Athens hotels in Koukaki

Pros: The view and the shower were awesome.

Cons: Ac was weak, sufficient but took a while to get the room cool.

Pros: Easy access to everything in Athens. Wonderful rooftop restaurant with the perfect view of the Acropolis.

Pros: The lobby was beautiful with artistic wire statues and a bar/restaurant with trees growing through it. The staff is very professional and tries to be very helpful (though both times I stayed at the hotel there was not a doorman to greet me and carry my luggage up the steps). Gorgeous rooftop bar and a nice jacuzzi area on the floor below it.

Cons: We stayed at the hotel 2 nights--one at the beginning of our trip and one at the end. The first room we had at the beginning of our trip literally reminded me of a hostel I'd once stayed at--the bed was a hard board looking thing with a gross looking red coverlet (not even a comforter). We also did not get one bed but instead, two twins pushed together. When I returned on the last leg of my trip I mentioned this but they only had one room left and put me in an equally bad room (only after accidentally giving me the key to an occupied room). This room at least had better beds and bedding but because it was on the first floor, it had no natural sunlight (blocked by the building) and made me feel as if I was staying in someone's basement. It was also a smaller room than the first and we struggled to find a place out of the way to put both of our suitcases. The air conditioner also leaked water. It's a shame--beautiful hotel but sadly the rooms are not up to par. Perhaps at $200 US dollars/night I didn't spend enough to get a nice room?

Pros: The location was great. Close to restaurants and tourist areas.

Cons: Breakfast was okay but expected a bit more for the price.

Pros: Great value for money, well located close to the Acropolis, nice common areas and pleasant breakfast room. Rooms are well equipped and very clean.

Cons: Bathroom a bit dated, but very clean. No issues. Room had no view, but for the money, more than acceptable.

Pros: The location of the hotel is great, with easy access to the Acropolis, Acropolis Museum and the Acropolis Metro. Make sure to ask for an outside facing room as some rooms can be small and cramped. The downstairs lobby area is very nice with a good atmosphere to sit and talk or to read/write.

Cons: Sometimes the rooms can be cramped and dark. Sometimes cab drivers can't locate it, but just tell them to drop you off by the Acropolis Museum and you can navigate it easily.

Pros: This is the perfect location for exploring Athens. Safe Street, restaurants and shopping nearby, immediately adjacent to the modern and magnificent Acropolis museum. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The rooms were very quiet and the rooftop view of the Acropolis is spectacular.

Pros: Very comfortable beds,a great view of the Acropolis,clean rooms.good breakfast buffet

Cons: no complaints,but rquest a room on the Acropolis side,not the street side.

Pros: the central position

Cons: the noise in the room

Pros: Good situated within Athens, but noisy traffic for the front rooms on first floor.

Cons: Asked for an upgrade to a bigger room and got the answer that all rooms have the same size which wasn't true as we could see by passing some rooms where the door was open. Well, we arranged with it.

Pros: The hotel was ideally located, in a quiet area with lots of restaurants nearby and the Acropolis museum metro stop. It also had a rooftop garden and jacuzzi with a stunning view over to the Acropolis,which was ideal for relaxing away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Athens. Clean, comfortable and good choice of food at breakfast time.

Cons: As other customers have already commented, It would have been nicer if the Jacuzzi was free to use (at the moment its costs EUR5 for each 15minutes)

Pros: Comfortable room with an excellant view to the acropolis. Quite and nice surrounding with a short walking to the centre of the city.

Pros: Firstly location: very close to Acropolis and Plaka district. Almost in front of touristic bus (nbr 400) stop. Then we liked because we asked through the website a room for 1 couple and 1 adult with view and they arranged exactly that. And finally good service and a beautiful terrace facing Acropole, with also 2 jacuzzis.

Cons: Not really.

Pros: The roof top terrace and the lobby area with the reading materials.

Cons: No.

Pros: I have stayed in many hotels around the world and I must say the Herodion was easily one of the best. All the staff were extremely helpful and very professional. The presentation of the hotel felt like 5 stars and the food was amazing. My wife and I have every intention of staying there again should we go back to Athens on holiday.

Cons: The only minor points that stopped the Herodion getting full marks in every aspect was that the bed in the double room was actually two single beds pushed side by side and the pillows/matress was a little hard.

Pros: Location

Pros: Nice clean rooms - the rooms opposite the Acropolis are better in terms of layout and balcony space. (obvioulsy the view from other side is great) Roof top garden space is excellent

Pros: Located walking distance to sites, transport, and the older part of the city.

Pros: It was at a premium location, we had a view of Acropolis from our balcony. Very clean. It was in a residential area, so nice and quiet at nights.

Cons: The lady serving in the breakfast room was making too much noise when putting away the crockery.

Pros: Personal was very kind and responsive

Cons: Wi - Fi didn't work in our room

Pros: position is good

Cons: my room is the first room next to reception, too annoying and too loud outside

Pros: All our comments relate to the Herodion Hotel, sister of the Philippos Hotel. The hotel management had very kindly upgraded us to the Herodion for the same price as the Philippos because our airline (BA) caused us to arrive 6 hours late, well after midnight.

Cons: The beds were a little bit harder than we would have wished.

Pros: good position, the room was clean and quite comfortable.

Cons: i couldn't pay with my credit cards, only with cash money

Pros: That it was in good location.

Cons: Hotel Staff not speak good english and very helpfull, breakfast really bad, room extremely small and dirty, too expensive for what you get.

Pros: Thursday morning desk clerk tried to confirm my airline flight.

Cons: I would have liked help dragging my heavy bag up the front stairs.

Pros: Clean, neat , very close to Plaka

Cons: Small rooms, receptionists should greet their costumers, be more friendly, there is a feeling that you bother them.

Pros: The staff was sooo nice. We arrived quite late and they did not bat an eye. One morning we slept in and missed breakfast, they served us anyway and did not charge us an additional fee.

Cons: The bed was a bit hard.

Pros: Excellent location very close to the Acropolis in a nice little residential neighborhood. There is a Spar supermarket down the street and a small convenience store on the same block. We found our room to be very comfortable. We had a balcony with a nice view over Athens. I would definitely stay here again.

Cons: The bathroom was a bit impractical: when you shower, the water goes all over the floor. Also, the sink is very shallow.

Pros: Close to Acropolis & main sights Clean & comfortable Courteous staff

Cons: Breakfasts, although varied in selection, were poorly prepared.

Pros: Our second stay at Divani, and it was lovely. The staff offers excellent service and is very attentive. The location is the best as all major sights can be easily reached by walking or the metro. the room was fabulous. I would highly, highly recommend it to all. on the night of the August full moon, we had dinner on the patio. we overlooked the acropolis and it was very memorable

Pros: Staff was incredibly helpful. I was traveling with my father who had a cane which lost a piece of the device. The staff gave us excellent directions to a nearby hardware store As we needed to replace it before leaving for a cruise.

Pros: Beautifully decorated and clean room and helpfull staff

Cons: Breakfast was too expensive

Pros: adequate city hotel

Cons: rtaher lifeless

Pros: it was not realy what i ecpected from i 5 star hotel

Cons: when they mention that its possible to add a bed in a room then they should be ready for it and could organise

Pros: Location was great, the room was very nice, with a balcony.

Cons: The roof deck was closed, one of the biggest selling points on the hotel. Also, no transportation service available to/from airport.

Pros: As our room was in the building that was recently renovated, the facilities were brand-new. The location is convenient to visit Acropolis.

Cons: We were annoyed by their house-keeping services. Everytime they cleaned the room, they forgot to supply glasses and cups. And the most disappointing thing was that they didn't clean the room one day even though I put on the 'make up room' light and even asked them to clean the room over the phone. When I returned to the room in the evening to find the room had not got cleaned and complained, the lady didn't apologize. She dared to say it was because I had put on the 'do not disturb' light, which was not true.

Pros: Location and professional staff

Cons: Very bad beds, sheets and blankets. Almost 'YMCA level'

Pros: roof top restaurant overlooking akropolis

Pros: the location; the room; the staff

Cons: shuttle (does not exists)

Pros: excellent location

Cons: staff was forgetful

Cons: breakfast buffet is not that great and everyday is the same.

Pros: Great place with the basics if you don't need the frills of a fancy hotel. The rooms are clean and comfortable with mini kitchenettes and private bathroom. Breakfast is included and fun sports bar and laundromat right downstairs to hang out and meet other travelers.

Pros: clena and great location with a good buffet breakfast

Cons: the price is a little hig and bathrooms are a little old (but clean)

Pros: Amazing location near the Parthenon, the Acropolis museum, the metro, and the Plaka tourist shopping area. Plenty of tavernas, gyros, and gelato nearby. Our room on the 3rd floor was nice and quiet. The bed was comfortable so I got a very good sleep. The full breakfast had many choices - breads, cereals, eggs, meat, cheese, yogurt+honey, feta+cucumber+tomato, fruit, etc.

Cons: I wish I could stay longer!

Pros: Excellent location. Steps away from the New Acropolis Museum. Steps away from a pedestrian only street with lots of restaurants, coffee shops, and street performances. Very close to the Acropolis and the Metro station. The pedestrian only street allows you to go all the way around the Acropolis and see other antiquities such as the Agora and the Thiseum. Excellent free breakfast with 50 different dishes. It is a full breakfast, not a continental breakfast as is it appears in the description of the hotel.

Cons: Nothing. It was better than I expected.

Pros: location

Cons: breakfast

Pros: Location is good. Very close to the Acropolis and near Plaka.

Cons: Could use some updating and room could have been cleaner.

Pros: The prompt help of the staff in order to solve the variuous problems

Cons: The fact that it was very cold in the room during the night and we were told that if outside is warm the hotel doesn't turn on the heating! Very original, but quite cold to have a nice sleep!IT'S Not at all a real 4 stars hotel, but only a 3 (greek way)! Poor choice of breakfast, no fresh fruits, only frozen ones!

Pros: Giota was exremely helpful and nice as were all of your staff. Giota went out of her way to see that we were well informed and helped.

Pros: Location

Pros: In the end, good service

Cons: We had assumed, based on photos and text, that the Parthenon hotel had views of the Parthenon. When we arrived, it had views of a blank wall a few feet away. After some argument with the reception they admited to having one room with a partial view, which we took.

Pros: The location was great and the staff were great too

Pros: Nice clean room, near to the places we wanted to visit

Pros: The breakfast served by the hotel was excellent.

Cons: No.
