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 ### 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!!! ##### Tricia Stayed 1 night in Jun 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 ### 6/10 Okay #### Erik Aug 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Decent It was an ok stay the location is good plenty of restaurants & fast food spots nearby there’s a bar on the rooftop with a nice view of the Acropolis & the bathrooms are well kept if you’re 6’2 or taller these beds won’t be good for you due to the short length and the A/C and was kind of weak other than that it was worth it for the money + free breakfast ##### Erik Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sumit Oct 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great place ##### Sumit Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 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 4, 2024 It was a great close to the acropolis ##### Robert Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### WILLIAM Jul 4, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Wonderful staff and friendly fellow travelers. ##### WILLIAM Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 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 ### 8/10 Good #### Antonio Sep 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I liked the service and the easily accessible place. ##### Antonio Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### LUIS Oct 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was my first time at a hostel and I loved it! ##### LUIS Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 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 #### Nicolas Apr 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The room of 4 people are great, didn’t like as much the 8 people room, but it does depend of the people you get stuck with ##### Nicolas Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Joana Mar 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good and central hostel but... 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 #### Stacey Sep 11, 2024 The breakfast included was definitely a bonus. The facility itself was clean all on all, It was a good choice. ##### Stacey Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Alexandre Aug 15, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Location of the hostel is amazing, it is a 2 min walk from there to the Acropolis. ##### Alexandre Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 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!

However, the price for a family room was excessive - we paid more there than we could have paid at a hotel with more amenities (like a clothes rod and hangers (!!) and maybe a hand towel). If the price hadn’t been so high ($286 Cdn a night on the weekend), I would have given a higher overall rating, but the price was out of line for that room in that type of venue. ##### Carolyn Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James Mar 13, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Cool place close to acropolis ##### James Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Erika Jun 10, 2023 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Everything was great, location, breakfast, friendly staff. Only two things to mind are if you are too close to the rooftop you'll hear all the chatter and the AC is very strong, had to sleep with a sweater . ##### Erika Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Maxime Jun 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I liked the fact thats everything is at walking distance. The person at the desk we're helpful and nice. ##### Maxime Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Banff Park Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Banff-Hotels-Banff-Park-Lodge.h460527.Hotel-Information) > > [W Boston, a Marriott Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-W-Boston.h2800816.Hotel-Information) > > [Cape Sounio, A Grecotel Resort to Live](https://www.expedia.ca/Athens-Hotels-Cape-Sounio.h973998.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Hot Springs Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Fairmont-Hot-Springs-Hotels-Fairmont-Hot-Springs-Resort.h30999850.Hotel-Information) > > [Phidias Piraeus Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Athens-Hotels-Phidias-Piraeus-Hotel.h1545253.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Baddeck](https://www.expedia.ca/Baddeck-Hotels.d58461.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Athenaeum InterContinental by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Athens-Hotels-Athenaeum-InterContinental.h19591.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn by Hilton Edmonton/Sherwood Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-By-Hilton-EdmontonSherwood-Park.h11046183.Hotel-Information) > > [Temptation Cancun Resort All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Temptation-Cancun-Resort-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h17310768.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Styles Athens Routes](https://www.expedia.ca/Athens-Hotels-Ibis-Styles-Athens-Routes.h36122912.Hotel-Information) > > [Athenaeum Smart Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Athens-Hotels-Athenaeum-Smart-Hotel.h36768197.Hotel-Information) > > [Kinetta Beach Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Athens-Hotels-Kinetta-Beach-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h2256271.Hotel-Information) > > [Motels Canmore](https://www.expedia.ca/Canmore-Motels.d10131-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels with Early Check-in in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Hotel-With-Early-Check-In.0-0-d178314-thotelwithearlycheckin.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hilton Vancouver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Hilton-Vancouver-Downtown.h127122.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Tokyo](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels.d179900.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [President Hotel Athens](https://www.expedia.ca/Athens-Hotels-President-Hotel-Athens.h1637285.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Fiumicino (FCO) to Cinisi (PMO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fco/pmo/rome-to-palermo) > > [Flights from St. John's (YYT) to Ottawa (YOW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyt/yow/st-johns-to-ottawa) > > [Air India](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-India-Flights.cAI.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Goffs (YHZ) to Happy Valley - Goose Bay (YYR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhz/yyr/halifax-to-goose-bay) > > [Flights from Kastela (SPU) to Mississauga (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/spu/yyz/split-to-toronto) ### Activities ### Packages > [Cancun Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun.d179995.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [The Wizarding World of Harry PotterTM](https://www.expedia.ca/The-Wizarding-World-Of-Harry-PotterTM-Florida-Center.d6277909.Vacation-Attraction) ### General
