Hotels near Temple of Olympian Zeus in Athens

We returned to this hotel for a second visit because it is so nice. Rooms are modern and comfortable. The view is unsurpassed: you have the Acropolis on one side and the Temple of Olympian Zeus on the other. The location is perfect for sightseeing. It is a five-minute walk to the Acropolis Museum. Lower floor, street side rooms can be a little noisy, so you might consider some ear plugs or asking for a room on a high floor. Breakfast is amazing! There are hot foods and cold foods and lots of pastries, all quite good. I especially enjoyed the Greek items: spanakopita, tiropita, dolmas. The elevators are tiny and can be bottlenecks at times.

Great location in walking distance to the Plaka and the Acropolis. The roof top terrace is sensational with spectacular views across Athens and to the Acropolis & worth staying just for this experience. Dinner and breakfast are both served on the terrace & the food is very good. The hotel looks smart but showing some wrinkles around the edges. My room was quite large with a good sized outside terrace. But the room has a great shortage of power points for plugging in devices and I had to use the bedside lamp plug. The bed is two twins which I don’t like & the bath / shower had nowhere to hang the shower hose & the bath was very narrow. The wifi is very slow. There are a few English channels on the TV. The hotel is very popular with tour groups & so gets quite crowded, busy and noisy. But a pleasant stay, conveniently located with the terrace restaurant view the outstanding feature.

This hotel is really good, not rare in Europe! The hotel is located at the end of the Zeus Temple, at the end of the food street. Walking to the Acropolis and Syntagma Square are 1 km away. The way to the Acropolis is full of restaurants and shops, very convenient. The hotel's facilities are complete with slippers, shampoo, conditioner, soap, shaving foam and lotion. Just bring your own toothbrush and toothpaste. A kettle and tea bags are provided, and a small fridge can store the food you buy. The decoration of the hotel is also very delicate and clean, and the service is very good. The overall feeling is that there are four-star standards in China. It is really rare in Europe! It’s hoping to write a lot of useful information for my friends, because I also like the travellers who leave detailed and true comments.

In January, my husband and I booked a room for September 2023 for two nights. We made the reservation online using our American Express, the account we have used in the past for European travel. One week prior to our reservation, we received an email informing us our reservation was canceled. No further explanation. First, we contacted AMEX; they did not place a hold on our card or intervened in any way with this reservation. We called the hotel twice and were told to reserve again. The dates are no longer available so that wasn't even an option for them. They claim they did not initiate the cancelation. Three emails later and we have no answers and no reservation. Traveling from the US, this is beyond frustrating. It looks like a nice hotel and the location looks appealing as well. Be careful, though, and have a back up somewhere else.

Advantages: This youth hostel has moved to a new location a few hundred meters away. The hardware conditions are much better and there is an elevator. Free breakfast is at the coffee bar downstairs, bread, cake, milk, juice, cereal, etc. There is a public computer on the first floor, which can print boarding passes for free, and comes with a chargeable shared laundry room and a luggage storage office for foreign business. There is a standard room in the optional room type, which can accommodate two people, which is a relatively cost-effective accommodation. Disadvantages: A few hundred meters away from the Acropolis subway entrance than the original site. There is no curtain; the bathroom is in the room. I don't like this the least. People in a room can't open it. The stove is also in the room. Fortunately, there are kitchen utensils, knives and forks, which can cook things. Without oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, cooking can't work. The most complaint is to insert the card to get electricity. This youth hostel should be a remodeled hotel to have the operation of inserting a card to get electricity. If it is a single room/standard room, it is no problem to insert the card to get electricity, and you will live by yourself. But in a multi-person dormitory room, inserting a card to get electricity is a bit of a pull. You insert your room card in the electricity-taking slot, and someone else goes out and takes your card away intentionally or unintentionally. You don't know who did it. One night, my card was inserted in the room, and when two people left the shop early the next morning, my card was taken away, speechless.

It has become my favorite hotel! About 15 minutes walk from downtown. The view of the Acropolis from the rooftop is insanely high. I got a room with a bathtub, but I was surprised at how well located it was.However, the people in Athens were kind and I would like to go there again. Very highly recommended. There are also ruins from 300 BC underground. This is a hotel where you can feel the history.

The best quality/price apartment suite in Athens city centre according to my experience. It's just 3 minutes walk to the Acropolis museum. The rooms are quiet thanks to 2 separate double glazed windows (equals 4 layer glazed windows). Stylish and clean indoors fully equipped with basic amenities and kitchen furniture. The management is friendly and helpful; you can arrange the room cleaning day and time with them easily. Highly recommended.

Absolutely wonderful week stay at Woo Suites. Perfect location. Suites are lovely. 24 hour on-site staff. Breakfast great. Wonderful staff especially Angeliki, Chrisoula, and Stelios. Very, very clean. Wonderful historical sites, museums, restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Bus ride to ocean or staff will help you get there, in fact staff will help with anything you need. I know Woo Suites is more than many hotel options in Athens but after walking around Athens, I sure was glad we spent the extra money to stay here.

With a stay at ROH Suites in Athens (Athens City Centre), you'll be a 5-minute walk from Temple of Olympian Zeus and 8 minutes by foot from Syntagma Square. This hotel is 0.7 mi (1.1 km) from Acropolis and 0.7 mi (1.1 km) from Parthenon.A complimentary full breakfast is served daily from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM.The front desk is staffed during limited hours.Make yourself at home in one of the 10 guestrooms. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.

Location Excellent for reaching all the main sites. You can walk to the base of the Acropolis in around 10 mins and all the highlights are within a 30 min walk. Outside the door are a number of cafes/restaurants that are open from 8am for breakfast until late at night. You definitely won’t want to rent a car as the streets are tiny and hard to navigate even for experienced taxi drivers! If you want dropping off, it is easier ask taxis to take you to the temple of Zeus as this is on the main road and you can walk through the side streets for 3 mins to get to the hotel. The surrounding streets are filled with every restaurant, cafe, ice cream shop and souvenir shop you could possibly want. Check in and out We arranged an airport transfer in advance with the hotel for €38.50 and would really advise doing this as the driver met us in Arrivals and the hotel staff met us on the side road and brought us and our luggage to the main door as cars can’t drive down the streets immediately surrounding the hotel. The man on reception was very helpful and gave us a map. We asked for a taxi to be booked to our next destination and this was arranged for us easily and the whole process was very quick. The hotel was extremely quick to respond to emails I sent. Hotel You have a small kitchen upstairs, but this did not seem to contain anything other than tea to drink. There was plenty of crockery and cutlery if you wanted to buy food and eat it there. They have made an effort to make the entrance and stairs pretty and welcoming. The outside is also very attractive. This is not a hotel suited to those with mobility issues as the rooms are accessed up some twisty internal steps. It wasn’t too noisy at night, with only a little noise from the restaurants, but you do get some noise from street buskers and other people opening and closing doors. Room The room is very spacious for a city centre room and had all the expected amenities. There is a safe, but it is very small. The bed was very comfortable with thick pillows. The decor is tasteful if perhaps a little plain. We felt very at home in the room. The main thing we would suggest improving is that both the room door and toilet door were very stiff and required slamming to close and noise carries quite a bit there as the doors have frosted glass panels. The room was cleaned daily. We had a city view room that looked out over the square. Bathroom There is a hairdryer and nice toiletries provided in the bathroom. The only thing missing was liquid soap as they provide bars instead so bring your own if your prefer it. There was a walk in shower and no bath. We would return if we wanted another city break in Athens.
