The best experience we had while traveling in Europe ! The staff was amazing and sooo nice ! I had issues with my hair straightener and one of the staff members offered to go buy it from their shopping center and bring by the end of the day . He even put the receipt inside the bag . He went out of his way to make sure I feel good during our stay . All staff members were amazing ! The breakfast was delicious and the rooms were super clean.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible hotel in Athens, and I can honestly say it was another incredible travel experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome – warm, professional, and genuinely attentive to every detail. The location couldn’t be more perfect. Nestled in the heart of the city, we were just steps away from historic landmarks, charming cafes, and vibrant neighborhoods. Whether we were exploring the Acropolis, shopping in Plaka, or simply strolling the local streets, we always felt close to the action but still had a peaceful retreat to return to. Our rooms were spotless, modern, and beautifully designed with plenty of natural light. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the view from my window was simply breathtaking. One of my favorite parts was the rooftop area – perfect for a morning coffee, breakfast, or evening drinks with stunning views of Athens. Breakfast was a daily highlight: fresh, delicious, and full of local flavors. The hotel also offered helpful recommendations for restaurants, tours, and hidden gems that made our stay even more special. Athens itself is a magical city, but this hotel truly elevated our trip. We left feeling relaxed, inspired, and already dreaming of our next visit. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable, high-quality stay in Athens!

The Athenaeum Luxury Hotel is true to its name. A true luxury experience with impeccable customer service, gorgeous facilities, a newly renovated and clean room, and an amazing breakfast in a breathtaking roof top, this stay exceeded our expectations. From the moment we stepped in, we were not only greeted but properly taken care of. The staff is wonderful- genuinely friendly and interested in ensuring that you have the best experience in Athens. The convenience of the location is amazing- everything within walking distance. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a hotel in Athens to consider this one. Thank you!

From the moment we arrived, all the staff were so friendly and willing to go the extra mile. Our room was clean and spacious and had amazing views. The hotel is in such a great location. Almost everything you might want to visit is located in about a 20-30 minute walking distance. The roof top restaurant was beautiful, the food was delicious and decently priced. I highly recommend the Greek salad! Breakfast was also delicious and it made us feel very special that the restaurant staff remembered our coffee order every morning. Overall we had a wonderful stay at the Athenaeum and would definitely stay again in the future.

I was prepared for the tiny room but they could have made it so much better with simple things like hooks for toilet bags and hand towels. They could have provided drawer space in some of their furniture, like bedside tables. Space was not used efficiently but we loved the people at the hotel.
