Hotels with Gym and Fitness Centre in Athens

The location of this hotel is really great, near Syntagma Square. The X95 airport bus stop is just a 5-minute walk away, and the metro station is also nearby. The price is quite reasonable. There’s a free buffet breakfast, but no hot food 🥹. The room is spacious, but the bathroom is quite small 😅. The only downside is that there’s no complimentary bottled water, and the room is filled with chargeable snacks, drinks, and alcohol.

Olympus Residence is a comfortable and modern place to stay in Athens. The apartment is spacious, clean, and equipped for a short stay. Just starting to show some age but the beds were comfortable, the air conditioning worked well, and having kitchen and laundry facilities was a definite plus. The location is in a pleasant, quiet neighbourhood. Most of Athens’ major attractions, including Syntagma Square and the Acropolis, are around 1.5–2 km away. This was a good walk for us, but travellers with limited mobility or those wanting to be right in the heart of the action may prefer somewhere closer. There were a few areas that could be improved. Communication before arrival was disappointing. I contacted the property several times to ask about the possibility of an early check-in, but several messages went unanswered, including a call to the listed emergency number. I eventually received a response only after sending a text message to that number. Better communication would make the arrival experience much smoother. The kitchen was functional, but the utensils and cooking equipment were very basic. Anyone planning to prepare more than simple meals may find the kitchen somewhat limited. Overall, despite the communication issues and the basic kitchen setup, the apartment was clean, comfortable, and offered good value. With a few improvements, particularly in guest communication, it would be an excellent place to stay.

The hotel's location is super convenient. You can take the X93 bus directly from the airport to the Gephyra bus stop, which is the same place as the Koto Patisia metro station. The hotel is just a block away across the street once you get off, so the location is fantastic. Taking the bus is even easier than the metro. I was pleasantly surprised the moment I opened the door. The room was very spacious, and the facilities were new and well-equipped, with two balconies, one at the front and one at the back. The kitchen even had cookware. There are plenty of supermarkets and bakeries nearby. The only slight annoyance was having to fill out personal details to get the check-in code for the apartment, and I wasn't thrilled about having to use their specific payment method for the few euros due upon arrival.

My first dinner experience was very satisfying; the food was delicious, including the complimentary bread and breadsticks which were unforgettable. However, when I went back a few days later, something seemed to be wrong. The menu was smaller, and the service had deteriorated.

Quite modern entrance hall and room (bathroom for disabled was not our choice). Reception friendly and provided good recommendation for late dinner. The first morning I woke up by very loud cleaning personnel. Walls are paper thin and door not soundproof. You hear everything. Breakfast terrace with nice view. Pool terrace too small and only available for some hours if slot pre-booked. Music, food and shisha on the rooftop club/restaurant quite okay.

The hotel reception is spacious by Europe standards. Checkin was seamless however we had to pay for taxes at the time of checkin. Took a little while to work out the lift as the doors don’t open automatically. You had to manually open the front door to get into a reasonable small lift that catered for 2 people and 2 luggage. It reminded me of an old school type lifts seen in movies. Rather cool. Rooms looked newly renovated and modern. Pod Coffee machine with illy pods, desk, a single chair and a wall hung tv. With this said, we had a room facing the road and whether the windows didn’t close properly or the windows were very thin with no sound proofing, but the noise from the road was bad. We were on the 5th floor and every car that went by, we heard. The heavier vehicles were worse. Does not work especially if you are a light sleeper. Breakfast was average with comparison to many other hotels around the world however I would say quite sufficient by European standards. Precooked eggs, scrambled, boiled and sunny side up, basic cereal and fruit selection and bakery was a bit dry. Omelette made on order. Staff in restaurant were excellent and extremely helpful. Location was excellent for this hotel as it was walking distance from buses and train, restaurants and some markets. Communications with its reservations team was shocking. Even after 6 emails with regard to a future booking, I did not get a single reply. Eventually met the hotel manager and had the issue resolved so a big thanks to Ms. Maria. Overall, comfortable apart from the road noise. Would I book again, will not be my default hotel so I may be looking at other hotels but would not rule it out completely.

It was a really pleasant stay at the Brown hotel. Excellent location, really kind stuff. Room was clean and warm. And the manager Stive is there to make a difference in the positive way with all his help. Enjoy

Our first trip to Europe, so there were things that I imagine are very European. Tiny elevators and key card access to power your room were a first for us. We were only there for one night before leaving on a cruise, but overall I was very happy with our stay. The front desk check in was excellent and the breakfast spread was outstanding. The loud returning guest at 1:30 in the morning were the only irritant, and that was bad guests and not the hotels fault.

The front desk service was exceptionally good! I really felt the warmth and relaxed vibe of the Greek people. I arrived at midnight, and a gentleman at the front desk greeted us with a very friendly smile. He carefully explained that the food on the 8th and 9th floors of the restaurant was exactly the same, but the 9th floor offered better views! He also mentioned the gym was on B1 and breakfast was from 7:00 AM to 11:00 AM, which was very thoughtful. My friend sent me a bouquet of flowers, and he even helped deliver a vase to my room – so considerate! When I got to the room, it was quite spacious, and the bed was very comfortable! Waking up in the morning, the biggest surprise was the incredible view from the rooftop restaurant and pool!!! Absolutely worth it! The ultimate scenery! Breathtaking! Breakfast was plentiful! Very satisfied, enjoying breakfast with such a beautiful view. The restaurant has three sides of floor-to-ceiling windows and a large terrace with views from all three directions! This was simply amazing! Some of the facilities in the room were a bit old, which didn't affect the stay itself but did impact the overall experience, especially the towels! They were too old, which was a bit hard to accept, but everything else was fine. The hotel's location is excellent. Taxis to places like the Acropolis, museums, or generally the city center were all around 6 euros. Very convenient. After a 5-day stay, it was still very good! I saw stunning sunsets from different spots in the city! One from Mount Lycabettus, one from a temple, one from the Grand Hyatt, and one from the Panathenaic Stadium! Athens in June is beautiful! Although the city feels a bit run-down, it doesn't detract from the happy and relaxed atmosphere of the people 😌

Skylark Hotel Athens offers a generally positive stay, with a few aspects worth highlighting. The hotel, which previously operated under the Brown brand, has retained much of its boutique, design-led style, creating a pleasant and contemporary atmosphere throughout the property. Its location works well for visiting central Athens, and overall it represents fairly good value for the price segment. The guest rooms are relatively compact, so travelers who need a lot of space should keep this in mind. However, the layout makes sensible use of the available area, and the decor and furnishings feel modern and comfortable, making it suitable for short city trips. In terms of noise and cleanliness, the experience was satisfactory and allowed for a restful night. From earlier visits, the breakfast stood out as a strong point, with notably high quality and variety for this category of hotel. On the most recent stay, breakfast was not tried, so it is not possible to judge whether the previously high standard has been maintained. In summary, Skylark Hotel Athens is a good option for guests seeking a stylish base in Athens with a reasonable price-to-quality ratio.
