Novotel Athenes

The hotel was excellent. The rooftop has a great view of the Acropolis. The area is not so good, but you can take a taxi right at the door. Excellent hotel!

this hotel is in a really unsafe area, I would not recommend, the streets are full of homeless immigrants that’s seemed to crowd together especially at night. The hotel itself is fine rooms are a little fun Down but the rooftop pool is nice and staff are helpful. Q

The hotel is wonderful. It is extremely comfortable and the staff is amazing. The only downside is that it is not really public transportation friendly. You have to be prepared to walk or take cabs. We rented a car so for us the free arming was fantastic.

Hotel itself was perfect, very neat and in good service with nice rooftop pool. The surrounding of the hotel was terrible and just like a dangerous slum, where my children were really scared and would not go out from the hotel.

The hotel was relatively modern with rooms that look like they have been updated recently. Check in was quick. Onsite parking was free in the basement. Location is pretty good and pretty easy to get to if you are driving. It was a short cab ride to Acropolis/Monastiraki area. Our room was a little cozy for 4 put typical of other single room hotels that can sleep 4 (2 kids). The main negative that I read before booking was that this hotel is in a sketchy area. I found the area to be typical of many other Athens neighboorhoods I have been in. There are a number of buildings in the area that are condemned but as far as not feeling safe, it was non issue for me. Plenty of people out and about going on with their lives. Use common sense at night and don't walk around in this area or most areas in Athens. Take a cab back if you are out late. Not much to see in this area anyways. Other negatives where that that bar on the roof was a little pricey. Our room had some weird noises from time to time, not sure if it had to do with pool/bar as we were on an upper floor. Did not notice them in the middle of the night. Pool was also pretty busy in the afternoon but was to be expected given this is high season. Staff was helpful with our requests and generally pleasant.
