Athens La Strada

Nice hotel at very reasonable price. Location is perfct.

This small boutique hotel is located on a quiet side street just off the main pedestrian shopping street. It is conveniently located half-way between the Syntagma and Monastiraki metro stations. The desk staff was extremely helpful and let us leave our luggage with them on a one-day return to Athens after our cruise even though we were not spending the night there. The room was spacious, clean and modern. There were no drawers for us to put our clothes in so we lived out of our suitcases for 3 days. The included breakfast was OK but limited variety especially with regards to fresh fruit. The elevator to our 4th floor room was tiny, only big enough for one person and a suitcase or 2 people, and a little scary, so we only used it to go up not down. Lots of restaurants and shopping near by. The neighborhood isn't as well kept as Plaka but we felt safe walking around even at night.

Great location and breakfast, wonderful Acropolis view

Obviously renovated, but they actually did a decent job of it, unlike most hotels that renovate. Very..."modern" look, which is kind of trippy, but our room was nice. Staff was nice and helpful in getting us a cab early in the morning, having to-go breakfasts waiting for us when we left, and checking on restaurant reservations. Awesome view of the Acropolis from the rooftop bar/restaurant. Tons of restaurants in the surrounding area. Easy walk from the Syntagma subway station. Only complaints: the shower looked like a pod that would take you to space with the drain not doing a great job, and there was a weird stain on the bedspread/blanket (might want to take that out of use).

Hotel was very clean and spacious. Only problem was a ramp to get to elevator and many steps to get to roof top bar. Was very difficult for me! 🙁

Stayed just for one evening. On plus side, conveniently located and decent size to accommodate family of three. But neither the air conditioning nor the WiFi worked in the room. The glass walls also had a giant crack right next to the bed (see photo). They had taped this up, but still not ideal.

This hotel is about location, location, location. Safe area, two minute walk to great shopping, great eating and this hotel has a view of the Acropolis (even from your rooftop or free breakfast area). I wouldn’t expect great service from them, they are very short but overall this is a must stay for couple night due to the location and area surrounding it. Thanks for a good stay.

Nice room, great breakfast with Acropolis View!! :)

Very nice. Clean and located in a very area of Placka.
