Our stay at Hotel Avra in Rafina was a complete disaster from start to finish. The beds were in such terrible condition that neither my wife, daughter, nor I managed to get any sleep the entire night! The restaurant was another nightmare: the food was both awful and outrageously overpriced, easily the worst dining experience we’ve had in years. To make matters worse, the hotel had the nerve to charge us 30 euros just for an early check-in, something most decent hotels handle gracefully. This was hands down one of the worst hotel experiences we’ve ever had. We will never be coming back, and I strongly advise others to look elsewhere if you value comfort, service, and even basic hospitality

The hotel is lovely with beautiful finishes and modern amenities. All was fine…just no place to set hand soap or much else in the sink area. We only stayed one night between flights. It was nice to be a little away from the airport. We stayed on a religious holiday, so fid not get a sense of the port. Like a number of places in Greece, there are narrow sidewalks with chunks of tile or pavement missing, so walking (especially with those of us with some mobility issues) must be done with caution so as not to trip. We are at one nearby restaurant ( the crepe place) which was beautiful with great service, though healthy options were limited. I would try the town hotel again on a more normal time.

We returned to Hotel Avra after 5 years. We appreciate the free, timely and convenient airport transportation to and from the hotel. The property is beautiful and recently remodeled. The rooms were super clean and comfortable. The breakfast was great! So many options! Being by the sea and having a view of the port is another asset. The staff was friendly and helpful especially those at the restaurant/bar. Thank you.

This was a fantastic stay near the airport with great restaurants in the area. The airport shuttle was easy and the included breakfast was very nice. If you need a stay near the airport in Athens I would highly recommend the Avra hotel.

If you’re looking for a 5 star hotel for an extended stay, this is not it. But it is a clean, comfortable, convenient place to rest between flights or for a short amount of time. Lots of small amenities are included, like Q-tips and other hygiene necessities in case you don’t have your checked bags. Hotel staff is neutral, not rude, but certainly not friendly.

I stayed here because it was advertised as close to the airport with a free shuttle. It’s actually about half an hour drive from the airport so I wouldn’t consider this really an “airport” hotel. Nevertheless, overall it’s an OK property for an overnight stay if you don’t want to be in Athens itself. The breakfast had a good variety.

Basic hotel that meets the needs of a quick late night stay to head to airport next day for a flight. It takes around 30 minutes to get from airport , so not as close as I imagined it to be!
