Gaia was perfectly located right in the main Psyri strip with lots of great places to eat. Short walk to the Monastiraki and the metro. Room was great two comfortable beds and exactly what we were looking for in Athens. Alexander was great and even gave us the nickle tour around the area and arranged a car for to/from Airport but if you are arriving at a normal time the Metro to Monastiraki stop and a 5 minute walk to the hotel. If you are thinking of a trip to Greece it was great. Crowds were minimal in the Acropolis and museums. Flying in/out of Athens was a breeze even with COVID precautions just give yourself a 2 hour layover in connecting flights.

The perfect hotel for us

Great service, the most comfortable bed of our travels in Greece, multiple USB charging points, lovely shower. The location could not have been better for us (quiet, but within a couple of minutes walk from vibrant and arty streets). Overall, this hotel is fantastic value and will always be our first choice for overnight stays in Athens.

Walking in Athens

The room was nice and the balcony overlooking the street was an added feature. The area arround the hotel is vibrant lots of restaurants and historical sites. Don't rent a car there is no place to park and in the high season you will spend a most of your time looking for one. Public transport is good but walking is a must as you will find places not on the tours. People are friendly and helpful dont hold back try a little off everything. A cab from the airport will cost you 40euro a bus which is readily available outside will cost you 6euro droping you a nice 12 min walk to the hotel.

Above and beyond!!

Aleksander and the Gaia hotel were so warm and helpful. Not only was Aleksander Forgiving when our ferry was delayed by an hour and he had to stay later on a Friday night to let us in, he also helped us carry our bags to the train station so that we would not have to wait 30 mins for the next train. I wish him the best with the hotel and completely recommended staying here.

Gaia is in a great location...just steps from tons of cool little coffee shops and tavernas. The room was nice and clean and had a mini fridge and smart tv. No frills or extras in the hotel itself but really not necessary. Alex was great about ordering us a car service for our early morning flight back.

The room was very nice and they were very helpful. This is not something the property can help, but I wish I had known before I chose it that it was adjacent to a very impoverished area of Athens. In one direction the area is fine/a typical city street. However, we were trying to walk about a half mile to a nearby museum and there were dead pigeons in the sidewalks and the street was utterly covered in litter. (No one is collecting the trash there, the street is the place it stays.) The people there were totally fine, even if traffic was a bit tense. I want to make it clear that I realize it’s a mark of my privilege that I never saw anything like it before, but it honestly terrified me to walk through it as a tourist. I felt guilty for having enough to be visiting their country while they struggled and horrified by the living conditions. The hotel itself is secure and safe—a very elaborate locking system— but please either be aware of the nearby areas or use Beat (a great ride app for the area) taxis to get around if you think it might make you uncomfortable as well.

Very good location. About 6 mins walk from Monastiraki area and station. A lot of eateries nearby. The rooms are in good condition and cleaned daily. Bottled water provided every day. The host Aleksander is very friendly and helpful. The only downside is during the weekend it can be a bit noisy at night due to the music from the bar downstairs. It's fine if you get the room on the 3rd floor. If you are a light sleeper, you might want to bring ear plugs. Other than that, everything else is great.
