The reception staff were excellent and extremely helpful. The hotel is less than five minutes walk from the metro station which: is easy to reach from the airport; has a direct line to the port of Piraeus; and three short stops to the Acropolis. You can also walk to the Acropolis area from the hotel. There is an excellent bakery and good cafe next to the hotel. The room was spotless and the bed very comfortable.

Very close to Omonia Square & Metro. A few late night eating and drinking options. Cheap clothes market close by. Excellent supermarket, bakery and pharmacy close by. Not a bad base for exploring the city. Americans will almost certainly describe this area as "sketchy" because of the graffiti, drug users and homeless, but the local police were always visible. Welcome to post pandemic Europe folks ! Comfy beds. Free shower gel. Strong WiFi. Fridge in room. BBC News on TV. The staff we met were all very friendly and helpful. Yes, you can leave your luggage. Metro tip - it is well worth buying the 72 hour Metro ticket for €20. It becomes "live" when you first validate at the airport station. You get unlimited "swipes" in and out of the Athens Metro within 72 hours including your final departure journey to the airport. (The single fare into the city is €9 !) Also, when you arrive at Omonia via the Metro, (probably after changing at Syntagma,) walk forward along the platform, in the direction of travel, to find the best exit. (We unwisely used the "rear" stairwell but the two exit gates would not let my wife through and she was stuck here until the next train came in.)

The air con was an unexpected bonus for us but it wasn't particularly strong. The rooms are very compact as is the bathroom. Three people in three single beds with luggage might struggle. TV remote was problematic but not a big deal. Shower door was missing but Greek bathrooms all have floor drainage anyhow.

I had a pleasant stay at Hotel Elikon. The room was clean and the atmosphere quiet, making it a relaxing place to rest. Its location is very convenient—perfect for walking around and exploring the area. Overall, it is a great value for a simple, comfortable stay. The front entrance staircase is quite high, which made it a bit challenging to carry my luggage. However, the staff were very quick to come and help, which I really appreciated. Their prompt assistance made a big difference and left a positive impression.

One thing to note: the road behind the hotel, especially on the left side, didn’t feel very safe at night. I’d recommend sticking to the main streets after dark.

We liked the hotel. If you are like me looking for a clean, safe place in the city center to stay and spend the whole day exploring this remarkable city, this is a great place for you. Close to the metro and airport connection, quiet at night, there is a kettle for hot water, coffee and tea and excellent friendly staff. There is no problem with hot water in the bathroom either. I would define the place as a basic hotel with excellent value for money. Very close to Omonia Square, the surrounding area has buildings under reconstruction,, but we did not have any problems. The hotel has a 24-hour reception.

Stayed here before so as expected. Warm welcome at reception and the guy helped us with our luggage. Probably the smallest room we’ve had here but ok for an overnighter. Firm beds, tea/coffee/kettle, good air con., small but manageable modern bathroom, nice towels and toiletries provided. Picked up a hairdryer and extra pillow at reception. Lovely little balcony with seating although time/weather meant we didn’t get to use. Located just off the square - down the side of Venetti so easy to find. Omonia has seen improvements and a few big name hotels have moved in. Still a bit sketchy down side streets but easy to avoid. A short walk down Athinas Street to reach Monastiraki. Don’t be put off because of Omonia’s reputation. The area is improving.

All as expected.

Kettle, tea/coffee provided, large fridge, lots of towels, more pillows provided upon request, someone always on reception (all very good), not disturbed when "do not disturb" sign on outside of door but maid very happy to assist when asked, decent size room (three beds) and balcony, and decent size bathroom. Very quiet, supermarket almost opposite, taxi rank and metro only a three minute or so walk.

Quite a few stairs up to reception from street level (not much they can do about that) but there is a lift to other floors. Our room had a step up into the bathroom which was a bit disconcerting. The shower glass door was a bit short which meant that the bathroom floor and bath mat got wet even before getting out of the shower.

We stayed here for 3 nights and it was a perfect choice for a city break in Athens. The location was great, we walked everywhere. The hotel is simple, but very clean and comfortable. There is a 24h reception and the staff is super nice and helpful. The beds were very comfortable. We had a small fridge in the room and that was so great to have all water and other drinks kept cold. There was no problem with leaving the luggage for a few hours on the last day. Overall, a great value for money and an option to recommend if you want to stay close to the center of Athens.

The management / reception team were extremely pleasant and accommodating. Stored our luggage for us so we could continue to explore on our last day there. Great location to catch public transportation. Grocery store, café and restaurants with in a few steps of the hotel. The property was absolutely spotless. Beds were very comfortable. The rooms come with a kettle and refrigerator - an amenity I always appreciate.

Nothing that the property owner has any control over i.e. traffic noise. We opted to sleep with the window open so we got street noise. Otherwise, a wonderful property - no complaints at all.

If your expectations are not too high, this is a good place in terms of value for money. Omonia Square and the metro station are just beside. There are bakeries and snack shops open 24 hours in the square. There is a large supermarket in the side street where the hotel is located. Syntagma and Monastiraki squares are within a 15-minute walk. We stayed in a room with a bathroom and toilet for three people. The furniture is a bit old, but clean. There is 24-hour reception service, and the staff is quite helpful.

Perfect location to all sight seeing locations especially for walkers. Omonia metro station just metres away and plenty of bakeries to choose from. A crockery market is also just metres away. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was just right size for a solo traveller and a nice little balcony to enjoy your meals and a drink on.

Unfortunately the noise from the homeless people down in the street could be heard at all hours even with the balcony door shut. Bathroom was a little bit of a squeeze especially if you have long legs and use the toilet.
