Plaka Hotel - Αθήνα

The staff were very friendly. The location of the hotel great, walking distance to superb eating places and historical quarters.

This was an excellent hotel. Diminutive rooms, but with everything we wanted. Fantastic having the lounge open for tea and coffee during the day, this is such a boon to the tired traveller. Fantastic breakfast. Lovely staff in the kitchen and housekeeping. Only slight annoyance was the wifi. Advertised as "free"on Trip Advisor, but in reality only one […] hour is free, and that's per stay, not per day. Puzzling, as we stayed four nights, and thought we deserved a bit more. One hour a day would be a good compromise, but unlimited, like most hotels now, would be better. But we loved this hotel, and would have extended our stay if the price hadn't gone up about 30% in the interim. Will book it again if possible, but might do it in one-day bookings, just so we get free wifi every day! Διαβάστε περισσότερα

Great location. Reasonable price. Hotel staff friendly and glad to assist with directions, cab reservations, etc. Good buffet to start the day. Roof top patio with spectacular view of Acropolis and cityscape. Metro station is only a short walk. Plaka shopping at your doorstep. Highly recommend.

We stayed at 3 hotels in Athens and the Plaka is by far the best. The rate wasn't as cheap as the others but I know why. This is an above average hotel with a superior breakfast included. The breakfast alone is worth 10 Euros each. The location and view are amazing. This would be my fist choice in this price range.

Great location in the heart of Athens. Great roof deck view of the Acropolis...be sure to check it out. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was good with a large assortment of items both Greek and typical of European hotels. Hotel service was variable...with the night manager being outstanding. Would stay here again. The only complaint would […] be internet costs whereas it is free in many comparable hotels. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

We were very satisfied with the hotel location, very close to the Plaka (market), Acropolis and other significant sights. We were able to walk everywhere. The picture on the website showing the Acropolis from the hotel roof is very accurate, and very stunning to see. The buffet breakfast was complete with hot and cold dishes including scrambled eggs, […] sausages or bacon, beans, cold salad and fruit, yogurt, cereals, coffee, tea, cappuccino, juice - everything we wanted. A very helpful local tour guide is available in the breakfast room each day to suggest walking routes, answer questions. The room was updated, very clean, however the bathroom was dated but still clean. We wold recommend the hotel and stay there again should we return to Athens. Very good value for the dollar.

Ideally situated, near Metro station on direct line to airport, within walking distance of Acropolis and Syntagma Square. The rooms are not large, but comfortable and spotlessly clean. The buffet breakfast is generous. Only niggles were the small lift and the free wi-fi being limited to 25 minutes per stay (not per day) with a 2 Euro per hour charge […] after that. But I'd stay there again. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

The view from the roof of the Plaka (where there is lots of seating and a bar) is one of the world's greatest. The Acropolis cannot be see to better advantage from anywhere. The rooms are spartan, but immaculately clean and perfectly adequate. Breakfasts are good, with the world's best yoghurt. They close tomorrow (11/17/2011) for renovation and should […] be even better. If you want luxury, this is not your hotel. If you want the other things I have noted, this ought to be your choice.

Normally my husband & I stay in hostels, but thought we would treat ourselves on this trip. The price was very reasonable & after staying at the Plaka I have to say it was so worth it! The rooms are very clean & very comfortable. Every morning there was a breakfast buffet that had a decent variety of different things to eat. The hotel is also very conveniently […] placed - walking distance to everywhere (trains, sights, eateries). The staff were very friendly and incredibly helpful. If we are ever back in Athens, we will definitely be staying here again :) Διαβάστε περισσότερα

Small European style 3 star hotel with a great location. Lovely breakfast room with ample breakfast. Rooftop deck/sundeck has view of Acropolis and at sunset bar is open to have a cocktail while watching the sunset and lights on the Acropolis. Stunning view. Staff is friendly and helpful. Close to restaurants and shopping. Can walk from there to most […] all sights of interest. I would stay there again. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

Only stayed one night as we were in transit. Excellent location for tourist sites but a bit inconspicous when trying to find it first time. Not cheap but worth it for convenience to attractions and transport systems when time is limited, (4 minute walk to monisteraki station with luggage) . Good facilities and pleasant helpful staff.

Very convenient location, especially if you are visiting Athens for a short while. The surrounding area has plenty of restaurants and the Acropolis is walkable from there. The hotel itself provides affordable no frills accommodation. Some staff was very helpful (a lady came around at breakfast armed with maps and advice, which was very useful) but the […] congierge service was of variable quality & helpfulness. Overall, would recommend the hotel on the basis that it is very good value for money in terms of location and price. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

Small, wonderful hotel close to major sights in Athens. Certain amenities were wonderful such as free coffee and tea in the afternoon. Also, there was a small split of wine waiting upon our arrival. The rooftop garden offered a spectacular view of the Acropolis, especially at night with the lights.

We recently travelled to Athens, supposedly for 2 nights, en route to the Ionian coast. Unfortunately, due to my Husband's hospitalisation, my stay at the Plaka and the sister Hotel, Athens Central Square Hotel, was extended to 12 nights. However, the Staff at both Hotels were extremely helpful and thoughtful toward me. The Plaka Hotel was in a very […] convenient position, and it was extremely clean and well maintained. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this Hotel. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

This hotel is located close to the train stations and is also close to the acropolis and all of the sights that you will want to see to the south. Our rate included a full breakfast with some spectacular Greek yogurt that we will miss dearly. The rooms were clean and everything was perfect. The staff at the front desk all spoke great English and the […] guest relations personnel were helpful. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

I have only good things to say about Hotel Plaka. Our flight was delayed into Athens due to strikes. When we arrived at the hotel at 2:00 a.m., a staff member was ready at the front desk to help us. During the next two mornings, two different staff members in the breakfast room mapped out routes for us, gave us transportation instruction and recommended […] other sites to see. With a full free breakfast, free snacks and drinks, hot water, a good bed and a convenient location, I'd easily stay here again. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

my friend and i read a few not very nice reviews of this hotel prior to making our booking but i am very glad this did not stop us making a booking at the hotel. it was lovely. not overly fancy but good value for money. clean and very central to the Plaka district of Athens. bathroom was on the small side but plenty of room to do hair and make up […] ect. a breath taking view of the Acropolus right out side the door and from the roof top bar. the reception staff were very friendly and the cleaning staff always seemed to be around the hotel cleaning something. Athens was my third last stop on a long holiday in Europe and the Plaka hotel was of a far higher standard than many of the other hotels i had stayed in, in Italy, Austria, London, Paris and Switzerland for around the same cost. i have recommended the hotel to a work mate who has since made a booking for later in the year.

Great location, right in the heart of the Plaka district, very nice breakfast, I can recommend the yoghurt. Nice rooftop balcony, with a bar service that opens around 5.30pm. The rooms however were tiny, or at least the room we were in was, 501. We were only staying one night so decided we didn't need a flash hotel as we were about to be spoilt on a […] cruise ship, but wasn't expecting quiet so small. The bathroom in particular was tiny. Never been in one so small, seriously, my wardrobe at home is bigger. Must admit the location was good and it was reasonably priced so I guess you get what you pay for. I asked for an iron, but was told that the only iron they had was out and they would contact me when it was free, which they did, but only one iron for a hotel with 30+ rooms. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

Excellent location ..the view on the top floor patio is unbelievable! Staff very nice..we had to leave for our ferry boat at 0600 am and they had the breakfast bar open for us Would recommend hotel to friends and family as well my husband and I would stay again if we should visit Athens again!

The service was excellent. There was interest shown in anything we requested and fulfilled: an Acropolis view, help in location of my wife's scooter so that it was easily accessible, request for charger for shaver and plug for scooter and finding of information about the lift at the Acropolis, even taking the time to copy information from the computer. […] Little things, but they were done without feeling that it was an imposition. We were asked if our room was satisfactory and we were comfortable. The female manager and her daughter took the time to say that if there was anything they could do, let them know, a warm gesture not usually found in many hotels. They even followed up on a wake-up call in case we missed it. The breakfast buffet was varied and quite adequate for a good start to the day. The level of high standards make this one hotel I would certainly recommend. Clean, comfortable and in an excellent location for The Plaka area of Athens. A pleasure. This hotel was booked on the internet without previous knowledge. A great find! Διαβάστε περισσότερα

brfst, Dorina the manager/ the front staff. \,the trainees/ the clean room... I have visited Hotel Plaka 3 x and actually am hoping to return next September for visit 4! I would not stay y ANYWHERE else!! loved it from first visit and happy to go back ever since!!

The price is right that the location is perfect!! As a solo traveller this hotel was the perfect place to stay in Athens!! The surrounding neighbourhood was safe with lots of convenient shops and restaurants whilst away for the noise. The staff was wonderful and extremely helpful. My room had a dead centre view of the Acropolis/Parthenon which was spectacular […] at night. I would definitely stay here again!! Διαβάστε περισσότερα

this is a great choice for all travelers! it was probably the best value for the price in Athens. I am extremely picky about two things: cleanliness and location. this hotel scored a 5 on both accounts! it was literally walking distance to all the main attractions. loved the proximity to restaurants and flea market. would recommend this to all trav […] elers!

great hotel, close to all the sights, with a great choice of restaurants close by. We found the service was great, hotel staff were very helpful. Best of all was the rooftop bar for viewing the acropolis as it lit up at night. The breakfast that was included in the price was wonderful.

ONLY THE BEST

Plaka is a great hotel that is right in the middle of downtown Athens. One warning - the rooms are very small but that is pretty much the standard for European travel. The hotel is close to everything. Walking distance to the acropolis, the main square, kolonaki, shopping, etc. Also, there is a fabulous complimentary breakfast. Would highly recommend […] this hotel! Διαβάστε περισσότερα

This is a clean hotel with a great location in the Plaka area of Athens just a short walk from Monastriki Square and the metro station. All major sites are within easy walking distance from this hotel and Plaka has great cafes and shopping. The staff are extremely helpful and courteous. The breakfast is generous. The rooftop view of the acropolis is […] fantastic, especially at night with a drink from the rooftop bar. The bathroom and shower stalls are small, but this is often the case in Europe. My only legitimate complaint was the lack of wi-fi during our entire stay. Fortunately, there is an internet cafe almost next door. Overall, an excellent hotel at a reasonable price. I recommend a room on an upper floor farther from the minor street noise. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

The Plaka hotel is very well located, close to the tourist sights and very conveniently located for those arriving from the airport by train as it is located a very easy 5 min stroll,with case, from the nearest station. I also stayed At Royal Olympic, the Athens Gate and the Plaka at different times in the same month all for similar prices and would […] say that the Plaka rated third. The breakfast room is not that inviting compared to the other two hotels and while you can sit on the roof area it is underutilized at the Plaka, with no shade, while those at the other two hotels is better set up to enjoy the view over drinks, breakfast or dinner. Still overall I would recommend the hotel to any future guest. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

Upon arrive the hotel, check in time only takes 3 mins and the staff in the front desk is absolutely helpful. In the room, we have 2 side big windows so that we would have the street view and nice sunset view. The room is small but very neat clean and tidy. Especially the washroom is so clean which gave us true refreshments. The breakfast are good and […] yummy and the small restaurant makes us feel very comfortable. We have a good stay there!

Right in the middle of Plaka. This hotel also had comfy beds and a decent breakfast buffet. Recomended.

Rooms were very small; beds were not that comfortable; front desk personnel (upon arrival)could not speak English and were not very helpful. Great location for shopping and sight seeing. I suppose we got what we paid for - next time I'll go up to a $200 / room / night hotel and enjoy the experience a bit more.

Close to all sites and great service

The location was perfect. Very close to Monastiraki station and the area around it was great, lots of good dining option. Right next to the Plaka district and short walk to the Acropolis. The view from the rooftop was absolutely gorgeous a must see. Unfortunately, there is no free wifi and 2 euro per hour is not bad, better than the internet cafe I […] went to. It was a bit expensive, but I thought it was a great hotel in a great location. Would recommend it! Διαβάστε περισσότερα

I cannot say enough good things about this hotel. Fantastic location: surrounded by shops, restaurants and just a 10-minute walk to the station. The staff was incredibly friendly, especially Tonya who did everything in her power to make our stay all the more pleasant. The breakfast was delicious and contained a varied selection. The room was spacious, […] clean and had a breath-taking view of the Parthenon. The roof was spectacular, especially at night. It was the best hotel we stayed in during our 3-weeks trip around Europe. LOVE IT! I will definitely stay here next year. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

The Plaka Hotel is situated right by the Monastiraki metro station and it easy to get to from the airport. The room was clean, although a bit small, and I had a fantastic view of the Acropolis from my window. The location is great. It is an easy walk to the Acropolis, the Tower of Winds and the Roman Forum, and there are several restaurants and cafes […] close by. I highly recommend staying at the Plaka during your next trip to Athens. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

Location is great. About a 20-25 minute walk to the Acropolis. Major metro station is a 5 minute walk. Numerous shops and cafes around. We could not control the temp in our room and slept with the window cracked all nights. We had a good view of the Acropolis from our room. Breakfast was great. The hotel manager was at breakfast in the morning and came […] to each table recommending how we spend our time. The have drinks from 5pm-11pm. The rooftop bar looks awesome when the weather is nice. Don't let the taxi drivers talk you into any 15 Euro cab ride. We fell for it and paid 15 Euro for a cab to go 5-7 miles and then at midnight only paid 7 Euro to get back. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

If your want to experience Greece, Start in the Plaka. at the Hotel Plaka. As big as Athens is, it is a walking city. After the climb to the Acropolis, a visit to Delphi, or a trip to the Islands it is a delight to just step out of your hotel and feel thousands of years of history on almost every corner, saved for us buy the Citizens of Greece, while […] you dine in one of the many restaurants just s steps away.

At a time when public transportation was on strike six out of eight days, the Plaka's location in the middle of everything was as good as it gets. It is located between the airport bus drop-off at Syntagma Square and the airport metro stop. THe Acropolis, museums, and restaurants are all within walking distance. When I opened the curtains of my room, […] there was the Acropolis in front of me. Especiall, for the money, the Plaka is hard to beat. Διαβάστε περισσότερα
