Athens | Hotels | €100-180

Well hidden in the narrow streets of the commercial centre of Athens, this hotel is super family-friendly as most of its rooms are so large that can easily accommodate up to four people. Some others exchange the extra space for a balcony. The reception area is tastefully decorated and the central location is a big plus.

This establishment is a glimpse of what Athens looked like not so long ago.  Built in the 30s and renovated in 2004, it is overflowing with colours thanks to the paintings that periodically decorate its walls. Personalised service with home [...]

This 10-storey building is old but its location in the commercial centre, just a blink away from Ermou Street, is a plus.  Rooms are pretty basic but should be sufficient for anyone looking to spend most of the day outdoors.  From the 9th floor, however, views of Athens and the Acropolis [...]
