Wonderful location and so close to the buzzing streets and Syntagma Square. Breakfast room very unhurried with a good selection of food and some helpful recommendations by the nice gentleman who looked after guests there. I had the wonderful roof terrace to myself on both mornings and enjoyed the spectacular view of the Acropolis that it presents. Truly a wonder and a great selling point for the Arethusa Hotel. I needed to check out earlier than planned and I found the reception staff and manager so helpful and concerned about this. They were keen to offer me a quieter room, but I needed to visit my friends in Glyfada who, incidentally, had originally wanted me to stay with them for my entire visit to Athens. Indeed, they came in to accompany me on both days and I was due to visit them and drive down the coast to Sounion on Day 3, so it made sense to accept their offer at this point. They are nearer the airport too and they drove me there on Sunday morning. All this detail, by the way, to assure readers that my experience with the Arethusa Hotel and staff was extremely positive! Greeks are such nice people in my limited experience - Thank you all. Best wishes!

Staff were very helpful & friendly & also recommended great local restaurant (Mezze, Athens) that didn't disappoint. The room was a good size, clean,the bed was firm & comfortable. I got to meet the hotel owner who apologised for the refurbishment works that were being carried out in the reception lobby area, his staff & the contractors were polite & accommodating in making sure that guests could still negotiate their way in & out the hotel without coming to harm. I asked why the price was so appealing & he replied that it was a quieter time of year for business. The breakfast choice was also great with both hot & cold food which was comparable to that of bigger hotels that I've stayed in. This hotel ticked all the boxes & ideal for a city break & literally 2- 3 minutes walk from the Metro & 1 minute from Syntagma Square, 5 - 10 minutes walk from Plaka & Monistiraki. I would definately stay here again.

The location is excellent, right around the Syntagma Square. Easy to reach from the airport just by metro. Nice neighbourhood that's alive always. Only downside was bathroom was a little small and there was a shower curtain instead of a cabin. But it wasn't bad and the shower was a decent size and was really comfortable. There was instant hot water. Room had everything needed, adequate walking space, a safe, water boiler and a mini fridge. The breakfast was not perfect but it was enough. The hotel had a rooftop but it was closed due to renovations (at least it what they told us). Some can be bothered by noises but I didn't think it was so bad.

The location was excellent - within walking distance of the metro and the city centre. The hotel was also conveniently located for access to the Parthenon and other archaeological sites, several museums, gift stores, restaurants, a mini market and more. The breakfast was basic and repetitive but good - if you are looking for pancakes, omelettes, crepes, eggs etc, I recommend going to one of the several coffee shops located near the hotel. I had a single room, which was compact but spacious enough for one person. Located on the third floor, the view from my room was a construction site - but it was thankfully quiet.

Perfect location between Syntagma and Monastiraki, bus stop just at the corner with bus for the airport (in case the underground is also at 2 minutes, going to airport or Pieraeus port). Walking distance to Acropoli and to every cultural site. Wide room, very comfortable mattress and pillow, fridge with bottle of water for free, kettle, slippers, bathroom with shower box (not so frequent on Greece) and bathroom set. A quality continental breakfast included in room price. Reception 24h. Baggage storage. So you have all services you really need for a very honest price!
