Transit hotel

This a good transit hotel, certainly not a 5 star, 3 star maybe. It is the middle of nowhere, good free airport transfer, nice rooms and friendly staff. I will stay there again if I am in transit not to visit Athens.

Overnight before early flight

I arrived late (after the hotel shuttle stopped running), and left early (before the shuttle started), so add 60€ to the price of the room. At that point the hotel at the airport becomes a competitive alternative. What little I saw of the hotel looked fine.

Great value

Rooms beautiful and the location relative to the airport with free shuttle was perfect. You have to book the shuttle early to get a spot though. The pool isn't heated given its indoors which is disappointing and doesn't have lounge chairs around it. 2 free high speed internet computers in waiting area was great

"Perfect for Airport Hotel"

This hotel was very convenient to the airport, however it was not close by anything else. I think for us it was ideal as we only needed it for the night before an early flight. There was a charge for the internet, however we did not use it as it was only for one night. The staff was polite and the restuant there was nice and average price for Athens, and food was decent. The room was nice and the beds very comfortable.

Things you should know

The hotel was nice, but I am disappointed in the shuttle service provided by the airport. Since this hotel is considered an airport hotel, I think that they would be more accomodating. The shuttle bus only runs from 5:30am to 9:30pm - so this is an issue if your flight leaves at six in the morning. Now, there is a express city bus - that you can pick up across the street for 5 euro (runs about every 20 minutes, but that might be only in the high season - not really sure. It just would have been nice if the hotel specified their shuttle bus hours/schedule on their website. They should also mention that the hotel can be reached by express bus. And the location of where you can pick up the shuttle when at the airport, would be helpful. If you didn't take the shuttle or the express bus, you can taxi (that is if they are not on strike) but it is 30 - 35 euro so you might as well just pay a little extra and stay in the hotel on airport property if you have an early or late flight. I will say the room was nice and large, but the bathroom shower looked as if it had not been cleaned in a few weeks. Also, don't recommend staying here unless you don't plan to be out in the city. The metro system is great and takes you directly from airport to city in less than 45 minutes - so it is not really worth it to stay at hotel unless you are in for just a night and need to catch a flight.

Check the timing of your flights before you book this hotel. Free shuttle bus only runs from 5:30am to 9:30/10pm. Therefore, if you are booking for the sole purpose of using the shuttle you should know it does not always run.

basics missing

My flight got in at 11:30pm and the hotel shuttle stops running at 7pm. The taxi driver had to be forced to take me to the hotel by the airport taxi stand manager because the hotel was too close to be worth his time. Then he drove 140km/hr while texting! And he wanted me to pay for putting my luggage in the trunk! I don't think so! My hotel room had no information about breakfast and no informational booklet about the hotel. I had to go down to the front desk to ask about breakfast at the hotel restaurant and see if they had a fitness room. My bed had no flat sheet, just a sheet on the mattress and a thin comforter. There was no clock and no washcloths in the room either.
