Location is great and easy to walk around the Plaka area.. Room was ok, a lot smaller than I expected with little room to fit 2 large suitcases comfortably. Also found the rules regarding the pool a bit odd - only allowing 7 people in at a time. Decent stay but would stay elsewhere next time.

What a wonderful hotel. George who works at the front desk was knowledgeable, kind and answered any questions that we had. I also have to say that all the staff at this hotel is wonderful. When you walked in they greeted you with a smile and willing to assist. The breakfast buffet was delicious and very clean and inviting. Our room was very comfortable, roomy and clean. The fitness center was everything that we needed and used it everyday. The hotel is close to everything, great location. I would highly recommend!

Very happy with our stay - we stayed in the chill room with balcony shower which had a great view of the Acropolis! Super walkable to the main sights and surrounded by lots of restaurants - we were informed to avoid the area behind the hotel, as it’s not the best neighbourhood so we stook to the Plaka end. Room itself was lovely - bed and pillows were very comfortable. Pool is great - it does get busy, so come early for a sunbed! Breakfast was super too - lots of options and my favourite part was the unlimited fresh orange juice from a proper machine! Only complaint is the confusing lift system (different lifts for different areas of the hotel - apparently it was originally 2 hotels which is now one), and the fact that the lifts were very creaky which was slightly scary… Would highly recommend this hotel and would stay here again - thank you!

The property is located near Monastiraki and Omonia Squares, with Metro stations conveniently close. The hotel staff, especially the front desk, were outstanding and the facility's amenities, including the pool, gym, free breakfast and rooftop restaurant were all welcome comforts.The room wasn't large but served the purpose (although one night we spent in a suite, long story, and that was incredible!). We were there 12 nights as it became our base for some incredible sightseeing in the region. Cannot recommend enough!

The only reason I did not rate the hotel "excellent" was because of the pervasive sewage smell on the second floor, as well as in our room. We found the reason for the smell was the vent in the bathroom floor. Once we covered it with a wash cloth, the smell went away, but it still lingered in the hallway. Other than that, it was perfect!

The room was completely different from the photos online — tired, worn, and not properly clean. We paid a premium and booked months in advance, yet were given an old room with a tiny window facing an internal wall. The elevator system is also frustrating; it takes forever, and after waiting a long time, hotel staff even cut in front of us to take luggage upstairs, telling us gruffly that we just had to wait.

L’eau de la douche coule sur le plancher de la salle de bain si vous vous servez de la pomme de douche au plafond. Mais le lit est confortable et c’est propre.

A really lovely and sleek hotel in a really walkable location in Athens. Rooms were spacious, modern and clean and the air con was great given the heat. The pool area was amazing and had a great view of the acropolis. Only downsides were the price of drinks at the bar being twice as much as the mini bar in our room (1 floor below) and the fact we told them it was our honeymoon twice and got no acknowledgment or treat.

The hotel was mostly great. It's modern, clean and stylish. The room was compact but perfect for our stay and the bathroom was lovely. The breakfasts were great, with a huge selection of items to choose from. The rooftop pool and sun loungers were so handy for when the weather got hot and you wanted to cool down (even if they were taken up quickly). The rooftop bar and restaurant was good, if a little pricey. All of the staff at breakfast, the rooftop bar and reception were very friendly and helpful. My one and only major complaint was the lack of sound insulation in our room. We could literally hear everything going on outside, including rather loud traffic noise. At weekends there were raves/house music events in venues nearby and it made it quite difficult to get some sleep.

We absolutely loved this quirky hotel which was so well positioned for the main tourist attractions in the city - the Acropolis was a 20 minute walk, for instance. The rooms were functional and clean with amazing air conditioning ( much needed), a mini bar and room to store clothing etc for a decent city break. Breakfast was nicely done and the staff were lovely. There’s a small pool on the rooftop which is next to a bar/restaurant. We had such a good meal there one evening with a wonderful view of the Parthenon. We would definitely recommend this little gem of a hotel. One improvement for the hotel would be better instructions for their showers! We had fun working ours!

Fresh Hotel in Athens is a fantastic choice for a stylish and comfortable stay in the heart of the city. The location is ideal—just a short walk from major attractions like Monastiraki and the Acropolis. The rooms are modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed with vibrant decor. One of the highlights is the rooftop pool and bar, offering stunning views of the city and Acropolis, especially at sunset. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the breakfast buffet is generous and delicious. A perfect blend of comfort, design, and convenience!

Really central hotel with lovely accommodating staff and excellent amenities, bars and restaurants. Road outside is a little noisy but that’s what comes with a very central hotel in the heart of a bustling city. Rooftop pool and bar area is particularly lovely and the meals and drinks are well priced. Short walk to all major attractions. We’d recommend getting tickets for the hop-on hop-off tour bus, as it’s a cheap way to get around when it’s really hot outside.

Very friendly staff especially Rafael at front desk; happy and willing to offer suggestions on what to do and where to go. Convenient location with hop on-hop off stop right in front of property. Very central location to walk and explore exciting areas such as Plaka and Psyri though the hotel location is on the fringes of busy area and at night it is a bit dark and lonely (good = quiet night, bad = safety considerations late at night). Overall we do recommend this hotel.
