Our room was very nice and the staff was very helpful with a medical issue we needed to find help with. Phone calls were made and we were able to get the help we needed. We enjoyed the view of the Parthenon from the rooftop and it was a nice place to get together with our group that was traveling together.

The room was very clean. The only downside is during the winter you’re expected to open your windows, and the neighborhood is a little loud due to all the restaurants and clubs nearby.

Liked: Prime location steps away from Kerameikos metro station Friendly, welcoming staff and seamless check-in Handy room amenities (fridge, toaster, and safe) Fresh housekeeping every two days, which suited our schedule perfectly Reliable air conditioning throughout the stay Disliked: Only shampoo and conditioner were provided in the bathroom (no body wash) Detailed Review: My partner and I stayed at Athenian Spirit for a week and had a wonderful experience. The location is the standout feature, as being right by the Kerameikos metro made navigating Athens incredibly easy. Check-in was quick and painless, and the staff were consistently friendly and helpful. Our room was comfortable, and having access to a fridge, toaster, and safe made a 7-night stay much more convenient. The air conditioning was more than adequate to keep the room cool, even if it did not get quite as ice-cold as I personally prefer. Housekeeping visited every two days, which was ideal for us. Just a quick note for future travelers: pack some shower gel, as only shampoo and conditioner were supplied. They do have some earplugs which I only contemplated using on the last night as the upstairs neighbour was a bit noisy. Overall, a great base for exploring Athens. We would definitely recommend it!

I visited the Athenian Spirit hotel for the fifth time and after staying in dozens of other Athens hotels - this is my top choice so far. And having extensive experience in hospitality I cannot hide my admiration that the Athenian Spirit management keeps the high standard and excellent quality of services and amenities. Well-connected with the whole city, in the middle of the cultural Gazi area and the party zone around it, the hotel makes your stay as enjoyable as possible. My only recommendation - provide 2 key cards for the hotel guests - they don't cost much and it is easy to manage their return. Using just one card by guests with different agenda and time schedules is complicated. So I hope to get back soon and take advantage of everything Athens and the Gazi area offer.
