Great staff - everyone we talked to at the property were pleasant and very helpful. We booked a quadruple and with the renovation, we were moved to their sister hotel which was just next door, and we were escorted over to check in. We arrived in the morning and we were already allowed to checkin which is a great convenience, letting us rest and change before going around. The hotel is by the square with flea market. The Acropolis and museum are walking distance. We had fun going around the flea market, seeing some of the ruins around Acropolis, and had a lot of dining options.

Great place

It was such a great location . The rooms were clean and the view we had from our windows of the Parthenon were breath taking. Everything seemed extremely well kept and a remodel was still taking place of the kitchen . We did have to go across the street to have breakfast but it wasn’t that inconvenient. The only complaint was the elevator was so small that basically only 1 person or 2 could fit. Again it was centrally located and was so close to the acropolis, plaka and right outside was the hop on hop off bus

This place was pretty amazing. The staff is super friendly and can arrange anything you’d like, from taxi’s to tours. The place was clean, the AC worked, the view was amazing, the breakfast was 5 stars. The breakfast alone was worth the price. Plus the location was central to everything, amazing food all around you, bars, flea market, whatever you wanted. Recommend this place if you’re looking to stay in Athena for any amount of time. Please be sure to get the breakfast.

The hotel is going under Reservations so the lobby area was kind of a mess of stacked boxes and construction materials. The entry of the side street is very understated. Almost missed. But I will tell you that I had a room with a balcony that looked straight at the Acropolis and it was spectacular.

We were accommodated at 360 Degrees Hotel (sister hotel) as A for Athens was under renovation. The communication process was excellent and we couldn’t fault the staff or amenities as they were so close to each other located at Monastiraki Square. The rooftop bar with acropolis view was amazing!

Beautifully remodeled rooms, well appointed, great views. Perfect location for what we wanted. Monastiraki square right across the street, all the shopping and restaurants you could want. All the Hop on/Hop off tours had a stop right there. And a 15 minute walk to the Acropolis main entrance. Only criticism, the fire/smoke alarms had a very bright flashing light on them that was directly over the bed, very distracting to sleep with.

We had a wonderful stay at A for Athens. The views over Monastiraki to the acropolis were magnificent. The room was very comfortable and remarkably quiet given the busy area just outside. The highlight of the hotel, however, was the reception staff. Friendly, incredibly helpful and always available. We'll definitely stay here again on our next visit to Athens!
