Athens hotel recommendations

hotel Hera. We have stayed here twice now. Great location. Walkable to the Acropolis, metro and the Plaka and restaurants.

Great location and everything else you asked for. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there and would stay there again.

On many of my stays in Athens I've stayed at the Attalos Hotel on Athinas St.

Very nice rooms, good customer service, excellent location for everything one wants to see in Athens.

Lovely rooftop bar with outstanding 360 degree views of Athens including the Acropolis.

Having said that the last few years I've stayed at Airbnbs.

The entire tourist area of Athens is perfectly safe, day or night (and honestly, most of the non-tourist areas are, too).

I know a few places to stay that are rooftop apartments with a view of the Acropolis, but they aren't hotels, they're short-term rentals like Airbnb (we've tried some of them).

On the other hand, if you're looking for a restaurant or bar with a rooftop view in a hotel or not, I’ve put together this almost exhaustive list over the years. There might be a few spots I missed, though!

We booked the Hera Hotel based on recommendations here for 3 nights this October 9-11.

Highly recommend Niche Hotel Athens. We had a wonderful stay there, 11 adults/6 rooms, in late May:
