Great spot to stay in Athens! Felt very safe the entire time, lots of great options to eat nearby. AC didnt work in the room but that wasn't a big deal. Rooftop patio is excellent but it is all BYOB and no bar on site. Hot tub was nice and clean up there and open 24/7

Good location to visit main sites, about 20 mins walk max. Area directly around the hotel a bit run down but good eateries and a shopping centre close by. Room was functional, nice to have a terrace. Big shower and good sized bathroom. Towels weren’t always clean. Big bed.

It’s difficult to get a good night’s sleep when there is so much noise from outside and the hotel walls are so thin. Added to this is the black out curtains are not wide enough to blackout the light. The breakfast is okay without being special. The rooftop patio is very nice and the views are great. The best part of the hotel.

Great Stay for city break

We enjoyed our stay at Dave Red Athens. We arrived very late due to a delay in our flight, but we had a smooth check in. The room was a little on the small side, but this was fine as we knew that we'd be out & about most of the day. The shower//toilet was only separated by a glass panel which meant that most of the bathroom got wet but again not too huge an issue. Room was clean and quiet. The area was a little perhaps dodgy, I wouldn't have felt comfortable as a solo traveller walking back late at night, but I felt safe with my husband. Very convenient for the tube.

Not kids friendly. Small rooms

After a weeklong, stay with two young kids, I wanted to give a honest feedback. There are two reasons I say, not kid friendly 1, the bathroom walls are plexiglass, even though you can't see through clearly you can still see a outline of the body. My daughter did not want her brother or me looking into the bathroom. This required me to put her in a private room something I do not like doing while traveling in foreign countries. 2. Even though they advertise a smart TV. You're limited to channels only, the smart features do not work. . The few English channels cater towards the adults after 9 PM. There was no appropriate channels for young children. The second issue I had, even though the description of the rooms include the size. Not all rooms were the same size and when you added the bathroom, desk and bed into the room, you have a limited space to walk around your bed. we had no storage under the bed And one spot in the desk. The desk is also your closet if you are traveling with two bags expect to keep one bag in the walkway. Some other disappointments we encounter. The hot tub is designed for two people. The bar is closed. Breakfast is offered only. Hotel staff were very friendly. Location is OK. Police department across the street. Recommend walking in pairs when leaving the hotel we didn't have any issues, but there is some drug usage in the area. We were charged €150 per night per room. A fair value would be €60-€75 per night.
Bathroom takes up most of the room
Smart tv no internet ir apps
See though wall into bathroom

The hotel is well located near Omonia square. It is surrounded by buss lines and within a five minutes walk from a subway station. There are eateries open 24/7 and while being located across from a police station means there's no parking at all, it also means you're completely safe and secured without any shady monkey business going on. The staff is kind, knowledgable and attentive. The hot tub on the roof is grand and the view of the acropolice nice. The gym is basic, but it is there. If you are a gym type of person, consider bringing resistance bands to supplement your options.

Surprisingly very pleasant

Due to the reviews we were a bit skeptical about the location. Turns out we didn’t see anything too alarming, not the best neighbourhood to hang out but it was okay. The hotel itself was actually very nice, staff were nice and helpful, we managed to use the hot tub even in winter. My favourite part was definitely the bed! What an amazing mattress.

Decent room for the price.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. They upgraded me to a room with a balcony. The room smelled like cigarettes but was easily aired out with the balcony door open. The breakfast spread was pretty decent, however not much for a vegan to eat aside from Toast and fruit. They had a machine to fill water. You can’t beat the price of $45 a night. The hot tub was warm and the view from the rooftop was lovely

Room design is very impractical. Bed size overwhelms room and is impossible for two people. Bathroom is small and again impractical. We were in another which would work for two people, but the Foxy Deluxe room is dank, disgusting and dingy! One person could tolerate the room. There were many decorative pillows that in photos looks exotic, but in reality they camouflage the flaws of the room and over crowd a tiny room filled with too much!

Amongst a lot of things the bed had bed bugs. I stay in a lot of hotels, at least fifty over the last two years, and never had an issue anywhere in the world. I noticed the many small pimple like bites mid stay and thought they were mosquito (unusual mosquito bites I thought) but when I got home I googled it and the bites are that of bed bugs. Bed bug bites can take a few days to manifest which makes the timeline correct. Also other issues. Room Space is tiny - don’t block the areas with a pointless record player and a clunky desk lamp. Coffee cups - why - no coffee maker. Wardrobe space is over the desk so if you have work to do, your jeans will be ticking your head. Two tiny cupboards for clothes. Breakfast is very basic.

Wardrobe space is over the desk so if you have work to do, your jeans will be ticking your head. Two tiny cupboards for clothes. Breakfast is very basic. Bathroom door is extremely squeaky and loud. Advertised that there was a bar, something I like in a hotel as like a nightcap in safe surroundings but the bar is permanently closed. The area, although not appearing safe, is safe but those who are faint of heart probably won’t like the characters who hang around the area. Police station opposite which probably helps.
