The Plaka Hotel is a real find. It is ideally situated at the foot of the Acropolis and is amongst ,or within easy walking distance, of many of Athens attractions. It is on the corner of a small side street just a hundred yards or so from the metro station that is at the end of the line from the airport. Some bedrooms do have a direct view to the Acropolis.
The hotel staff are friendly and helpful and the accomodation is generally clean and modern. Our room was quite small but not so much that it was a problem. There was an adequate amount of storage space. The bathroom was small and a bit dated but ok, considering the price! We paid £33 a night for a double room with breakfast and thought this was a real bargain. Make sure you compare sites for prices as they vary considerably.
The breakfast was quite basic but included ...
Advantages: Good views from my room Disadvantages: Breakfast was disappointing
close to his flat and discovered this little place. It looked nice enough on the website so we thought, 'Let's go for it!'
We arrived in Athens on the Saturday evening and once we had met up with my friend, we grabbed a taxi to take us to the hotel. After becoming completely disorientated during the taxi 'experience' I was a little scared that we would never be able to find our way back but first things first, we had to check in. This was quick and smooth (the advantages of paying in advance) and we caught the lift up to our floor.
Our last trip away saw us staying in a very nice 4* hotel in Prague (see my other reviews) and we weren't sure what to expect in this place as although listed as a 3* hotel, the price was closer to that of a 2*. However, first impressions were good. The room was quite spacious and looked to be recently ...

since been challenged. Why you would want to, I don't know, but it would make for an interesting mediation and negotiation session.
As far as accommodation goes, there is an enormous Holiday Inn in the centre of town - if you can't find a room here, you're struggling. But even if they are full, for whatever reason, there are still a few variously scary motels and hotels scattered around. Being a city where the focus is on living rather than touring, the selection may be limited, but it's not a resort town, so if you're after five-star luxury, you're better off somewhere a bit fancier and less student-oriented. The Holiday Inn we stayed at was perfectly adequate - comfortable, reasonable-sized rooms, without being ornate. It's pretty much the standard motel room you'd find anywhere. Not terrific, but not bad either.
