Achilleas has the best shower of the 14 days we have been traveling. Roomy shower area but the toilet & sink area is small with not enough bars & hooks for towels. 2 unique capsule elevators. Spiral & narrow staircase is not lighted enough that it can be dangerous. They should improve lighting asap. Breakfast area is small & items limited so it got old by our 4th day of stay. We love the location and everything is about10 min walk but the hotel must improve signage in the front (name written vertically in one column near the curb) & easy to miss. We missed & passed the hotel twice within the first 2 days. We were assigned 2nd floor though we requested upper floor quiet room. We can hear clinking of dishes from breakfast room 2 floors below. The hotel can also use some newer softer bath towels. Staff is friendly & helpful, good air con & mini frig. We will stay again for the convenience.

Great property. The staff were amazing! Very friendly and helpful. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend for friends. Also Thanks for letting me checkout early and leave my bags there until it was time for airport…. And special thanks for getting me a wagon taxi so it didn’t take 2 taxis to get to airport. These people have your back and want your vacation to be a great one

Great hotel in Athens!
It would be better to have a little table and chair to put on makeup in the room or a bigger vanity in the bathroom. Otherwise, we love staying at Hotel Achilleas. This is the third time I have stayed here starting in 1986 with my mother. Hotel Achilleas is the best!

The hotel was kind enough to allow us to check in early and have a cool respite from the heat outdoors after our long travels. My kids and I were so grateful for a clean and comfortable bed, with air conditioning. The room and bathroom is modern and nicely renovated. The location of the hotel is great because it is walking distance to so many of the sites, yet it is also quiet. This was the perfect hotel for us! Thank you

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I made it clear when i was booking this property that we needed two beds because i was traveling with my adult son. The room was supposedly a quadruple sleeping room but it only had one bed and two extremely narrow hard as a board couches. Looks nothing like the pictures. It's dark and dreary. elevator is so tiny you have to fit suck in to fit. The hotel did nothing to help us with the room. miserable.
Response from Sofia on Nov 25, 2022
Dear Maureen, I would like to take this opportunity to state the facts as they truly are because your review can be misleading for future guests. The bed preference, as mentioned very clearly on Expedia website, is upon availability. The room type you stayed at is ideal for 4 adults- while you were only 2. It had a king size bed (2 meters * 2 meters) and 2 sofa beds, especially made to accommodate another 2 adults, exactly as seen in the pictures. We understand you arrived exhausted at our hotel after having slept for 13 hours at the airport due to multiple flight details, but the hotel cannot be blamed for that. We are sorry this made you rate us poorly. Sincerely, Sofia
