Lovely apartment, great location

We stayed in this apart-hotel for three nights. The apartment was lovely - spacious and beautifully decorated. The location was ideal, a nice quiet street, close to the city centre and a stone’s throw from a metro station. The reception staff were particularly friendly and helpful and directed us to some lovely restaurants in the area. We would be very happy to stay there if we return to Athens.

Food options were insane. Right next to a park, which has a subway point in the middle of it. Right next to the Techropolis, which is where I went to see the concert (my entire reason for being in Greece). There IS a front desk with a person manning it during business hours. If you come in late, they mail you door codes and lockbox codes to get your card. The AC works but takes a while. Also if you so much as open the door to the patio, the AC stops until you turn it back on. The entire room is powered by the keycard, so no AC until you're in there. Rooms were smaller than I thought but very nice. Rooftop patio is a definite plus. Overall this place is a fantastic bargain for what it is, and especially where it is.

Next time I'm in Athens, I'm staying at Athenian Spirit. It's right next to the Metro that takes you directly to and from the airport. There are many great bars and restaurants nearby. The rooftop is great for lounging around with a beverage. The rooms were spacious and impeccably clean. The bed and sofa were very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Tip: you can't flush TP down the toilet, so bring wipes since there isn't a bidet.

This property, even though small, was well suited for two people. We had the Jr Suite with a balcony. The views were great from our. Also y but even better from the rooftop. The hotel is a small boutique hotel. The desk staff were very helpful and kind. The property was clean and very modern. The kitchenette was well stocked with cooking utensils and there is a small frig. No microwave but a hot plate which was usual to heat things up. The elevator is like a small closet. My husband and I could not both fit with our luggage so we had to make multiple trips. There are many restaurants within walking distance and the subway/train was a short walk from the hotel. The only complaint is the rooftop bar adjacent to the hotel. The hotel does supply ear plugs but they were no match for the extra loud music that played until 4am on a Friday night.

Nice accommodations but noisy

The noise from the nearby club took away from sleeping. I don't like ear plugs. Too much time online administerng the stay. When we did deal with the front desk young lady in person, she was charming, friendly, and efficient.

Disappointed about check in. Details of how to check in after reception closed was not shared for my arrival. I did share with the hotel before I arrived that I had a late flight and would be arriving late. However, the hotel did not message me with how to access the property before I arrived so I was left standing outside and had to ring the hotel. This wouldn’t normally be a problem in my own com punter but data roaming charges and no battery on my phone made it all quite stressful

I can’t give you any information about the parking because we did not rent a vehicle.The things to know about this hotel are as follows… This hotel is located one stop from Monastiraki train station , eight stops from Piraeus Port, and the last stop is at the airport. From Monastiraki you can walk to majority of the sites in Athens. You can see the Acropolis from the top of the hotel rooftop. The beds were very comfortable and the room was clean. The staff were very helpful. In all fairness, My Plate was the only restaurant we tried in the neighborhood and we ate there most nights. The food is good, inexpensive, and the staff were very friendly.
