    Disappointed in the description of the area of hotel which overlooks a highway, AND IS NOT In GLYFADA! Not a good value

    The location is desolate, no supermarket, restaurant shops close by. The description lists location as Glyfada, which it is NOT. You need to take the bus or taxi to Glyfada, For anything. Breakfast was Very Basic & not worth the €7.00. Small bottle of water would be nice upon arrival for guests. I was charge .50 cents. Similar hotels include Breakfast , are close to town and less $. The room was so small that when you came out of the shower you would hit the toilet, no Grab bars dangerous as floor of shower Slippery. The price of taxi to airport was similar to what I paid from Athens City Center.

    Bus stops close to hotel.

    It would have been better if there was an option of cooked food in the evening as the nearest restaurant is 2km away. As mentioned though there is a bus stop right outside the hotel and a ten minute ride takes you into the centre of Glyfada where you are spoilt for choice.

    Breakfast was okay but nothing special. Hotel itself was in a decent location and the staff were extremely helpful. It's an oldish hotel now but still good and has character. Very convenient to take a short taxi ride to the metro station Elliniko into Athens or Piraeus or a short bus ride into central Glyfada.

    The noise from the motorway was unbearable in the night :( if not that noise, I would rate it as 10. Perhaps thicker windows would solve the problem

    The room was much better than seen at pictures, and actually close to perfection!

    Ok for short period of staying.

    • Double or Twin Room with Side Sea View
    • Stayed 1 night

    The moment we checked in and got into the room, a strong smell of cigars hit us, as well as closed air inside the room. The Hotel is located 30-40 min walking from Glyfada Center, therefore you don't have any place close to grab a bite, you will need to count on either walking/ taking the tram to Glyfada or the center or ordering.

    The location of this Hotel helped me the most, as we stayed only 1 day in Athens and needed a place to rest, shower, and be able to run back to the airport. You have right across the street the Tram that will take you to the Center of Athens but also the BUS station that will take/ bring you to/from the Airport directly. It accomplished all my needs for 1 night's stay. Although located very close to the main street, once the balcony doors closed - the noise fades away and you can have a very quiet sleep (I am not bothered so much by noise ). Basic amenities are offered in the bathroom, and although didn't have breakfast included, I could enjoy a coffee served by the Receptionist :)

    The hotel feels like it's in the middle of nowhere next to a very busy road. A long way from anywhere but the upside was the van we found about 15 minutes walk away which sold excellent hot dogs. The room was extremely basic. Bunks and a single bed, rather than the double we'd expected. The bathroom was pretty basic too. Oh well, you get what you pay for.

    Nice breakfast, very convenient location for the airport, very basic but not expensive so you make allowances. Friendly staff.

    very noisy street, all night long (crazy fast driving motor bikes) several km of beach has none or restricted access due to major demolishing and (hopefully) reconstruction work for years to come (we did not like the endless fences in 2023)

    Room 320 is top floor, nice large arond the corner balcony, sea & harbour view and sun-set view towards Aegeus harbour.

    They didn't clean regularly, didn't take the rubbish daily only if you asked them. But if you asked for these things the staff was really very kind and helpful. It was very kind of them to allow us to drop the luggage before check in time and also keep them for the whole day after check out.

    The hotel is OK for a 2 star hotel. It is close to beaches which are easily accesibile by tram. The tram stop is just in front of the hotel across a target busy 3 by 3 lane street. Bus stop is also in front of the hotel.

    The mattress. the noise so we had to keep windows closed, but one gets used to it so no problem sleeping. I had to pay my meal in cash, whilst there is visa sign on the door.

    The double mattress was worn so one could feel the metal. No breakfast included but coffe and te (with ecological lemons right form the trees) and ham and cheese toast made to order any time :-) . Light room with big balcony two orientations. In spite of language difficulties we communicated well with the owners. Bus A2 right out side. Tramstop 5 steps away. very convenient.
