seeing the evening receptionist when I arrive. The breakfast room is great in winter as well as in the summer, and the hotel is located near public transportation to Athens center and by the beach. Easy to access from the airport, (take the Attiki Odos going to Pireus and then to Glyfada - much faster than other routes. Then take Alimou Str an dthe first right on the first light). Tell the taxi to use a GPS to find Fan Vaik street. Driving directions on a map published with the photos of the hotel might help. There is a small parking availability if you have a rental.

Nice Place to stay. Bathroom was clean,TV not the best programming,ac worked good, Breakfast leaves a lot to be improved. hard boiled eggs, cereal, semolina bread, sliced ham & cheese, jam,butter.

The hotel is close to the beach, clean and tastefully decorated. The room is nice, with beautiful side see view balcony. But, the bathroom is too small, you can not properly open the door. The breakfast is poor and repetitive.

Decent price, lacking in other things...
Convenient location and room was decent other than the carpet being dirty. Hotel staff at the front desk not very helpful. Additionally, school right across the street and a lot of noise in the morning from the kids and the megaphones. Overall was ok for the price but would prefer to pay a little more to find something a little better.

Budget hotel with pretensions
This hotel is fine and perfectly useable for a short stay (2 or 3 nights) for leisure or cost constrained business trip. I don't know if they have any rooms of the size, quality and standrad of decor illustrated on Expedia but my 'Executive' room certainly wasn't of that standard. I asked at the desk if I'd been put in an Exec room and they said I had and that the others were smaller. The room was of an adequate size, clean with modern furnishings and good King size bed but not of an an 'Executive' standard. The bathroom was tiny; certainly no room for two people in there and anyone 'of a size' should forget about this hotel. Some of the room and bathroom fittings were broken; eg shower gel holder, wardrobe door handles and it was only just possible to close the balcony door. On the plus side The A/C worked well and the small mini-bar fridge also worked. Pity nothing was in it ! Breakfast was a bit skimpy. The location was also good as it's near the beach and Poseidonos Avenue coastal road in a mid point between Piraeus, Glyfada and central Athens and a few minutes walk from a tram-stop.

False advertisement, hotel isn't the photos.
The hotel isn't like the photos at all, they don't have the rooms they're advertising. The partial sea view rooms are directly across from a school playground, NOISY as hell! Right next to the hotel entrance is a big trash dumpster in which you walk past everyday you leave the hotel to go to the beach, tram, store etc. Not a hotel for vacation, house keeping doesn't clean, change bedding everyday unless told to do so which isn't why you pay to stay at any hotel, that service should be included unless you trash the place & they charge you for it. Breakfast is boiled eggs, cheese, cereal, bread, water, juice, coffee, tea & the only fruit is peaches ;-(

Very small rooms.
We asked for a triple bed room. It was so small. We could not move in it. Bathroom was not enough for even a big kid. No view. The photos showed much beter rooms. No value for money. Breakfast was not bad. Staff were very friendly. They gave us late checkout. 100 meters walk to the beach. Could be good for a young couple only.

Not nice place to stay
I expected a small balcony for sea view instead a got a tiny window that doesn't open crammed between two building where u get a peak of a sea view. Poseidon hotel few blocks down the street was much more spacious with cleaner rooms and a clean spacious proper bathroom. The bathroon in nefeli was truly a disaster. I have never placed reviews before and this experience was bad that I had to place my review. Never again. The only reason I took nefeli over poseidon which I had tried and liked is the fact that no more sea view bedrooms were available in poseidon and thought id give nefeli a chance. I learned my lesson the hard way. Hotel staff was unprofessional and barely helpful. I was hungry at nightand they did not have room service. They provided me with flyers to call a restaurant and failed to even offer to call themselves and when I called the person only spoke greek. So it was a frustrating stay. Glad it was only one night.

Hotel is ok but some of the staff seem dis-interested, particularly the breakfast person who has issues & complains about her lack of resources but we believe half the problem is her wasting time.

Not a bad hotel but not that great either
We stayed just for one night at this hotel and frankly speaking for the price we paid, the hotel was okay. Nothing remarkable. The part of city where this hotel is situated is decent but residential. Very close to the beach and the hotel has a view of the sea. The main thing that we disliked was the breakfast which was really very small with little choice but otherwise the hotel was fine.

WORST hotel EVER!!! & scary place!!! DO NOT GO
I had been checked in for less than one hour the afternoon before my night stay at hotel Nefeli when I decided I could not stand to spend the night here. The entire hotel, even the non-smoking rooms, were choked with cigarette smoke and the hallways smelt like ammonia or an old nursing home. Trying to squeeze into the tiny elevator to make it to the 5th floor with my luggage was a true stress. Once inside my room, I noticed this was nothing similar to what was described or pictured on the Expedia website.The entire room had long and short black hairs EVERYWHERE; the floors, bedding, bathroom,shower, and even the walls of the room were plastered with hairs!! The tiny stand-up shower was entirely open to the just as small bathroom and water rot was viewable around the edges of the bathroom. It looked like the entire cleanliness of the hotel had been dismal and had a substandard. The bed, with it's black hairs in it, was made up; but other than that, it was NASTY and the towels smelt like cigarette smoke. The area where the hotel is located is dismal as well, it has nothing at all that makes it look nice or stand out from a third-world apartment complex. There was also an area of the floor the would creek when I walked on it; disturbing being high up on the 5th floor. The manager was furious I didn't like my room and would not give me a dime of my money back! The manager was very rude, inflexible, and hostile; in no way was he apologetic or kind- I felt truly threatened.
