Best Hotels near School of Philosophy, 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 service was great 👍 The reception staff were all very friendly, cooperative and service-oriented. Unfortunately, the swimming pool and Spa were not in use due to renovations. We knew that about the Spa, but the indoor pool would be open. That was a disappointment for us, we had chosen the hotel specifically for this. But the solution offered (free use of taxi or bicycle) made up for 95% of this. We had a very nice meal, it was a bit of a shame that we were the only guests.

Everything was perfect in this well located hotel. We travelled with a dog and they were very accommodating. The room was very comfortable, clean and with full amenities. We will definitely return soon!

Dave's Hotel Athens is a great hotel for those looking to experience a new type of hotel with there cool industrial look. I had seen some questionable reviews, which left me with some worries surrounding the hotel and its location. I am happy that I gave the hotel a fair chance to impress me, The gentleman (Sadly missed his name) that welcomed us was extremely kind and happy to help us and do what he could to ensure we were happy. We stayed in room 802, This was a lovely room, a little small for a long stay but for the 3 days we had booked it was more than comfortable. We loved the little quirks in the room with red lighting, record players, and many more. The TV had a good range of channels and the bed was extremely comfortable especially the pillows. The only negative was the aircon that was controlled by a receptionist and was a pain to get keep calling to get it correct temp sorted. The surrounding area was a little run-down but you can see that they are starting to renovate the area, I think in a year or two it will be easier on the eye and more appealing to tourists. A couple of homeless people and a couple of odd characters but nothing you wouldn't get in any capital city across Europe. We did not ever feel in any danger or worried about walking around the area. The hotel also had a great rooftop with a Hot Tub that was open 24/7. Overall Great Hotel to stay at I would definitely try it out for something different to experience and the price is great.

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.

This was my second stay at Athens Center Square Hotel and it was as good as the first. Location is fantastic in the old marketplace with a great restaurant at the corner and easy walk to Monesteri and metro. It is a budget hotel - so don't expect luxury and can be a little rough around the edges, but the price is good and the staff is fantastic. From the roof-top bar you get as good a view of the Acropolis as you have from any luxury hotel with friendly service and good prices at the bar. Breakfast included in the rate and was excellent with a large variety of fresh local items plus standard international options. Highly recommended if you want great value, comfortable rooms and fantastic staff. Not luxury, but my choice in Athens every time!

Great location as all main tourist sites (including Kerameikos and Filopappou Hill) were walkable - also outside the main tourist area, which was a plus. Roof terrace also pleasant at the end of the day. Hotel facilities are limited: WiFi, internet tv only (on mine you had to log in with your own details), aircon, tea/coffee, free bottled water. Cold breakfast option (set price of €10 - not €8 as shown on the website). Airport pick-up is now also €50 (more than shown currently on website). Rooms modern but.mine was starting to look slightly tired. In theory it was a ‘suite’ suitable for four (two small rooms) but this would have been extremely cramped, particularly as each room had only a ‘space saver’ type wardrobe ie. wardrobe rail coming out from the wall with a mirror in front and no other storage and a sofa bed in the ‘living room’. Despite the website description of each room with (only) a power shower, mine had a shower over the bath. Service was average: front desk tried to be helpful but local knowledge was lacking. Bed was made each day, but tea/coffee/water were not refreshed and used glasses and mugs were not cleaned. Despite this, towels WERE refreshed daily and there was no option (card or other mechanism) to get this stopped. I was surprised: it seems that saving water and energy had passed the hotel by entirely. In conclusion: compared to other prices and areas of Athens I paid a reasonable amount, but given the reviews had expected more from the hotel, although I couldn’t honestly say that it was bad, just ‘average’.

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!
