Acropolis View Hotel, hotel in Athens

In the historic center of Athens, Acropolis View Hotel offers spectacular Parthenon views. The New Acropolis Museum and the metro station are just under half a mile away.

The staff at the front desk were extremely helpful and informative. When we checked in for our 2 night stay, we got a map and detailed information on how to walk to the historic sites. Later, Theodore arranged for airport transport for our departure, and got us reservations for a lovely dinner on New Year's Eve. Excellent variety of food served at breakfast on the rooftop terrace! Everything was delicious, and the view is the best!

    Second stay. Nice balcony. Beautiful ceiling height. Perfect for short stays visiting Acropolis. Friendly and responsive staff. Mostly true materials and not the cheap plastic fixtures and furnitures that are so common for modern budget hotels. Authentic and characteristic. Athens like it used to be in the 20th century. No fuss. Feels family-run. Great budget stay. Perfect location.

    My wife and I spent two wonderful nights at Anixi Hotel by AP, and it was superb. The hotel was very peaceful and clean, and the breakfast was generous and delicious. Special thanks to Thomas, who manages reception, room service, and other services, making guests very happy. The location is far from the city centre, it takes one hour to reach the city centre by the bus and the train. There's nothing bad to say about this hotel, and I recommend it to anyone on a budget looking for a good night's sleep and rest.

    Nice hostel, each bed has a curtain for some privacy and a little wall plug and light, spacious lockers, clean, very good bathrooms (sure the temperature of the showers is not 100% consistent but it’s not nearly as bad as some reviews had me believe), good price, good location, feels like one of the better neighbourhoods of Athens and right next to the metro to get into the city centre (or 30 minutes walking), kitchen is good and nice outside area to chill and maybe meet people
