No frills 3* hotel in great location. We had a small double room with en-suite. Facilities basic but very clean. Decent size bed. Aircon (slightly noisy but guess just not used to it - didn’t need it much anyway at end of May). Free toiletries and coffee making etc in room, fresh towels daily. Small balcony with table and two chairs overlooking the street. Buffet breakfast had wide selection available. All staff very friendly. Excellent central location for exploring all areas of old Athens and main tourist destinations. Metro about 6 minutes walk. We tended to shut the balcony window at night to keep out the street noise, although that varied. Would be very happy to stay again.

TO AVOID - BOOK ANYWHERE ELSE

If you're looking to travel back in time, this very old hotel in Athens might do the trick; unfortunately, it felt like the last time it was cleaned or renovated was in Ancient Greece. The room I got looked nothing like the photos. Everything from the furniture, curtains, and bed frame were worn and stained, and the antique A/C unit could not keep up with the extreme 40 degree summer heat. To make matters worse, you need to leave your key at the front desk whenever you go out, which cuts the power to the room, turning it into an oven by the time you return. I also found bugs within the room and bathroom several times, and lastly the elevator is so old it was probably designed by Aristotle. I lasted half of my planned stay and checked out early to stay at another hotel. Save yourself the trouble and book literally anywhere else!

Hotel between 2 convenient metro stops. Very little space to put clothes if you want to unpack. No dresser drawers, just a shelf. And incredibly noisy all day and late into night! But maybe that is just Athens! View of Acropolis from balcony was nice but you had to put up with loud motorcycles and music if sitting out there. Breakfast is included - lots of choices, both hot and cold. Staff is knowledgeable about transportation options and directions.

Comfort, location and quantity!

Beautiful hotel with a stunning view of the Acropolis! The room was very clean and the beds were comfortable. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. The hotel is in the heart of many restaurants and shopping! I’m so glad we chose the Carolina!

Staff were wonderful except for one instance. Breakfast is awesome…. I don’t like to waste food but had an early tour and did not have enough time to finish plate…. I wrapped up a few small slices of salami and cheese (2 each ) so it would not get wasted. Staff embarrassed me by acting like I was stealing food. It was mortifying. There are cameras watching you as you eat breakfast.
