Best Hotels near Nelly Shoes, Central Athens

Negative points:Breakfast buffet has less variety of food. It needs to include fruit squeezer and fried eggs. Black people stay nearby. Positive points: location is very good with 2 metro stations, especially omonia where 2 metro lines interact. They are very helpful for tourist to visit interesting places like acropolis. Staff service is excellent. Indian restaurants nearby offer delicious but cheaper food.

The location is very good, just near the commercial street and two minutes away from the Constitution Square subway station. Excellent service attitude, feel at home. At the beginning, the room I was given was very small when I came out of the elevator. Later, I asked to change the room, and I changed it to the side near the commercial street. It would be a bit noisy at night. But for solo travel, this location is very good, and the business district is also more reassuring. In the end, my facial cleanser was disposed of by the cleaning aunt for some reason. The manager of the hotel even apologized to me and provided me with a solution. It has been a long time since I felt such good and attentive service! Although the room is not very cost-effective for the price, the location, service attitude, and breakfast still make me willing to recommend this hotel~!

This is an extremely nice hotel situated in a perfect location. Our stay and review are based on a Superior room You would be hard pressed to find an Athens hotel in a better location. You are right in the middle of all the action with shops and restaurants nearby. You are spoilt for choice. Although in a busy area we found the excellent double- glazed doors/windows kept any noises out and it was not an issue at all. Our Superior room came with a kettle and tea/coffee making facilities although that is not listed on their website. It may be worth e-mailing them if this is important to you. There was air-con but in March there was no need to make use of it so we cannot comment on its efficiency. The toilet/bathroom came with those tiny bottles of shampoo and body wash which we refuse to use on environmental grounds so we brought our own and used that. There was a sign saying that if the used towels were hung up then it was assumed that we were happy to reuse them. The cleaners replaced them daily regardless. The rooms were kept very clean. This hotel has much going for it. We grabbed a deal here at a very attractive price which included breakfast. The breakfast arrangements were in a fairly small area but we felt that a good selection was provided considering the space limitations. Plenty of fresh vegetable choices and delicious too. The Tomatoes and Cucumber just tasted so much better than we are used to. Cereals, bread, cakes, fruit and coffee from a machine. We looked forward to our breakfast every morning and didn’t grow tired of it. Minor gripes (being very picky). The over the bath shower was a mini battle in so much that it was prone to shoot water out onto the floor if you weren’t being careful. It could have been better but all we had to do was to adjust our showering habits and all was ok in the end. Our room had a balcony facing out to the street below. It would have been nice for a couple of chairs out there rather than just a large pot plant and the air-con unit for company. I did notice that no other balconies on other building had chairs out so perhaps that is just the Athens way. We had a Fridge in our room. Very welcome. A very close mini supermarket was the cheapest place we could find to buy water. E0.39 for 1.5 litres as I recall. We loved this hotel. All the staff were so nice and so helpful. I can’t remember all of their names but Irena and Eva come to mind. They helped make our stay wonderful. It had a curiously homely feel about the place. March time was a great time of the year as it was a pleasant day time temperature with it getting a bit chilly in the evenings. You could still dine outdoors but with a patio heater nearby. We loved Athens and have decided to return next March with the flights already booked. We will stay at the Plaka Hotel again. 5 stars from us

Had to stay in Greece for a few months. I can honestly say that i could not have found a better place to stay. The Staff were helpful & wonderful, the rooms were spacious, clean and very comfortable with all amenities close by including restaurants & transportation. The value for accomodation is excellent and i would highly recommend this hotel. One thing for sure is that upon my return to Greece i will definitely book here again. Big Thank you to Dimitri, Helen and all the other lovely staff that made my stay most enjoyable.

The location of this hotel is great especially if you're going out on the ferries. We arrived at Athens airport about 8:30 PM and took the metro (blue line) from the airport to Piraeus. Left the metro and walked across the street to the hotel (maybe 50 feet?). Left the hotel in the morning of the second day and walked across the pedestrian bridge to the Blue Star Ferry we would be going on. The bridge has elevators as well. That might have been a 2 minute walk. You can't get more convenient than that. During the other day we took the metro into the city center and enjoyed the city. OK, now for the hotel itself. Superb!! Very modern, clean, comfortable beds, and great staff. Has a good restaurant/bar and is also close to a bakery, etc. When we go back we definitely will be staying at this property.

I’m sad to read that there was this problem even ages ago, and till last week nothing has changed… I didn’t check tripadvisor before to book I’m only opening this to let the others know this problem but I’m seeing it’s an old and unsolved problem. After the orribile first night told to the reception what happened, oh ok I’ll send the housekeeper to sanificate the room, when we returned back in the evening I think nobody has never entered into that room coz the sheet were still dirty of blood. Second night again, this time they changed us the room, same problem meanwhile I was getting worst and worst and fortunately they chased just me (we were with 2 kids 2 and an half, and 8 months baby). Once again I went down to the reception and we got another room, but nothing changed. The only thing they have to do is junk everything in the bin start to sanificate and deep clean from the rooftop to the basement, then paint the wall and new everything. (We were 4 but in the first two rooms we got 3 single beds, in the last one just a doble bed)

Very satisfied, clean and cheap, away from the tourist area, but it is very convenient to take the subway directly. It is a place where locals live and experience the life of locals. Downstairs is a small commercial street, restaurant bakery coffee supermarket electronic products, etc., life is very convenient. For leisure travel, go out and cross the road without turning, walk to Line 3, it is very fresh, so it is very comfortable to walk without feeling tired. Because I ran smoothly, I lived for another day.

This was our first trip to Athens and staying here was a choice that I would definitely do again.   The convenience the Athenian offers is amazing and their attention to detail for their guests goes above and beyond.  It's a short 15 minute walk to many of desirable destinations in Athens including the Acropolis/Parthenon. The rooms were clean and well appointed with ours having a nice balcony to take advantage of.  The staff is very attentive and knowledgeable about  local attractions including places to eat.  Don't hesitate to take advantage of the the roof top restaurant  as the food is excellent and the views of the Acropolis incredible!  If your lucky enough to get Peter as your server, he will make sure every detail of your meal is taken care of and with a smile!  

We njoyed r stay. At first we were concerned about the location, thinking we were going to b close to city center. But the location is great - it is only 2 blocks from the metro, making it convenient to everything by metro. Apartment is super modern and great. The response time from the Lux&Easy team is amazing - and they were always so helpful. They r the best. The apartment is in a local neighborhood, people walking dogs, people going to work, others walking to market. Nice balcony to watch it all. Nice!

This is my second stay at a Selina Brand. Everything was on point. I gave 4 stars because of Two drawbacks - one the building works in the opposite building. They start at 8am and they woke me up, I know this is out of the control of Selina. And the second was the breakfast that I prepaid for each day. The scrambled egg looked like porridge oats but yellow. It wasn't appealing and not nice to eat. The staff on reception were very helpful. I stayed in a private room and my room was cleaned regularly and they gave clean towels. What I did like there was a mixture of both young and more mature travellers from different cultures. There is an awesome family run Mezze restaurant opposite which only during the day. Highly recommend to try. And there is another good restaurant also family run on the next street. There is a lot of Graffiti and Street Art in the area. Don't be put off as the area is very safe. In fact there is a lot of Graffiti across Athens. Go on a Street Art Tour and you will be educated on the history of street art and why it is done.
