The breakfast menu was good and the bathrooms were clean and private for just our room of 6. Front desk staff was lovely and very helpful!

I loved my 8 night stay at the City Circus. The building is beautiful and my room (4 bed female dorm with en-suite) was spacious with a locker large enough to fit my suitcase into. Bed very comfortable and all staff are awesome. Note that it isn't a party hostel. Guests range from young to old, all with different reasons for their Athens stay. The night manager is very strict about noise - quiet time in the communal areas is from 23.30. Open plan kitchen is very useful. The street itself is quite tatty (albeit in a very fun and safe area) like much of Athens and there is quite a bit of street noise. The building is historic and they're not allowed to add modern soundproofing. I live in central London so noise doesn't bother me much but please bear this element in mind if you're looking for lots of peace and quiet.

It's a wonderful hotel, located at the center of the city. All major tourist attractions are close by. All the stuffs are wonderful. I will highly recommend Tasos for his extra ordinary customer service.
