I chose this property because it was close to the Eureka Greek Language School where I took 18 hours of Travelers Greek. It deserves more stars but it has quirky idiosyncrasies which make getting to 5 asymptotic. The staff is friendly, the breakfast satisfying, the location ideal, the price suitable to my budget, the guests conversational and well travelled. The quirks? The elevator climbs one floor short of its destination, the room temp is best regulated by opening the window, the elevator cabin arrives short of level, the front door often is a ajar and clicks, the common space downstairs doubles as breakfast area and bar so there’s no space for quiet down time. The rooms/spaces were cleaned daily. On the whole there value here and a charming shared experience to be had. ##### Carlos Stayed 14 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jesse Mar 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Easy access to local attractions, food and shopping. ##### Jesse Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Scott May 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location to the Acropolis and metro station. Lovely little rooftop bar with views of the Acropolis. ##### Scott Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Sara Sep 21, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The only positive thing I’ll say about my stay here was it was in a great location. It was centrally located and all major areas were within walking distance including the Acropolis. On a negative note, the staff was rude, the rooms were so small I could not even fit my suitcase inside (I kept it on balcony because I couldn’t open it otherwise) , the bathrooms were unclean and overall just gross, you had to pay for a shower towel, and they turn the AC off in the rooms during the day so if you wanted to rest/nap, you’d be miserable because of the stuffiness in the room. This wasn’t my first hostel stay so I wasn’t expecting much but this was just a disappointment. ##### Sara Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert Oct 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff very helpful ##### Robert Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Stacey Sep 11, 2024 The breakfast included was definitely a bonus.

In general the hostel is good, it's very near of Acropoli, and the beds are very comfortable. The only bad things are: towels not included, you need to pay 2€ for rent and you also need to buy your locker. ##### Joana Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Anna Oct 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities We had a room with a private bathroom, the rooftop bar is a must to experience the view! Easy and nice, simple accommodations. Thank you ##### Anna Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurie Oct 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Property is very clean, bedding was good quality, and there were no issues with hot water in the shower. Room seemed like it was newly renovated (room #15 on the 4th floor). It was quiet between about midnight and 6am. The elevator makes a very loud grinding bang every time it stops, which you can hear in the room and made it hard to sleep. The elevator also oddly stopped about 1/2 meter from the actual floor and the door opened, which was unsafe, so we took the stairs for the rest of our stay. Breakfast was fine, which included hard boiled eggs, apples/oranges, cereal, tomato, cucumber, cheese, ham, bread, so so filter coffee, juice. Housekeeping staff was very nice and offered every day to clean the room. Staff at the bar/breakfast area/check-in were usually professional and friendly, but the staff person at check-in seemed to hate his job and appeared irritated at normal questions. Location was great and steps from the acropolis entrance and acropolis museum, many restaurants, and shops. The roof bar terrace had an amazing view and opens at 6pm. We would stay again (and take the stairs). ![View from the roof terrace](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/98242fed-aa75-4202-b7c8-9ca4c1fe55d7-1761128636253.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View from the roof terrace ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4e39477e-8e00-46cd-9b63-500cc338b881-1761128636434.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Laurie Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brad Nov 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My two nights at backpackers hostel was great! Friendly staff with two bars… One in the lobby, and one on the roof top with great views of the acropolis. Both bars have a one hour happy hour… Two for one drinks. Very nice breakfast served in the lobby that is also included. Rooms are cleaned daily… Mine had six bunks with a private bathroom for those six people. Nice atmosphere in the lobby to hang out as long as you want and meet other travelers. Highly recommend Backpackers hostel! ##### Brad Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tommi May 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### High classed hostel Really cozy and high classed hostel in a very good location! Sometimes it felt that I'm at the hotel than hostel because the public rooms. People were social and the staff was nice (especially cleaners). Free breakfast was delicious and there was cleaning every day. I will definitely stay again when I come to Athens again!! ##### Tommi Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Maria Sep 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities After arriving from the airport after midnight I was ready for a shower and bed. The front desk staff took some time to find my prepaid reservation. Shortly after, I was given the security codes for the room I was sharing and the front door. I was able to shower and sleep shortly after everything was straightened out. I must say that breakfast was really good with plenty of options for bread, boiled eggs, some cereal, juice and coffee. There is a metro station close. For me it was a 10 minute walk to Syntagma Square for the 24 hour bus service to/from the airport which was the selling point for this place. The view of the Acropolis from the roof top bar was amazing. I stayed two nights and would come back just for the views, location and breakfast. The place was clean and safe. ##### Maria Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### fritzi Apr 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I booked 2 nights. Nice part of city, walkable to everything. Some sexist situation or condition. I came early before check in, girl at the front looked annoyed, and told me to wait until check in time. Then 2 men walked in a few mins later and she immediately checked them in. After witnessing that, I went to her and checked in. I won’t speculate why she gave the men immediate attention. But as a female, I’m aware of authority gap between men and women. I also learned, I hastily booked a 6 bed mixed dorm. I was the only female. The men were nice but the bathroom situation was awkward. I requested a female dorm for next day’s booking. The girl at the front was more accommodating and the other receptionist (male), was nice. I had to check out from mixed dorm, then re-checked in w/o having to wait long for my next bed to be cleaned. Men and women’s lockers differed. Women had wider/bigger lockers with a shelf. 4 of the girls in my new dorm were friendly, 3 Americans, 1 German. A newly checked in girl who came after me had a haughty attitude. In my experience living in 3 continents before 23, I can spot nationality and character (stereotype) display irl. This girl was living up to her nationality’s reputation, arrogant. The other girls talked about her behind her back, and as soon as she came in, the room became quiet. My linens were musty. Apparently everyone’s linens did. The smell is from not being dried completely before storing. Towels are for rent and very thin. ##### fritzi Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Shawn Oct 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities No really cooking facilities very small fridge and a microwave and sandwich toaster. ##### Shawn Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tricia Jul 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Close to Metro & the center of everything!!!
