The Elite Hotel is in a perfect location; just 3 minute walk to Omonia metro station. The room is very clean. The receptionist, Mr Gewrgios Armatas is one of the best. He helped me a lot as my passport and all my money were stolen on the same day of arrival. He assisted me a lot, he called the police for me to tell me what to do next. He even gave me some money to buy food until one of my friends sent me some money on his own account. Mr Gewrgios went all the way to the nearest ATM to withdraw the money and gave it to me. Also, Mr Costas, the other receptionist, was great as well. He helped me to print -for free- some of the documents required to issue the travel document to go back to my country. Honestly both of them were super. Thanks a million Mr Gewrgios and Mr Costas. Definitely I'll stay in Elite Hotel every time I come to Athens.

Nothing

An interesting downtown hotel with a hard-boiled atmosphere. A conscientious hotel with good service. Unfortunately, in the Plaka district, or rather in Athens, there are some hotels that collude with cab drivers and take profits from them, but this hotel does a good job and is free from such corrupt ethics.The location of the hotel is in Omonia, so your evaluation will depend on whether or not you can accept the feeling of abandonment, but this is a pleasant hotel. It is not a luxury hotel, of course, but it is solid.

If you choose a room with no outside light, it is very dark, so the city side is better.

The Elite is a simple, cheap "local" Hotel and performed that role well. It isn't a 5-star resort, but that wasn't what I needed - it is a comfortable bed and a filling local breakfast, close to Omonoia Square for the Metro, the Hop-on busses, and other facilities. The bathroom was constructed deep in the 1960s by a chap who didn't own a set-square or spirit-level but the hand-shower flow was instantly hot and copious, and that's what matters. Similarly, the twin beds were not ornate, but the mattress was firm, and the sheets fresh and crisp at the end of the day. There was no TV in the room, just a small fridge for drinks, but I don't watch Greek programs, and the Wi-fi was fast and reliable.

The location was close to the main attractions of the city and the metro station. The AC worked which was amazing. Room was pretty clean.

In general the downtown city of Athens is like a ghetto, but no different than other cities I’ve been to in US (be prepared for many homeless people and drug addicts outside). Be aware of your surroundings. This isn’t the fault of the hotel. I travelled in a group of two women and we felt generally safe.

Friendly and helpful staff. Simple good value room, no luxury but for the price I wouldn't expect that. Breakfast was really good with decent coffee.

The only detraction was the scruffy elevator which gave a negative impression.

The friendliness of the people. The personalized attention, even if sometimes they didn't even speak English...

Very simple breakfast. One of the bed springs was broken...

This is my 3rd stay at this hotel for work in 2022. Very safe area compared to other hotels on side streets. I like the sidewalk goes straight to metro and grocery store up hill to the right. I am a Female alone and absolutely can endorse it as good hotel

NEW FRIDGE,A/C UNIT FOR HEATING,HOT WATER,DAILY CLEANING,CHANGE OF TOWELS AND SHEETS,FREE SOAP-SHAMPOO,BEDS WITHOUT ANY BEDBUGS!

I 'VE STAYED A LOT OF TIMES AT THIS HOTEL,SINCE JUNE 2013.THERE WASN'T AT ALL ANY DOOR IN THE ROOM'S WARDROBE.NO TV SET.

It's very well located.

The breakfast is not worth the price.

The hotel's central location, friendly staff, and spacious rooms made for an excellent stay. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient accommodation.

While the hotel was a bit dated, the friendly staff and comfortable accommodations more than made up for it. Just be cautious of a few unsafe roads nearby if traveling at night.
