Athens hotels near Monastiraki Flea Market

Pros: The hotel is absolutely beautiful, from the stylish modern lobby to the sleek, well-appointed rooms. We were on our honeymoon and the staff went out of their way to make it special. They upgraded us to a suite with a view of the Acropolis and sent us welcome drinks and snacks. They also recommended a fabulous restaurant (Dionysus) and made us a reservation for a beautiful table. There was a lovely breakfast buffet included in the price of the room and we enjoyed eating at the hotel restaurant and having drinks at the intimate on-site bar. Overall, this was an excellent experience and we would absolutely stay there again. We didn't want to leave!

Pros: Location Friendly staff

Pros: Title says it all, what more could you ask for...

Pros: Highly recommend this hostel!! We stayed for two nights and it was amazing. Very clean and the staff were very nice and gave great recommendations.

Pros: clean, quiet, good beds, staff were sooooooooo friendly, soooooo helpful, roof top bar/lounging area was so quiet and romantic, looking right at the acropolis. hotel right in the old town of Athens, the ancient agora. been to Athens many times, 2nd time at Plaka Hotel, will only stay there from now on.

Cons: nothing

Pros: This is a respectable hotel, that gives good basic services to it's guests. It's overall advantage is it's location. Stay at Plaka Hotel and all of Athens is easily available to you.

Cons: I have nothing to complain about.

Pros: The terrace has a beautiful view of the Acropolis and the location is very close to restaurants, bars, and other places you would like to see and visit.

Pros: The Plaka Hotel is the best place to stay in Athens. It is centrally located and has a spectacular view of the Acropolis from the rooftop patio. It is close walking distance to the major tourist sites, shops and restaurants. Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and have air conditioning. Breakfast is a must do in the morning. While enjoying your delicious breakfast, you can get friendly information and advice from your hostess. First week of May is a perfect time to visit Athens. Temperature is around 24C to 27C. Visit the National Archaeological Museum (10 Euros) and Athens Academy of Arts if you like to take pictures of statues. Laundry service is also available.

Pros: The friendliness of the staff and how helpful they were all the time; they gave us tips to move around and help us to keep our luggage even when we've already checked out. The hotel is well located with many important places (most-visited historic attractions) at walking distance; also great was having a convenient small market next door where we could get fruits, beverages, baked goods, etc. The breakfast were very good, as well as the views from the roof lounge.

Cons: The maze of streets – if you're driving a car there, it is hard to park and easy to get lost in the many one-direction streets.

Pros: Rooftop terrace view and Elsa our bartender. Efharisto!!!

Pros: Location and price for the main advantages of this hotel.

Cons: The immediate neighborhood is a little bit seedy, but this did not bother me.

Pros: Staff helpful, clean.

Cons: Room was a bit small but worked

Pros: Roof deck, attentive service, location

Pros: Modern, sleek and elegant design, beautiful rooftop pool, lovely breakfast, easy to walk to sites.

Cons: The location felt a bit edgy at night.

Pros: I thought the hotel was great, nice modern interior, fantastic location, 5 minute walk to Monastiraki Square, room was pretty spacious and the rooftop pool was small but still refreshing after a long day of touring. The breakfast was fantastic, a great spread!

Cons: The pool was a bit small and the rooftop bar was pretty overpriced, but otherwise no complaints!

Pros: Rooftop bar/ restaurant with views of the Acropolis. Room was clean with the 3 beds we requested. Location was convenient to all tourist destinations.

Cons: Bed was not super comfortable.

Cons: This hotel is located in a very bad part of Athens. When we were checking out and going to a different hotel, Fresh Hotel refused to provide a refund for the day that we did not stay.

Cons: Very heavy use of incense in the lobby; poor soundproofing making it noisy; getting dated.

Pros: They have a very nice breakfast.

Cons: The difference between a standard room and a luxury standard room is virtually zero. The rooms generally are extremely small. The hotel is situated in a dirty, rough part of the central city with prostitutes and thugs on the street. Management seems to believe that their guests are lucky to stay there. I gave this hotel a second chance about a week ago. Never again.

Pros: The area was very near the city center with a great view of the Acropolis. Staff were pleasant and helpful.

Cons: Room was on the small side and the breakfast was mediocre at best. Avoid the charge and eat out. Plenty of good places nearby.

Pros: 3 minute walk to the metro station and a 5 minute walk to the center

Pros: We stayed only for one night to discover Athens. The hotel's location is great. Nice restaurants are around, city center and metro is very close and easy to reach when you walk. The rooftop bar has a amaizing view to the achropolis!

Cons: Checking in was fine until the moment we walked into the elevator. Now coming from the US maybe it's a thing, but the elevator states it could fit 4people vs reality you could fit you and your luggage comfortably (if your claustrophobic I advise take the stairs). On top of how small the elevator was there was no door so you saw the elevator going up so now you have to make sure you aren't so close because you'll probabaly get hurt. We get out of the elevator the hallway already gave me the impression of how outdated the hotel is. It looked like a scene from a horror movie. The light flickers on once you walk towards your room and it's not a very comfortable atmosphere. We walk in to our room and was SO dissapointed. Our room looked NOTHING like the pictures posted, was very outdated and had 2 twin beds when booked I asked for 1 bed obviously we're a couple. We called the reception and without even finishing our sentence rudely he shut us down. Walking into the bathroom it was so small, the tub was small when we showered all of the water was coming out with the curtains sticking to our bodies. The lights to the bathroom wouldn't even turn on without flicking the switch on and off a couple of times. Let's just say the room was so outdated we had to ask the reception how to flush the toilet and ofcourse answered so rude and acted like we were crazy and said "you press the button" obviously we know that but there was no visbile button. Once a employee comes in who was probabaly the nicest one there he showed us a big item above he show which had a syringe like button to press. You'd think having tourist from around the world they'll be more lenient on explaining things coming from the US that is not something you see everyday. Aside from all the dissapointments we refused to sleep there and slept over at our friends hotel because of all the dissapointments we had. We even checked previous reviews to go by to make sure we didn't miss anything and we didn't. The pictures they have are updated and the rooms look nice, not sure if they just gave us a VERY outdated floor/ room but I will never suggest anyone to stay here. I'm sure there are much better options available around. I never do reviews but I had to share my experience so nobody else can make the same mistake as I did. Aside from the hotel itself the location is near everything but the neighborhood isn't the best I'd becareful at night. This hotel seems to be a hotel where you'd want to stay for emergency purposes and have no other choice. Or if your into hotels that remind you of a motel on the road. If your looking for somewhere for romantic trip, relaxation, or anything you'd like to enjoy don't stay here.

Pros: Staff was very helpfull and location was great.

Cons: It needs to be renovated. Room was too small and all furnitures were very old. I had a view of the wall of the next building.

Pros: Très bien placé : à 5 minutes de la station de métro Monastiraki donc à proximité des grands coins touristiques (Acropole, Place Syntagma, à 15min du Pirée,...). Petit déjeuners très agréables et copieux de plus avec produits frais (yaourt grec, fruits, fromages et charcuteries) seul bémol : pas de jus de fruits frais ! Roof top et terrasse du restaurant donnant sur l'Acropole : excellent !!! Confort des chambres mais salle de bain exiguë ! Personnel à l'écoute et très serviable, communication facile en anglais !!! Très bon hôtel !!! Nous y sommes restés 7 jours !

Cons: Pas de jus de fruits frais, salle de bain exiguë
