The hotel has such an amazing view of the acropolis. Conveniently located amongst cafes and bars. What stands out are the staff who are amazing. Vicky is well organized and super helpful. Night shift Yalliss (sorry for the bad spelling) carried my bags which were heavy down four flights of stairs and was so kind. An amazing team of hospitality professionals

Hotel was quaint, clean, and our room was spacious. The location was perfect for us, right in the center of all the action! Tons of restaurants, shopping, hop on tours and rooftop decks for Parthenon viewing. We walked to the Parthenon from our hotel. It’s loud and bustling and hard to find in the middle of this popular district. Thankfully, they arranged transfers for us. Wonderful trip!

Liked the service. The place is a bit worn. They still have old fashioned single use soap and shampoos. Should switch to refillable ones.

This was a wonderful small hotel set in a small plaza with dining and shopping close by. The staff was pleasant and answered all of my questions and suggested places for dining and shopping and provided maps of how to get to where I wanted to go. We had a room with a balcony that overlooked the plaza-when we had morning coffee on the balcony we saw the Acropolis. Beautiful! The Church of St. Irene was mere feet away. Our room was clean, had a coffeemaker, and there was a cabinet in the hall for guests to take bottled water, fruit, and additional coffee. A fantastic place to stay in Athens!

The Executive suite had such a great view of the Parthenon and the room was a good size. We loved that it was in Monistiraki which is right next to restaurants, bars, etc. Great location for night life and convenience, along with walkable location to the Metro subway. The staff and manager were super accommodating and friendly. We also got free water bottles and drinks to take with us wherever we went.

The hotel is conveniently located in the city center, making it easy to navigate the area. We were fortunate to have a view of the Acropolis right from our balcony, which was a highlight. The room we stayed in was unique, spacious, and clean, though there were some minor challenges, like the lack of a curtain in the bathroom. Despite that, it was a very pleasant stay overall.

The staff was superb! They were very friendly and helpful. The property itself needs a deep cleaning and significant repairs. It looks and feels absolutely nothing like the photos on Expedia. We arrived expecting a charming, clean, four star boutique hotel as advertised, and instead found a grubby one or two star property… it was a very disappointing end to a great holiday. Heads up: The noise from the bars and restaurants next to the hotel lasts well into the night — bring noise cancelling earplugs.

The hotel was in a great location, and the room was huge and well appointed. The staff was pleasant and helpful with transfers from the port and the airport. Unfortunately, our entry door was unable to lock, meaning we didn't feel safe leaving our luggage unattended, and we found bed bugs in our bed.

Check in was great, and the location is amazing with a lot of shopping and dining options around. However, had to move to a different room the second night, as my first room woke me up in the middle of the night with water leaking from the ceiling all around the bed. They couldn’t move me that night as the hotel was full and had to sleep on a cot, which was quite uncomfortable. However, they upgraded me the next day to a suite with an amazing view. Unfortunately, there is also a lot of mosquitoes in the rooms as well.

If you’re looking for a place to just sleep this is it! It’s right in the middle of shopping and dining establishments. In walking distance of the areopagus. However the bathroom was SMALL and the sink wasn’t attached to the floor. But the staff was great!

This is a VERY NICE moderately-priced hotel that my wife and I stayed at for several nights before and after our cruises. It is a HIDDEN GEM surrounded by cafes and a short walk to the Plaka and other shopping. The Acropolis is also close by. What made it so special was the WONDERFUL treatment and FRIENDLINESS of the staff. Dimitra, Vicky and Lia took excellent care of all our needs, offering suggestions on how to improve our stay. They made all the transportation arrangements for us. The hospitality shown to us was the BEST we can remember at any hotel. If we ever get to Athens again, here is where we will stay again. We highly recommend the Emporikon Athens Hotel.

We started our Greece Honeymoon here at Emporikon Athens Hotel and we had a wonderful stay. Vicky the host helped us get settled and even helped cover our taxi fare when we didn't have cash and the driver's card reader was broken. The location cannot be beat in the center of Plaka. I would highly recommend this hotel for a classic Athens experience.

The room I was given was a loft, while this type of room was not indicated on my booking. It was quite uncomfortable to climb up a narrow ladder. As a gold Hotels.com member, I normally get room upgrade free of charge upon availability. I did not ask for it, however the receptionist informed me that there is availability and insisted for me to pay an extra amount to get an upgrade. I did not, because firstly I thought I would be happy with the room I had booked and also because I would expect the upgrade free of charge. Besides the above, the room was clean and the location is great.

Amazing service at this centrally located hotel. The wonderful staff definitely make this hotel! They could not have gone more above and beyond for their guests. From the time of booking they were contact to ensure the best trip possible. We had slight issues- a leak in our room after which we were promptly moved, to loud noises coming from the streets- which we could now hear as we were lower down, the staff did everything possible to make out trip enjoyable. Definitely recommend!
